About the location
Brantôme (pop. 2,100), which is known as the Venice of the Dordogne, lies in the beautiful Dromme valley. The town has an abbey which was founded in 769, in the reign of Charlemagne, rebuilt in the 11th C. and altered in the 19th. In the nearby Château de Richemont (16th C.) Pierre de Bourdeille, Seigneur de Brantôme, wrote his "Vies des Dames Galantes". The oldest part of the abbey is the free-standing bell-tower of the church (11th C.), which stands on a rocky crag.
The abbey now houses the Musée Fernand-Desmoulin, with works by the artist of that name (born in Périgord in 1835) and archeological finds from the surrounding area. Brantôme has a host of exceptional restaurants and shops.
Many places of interest nearby include Château de Richemont Home of the Abbots of Brantôme. The village of Villars offers three attractions; the Château de Puyguilhem, the Abbaye de Boschaud and the prehistoric caves at the Grotte de Villars.
Bourdeilles just further downstream from Brantôme, has a 16th Century Renaissance Château built alongside the earlier 12th Century Fortress. Mareuil-sur-Belle, a market town, has a variety of bars and restaurants as well as a good selection of shops.
Périgueux, 20 minutes away, is the principal city of the region and has much to offer in the way of sophisticated shopping and fine dining to suit all tastes and pockets. The markets on Wednesdays and Saturdays are an absolute must. Château de Hautefort, Sarlat, Bergerac and Cognac are all within 'day-trip' distance as is the fabulous pilgrimage to the vineyards of Bordeaux.

Guest comments and feedback
4/5 - Derek & Maureen Golden
Myself my husband and three adult children stayed in La Claperie in 2009. It is a beautiful, comfortable house in its own grounds.
Surrounded by trees it is a haven of peace and tranquillity, we relaxed by the private pool every day, enjoying the sounds of the birds and, if we were very still, the playful antics of a family of rabbits!
La Claperie is within walking distance of the lovely town of Brantome which has lots of great restaurants and shops, there were lots of things to do for every age.
David could not have been more helpful, and also the local couple who looked after the house and garden were lovely.
We could not recommend this house highly enough and will certainly be back.

La Claperie has proved to be a winning experience for all generations of our family, young and not-so-young! Located in beautiful surroundings, yet with easy access to the vibrant yet historic town of Brantome, this is a truly exceptional property. Spacious, well-furnished and equipped, and with an outstanding woodland garden to both front and rear – utopia for children with a sense of fun and adventure!
The extensive swimming pool area is perfect for cooling off during the long, sunny days of summer, while the terrace, which fronts the entire length of this delightful house, provides the perfect spot for evening barbecues. Ideal for winding down and recharging the batteries of the more energetic house guests.
Brantome, two minutes by car or a leisurely fifteen minute stroll from La Claperie, boasts a host of eateries ranging from street cafes to the gastronomic Moulin de l’Abbaye. There is also the added challenge of canoing over the weir opposite the historic abbey!
