Lizeth and Jean-Claude offer a warm welcome to La Perugordine which is located in an area of natural beauty with a panoramic view of the “vallée de l'Homme”. The grounds with the swimming pool are a restful retreat from touring the Périgord Noir. The picturesque village of Tursac a few hundred metres away has several restaurants and shops selling local delicacies and artisanal products. The commune of Tursac is home to l'abri de la Madeleine a troglodyte city, le Préhistoparc (for children) and the Chateau de MARZAC (opposite to our grounds)

Tursac is 5 km from Les Eyzies de Tayac which has been classified as one of the worlds premier sites of prehistory and where can be found the caves of Combarelles, Font-de-Gaume, l'abri de Cap Blanc et l'abri Pataud and Le Musée National de la Préhistoire. The National Museum of Prehistory Les Eyzies de Tayac houses the most important paleolithic collection in France (stone and bone tools and the worlds premier collection of paleolithic engravings and sculpture). It is at present undergoing considerable extension works, which will give the museum a surface area of more than 4700 m2. (exhibition rooms, laboratories, activities, services, etc..)

La Perugordine, in the heart of the Périgord Noir, is in the Vézère valley. The Vézère Valley contains 147 prehistoric site and 25 decorated caves. It flows from its source in the Massif Central to the Dordogne River (about 190km). The magical Vézère valley, witness to human occupation for 400,000 years and classed as a world heritage site by UNESCO, covers an area of more than 50 kilometres where the most celebrated and important European prehistoric sites can be discovered. Other sites of interest in close proximity are the famous Lascaux caves Montignac (17 km), the Château de Losse and l'Espace Cro-Magnon du Thot at Thonac (14km), Sarlat the ancient capital of the Périgord Noir (20 km), and the troglodyte dwellings of the Roque St Christophe which retraces 55,000 years of occupation on 800 metres of rock face at Le Moustier (3 km). Saint Léon sur Vézère (8km), dominated by the côte de Jor, (magnificent panorama) is classed as one of the most beautiful villages of France, not far from there is the château de Chabans. At Le Bugue (16km), ‘door to the Vézère’ is the reconstructed village le Bournat which transports back in time to 1900. This village authentically reproduces village life in that century with its’ artisans, shopkeepers and farmers going about their daily routines. Near to the village Le Bournat is the aquarium of the Périgord Noir and the subterranean Gouffre de Proumeyssac the largest crater to explore in the Périgord. Finally at Limeuil (24km), a very pretty village, one can witness the majestic meeting of the Dordogne and the Vézère rivers. Numerous sporting activities nearby include; golf, canoe/kayak hire, tennis (500 metres from the property), horse riding and cycle hire.
