Company description  

General description  :   The former province of the PERIGORD is now known as the Dordogne. Between Paris and Pyrenees, midway between Pole and Equator, the region is crossed by the Transeuropean road ans the 45th parallel. Its location gives it a particulary mild climate, pleasant in all seasons.
It is a land of rich variety, set between ocean, continental and mountain areas.
The gentle hues of such diversity are symbolised by the four colours of the Perigord, four regions in one.

Today and tomorrow, discover all the riches which go to make the PERIGORD a cultural highspot of tourisme set in peerless natural splendour. The PERIGORD is a quartet which will always help you to the right note.

To the north, the PERIGORD VERT, pays du Nontronnais du Val de Dronne, with its Natural Park Regional Périgord -Limousin, offers a greenery of verdant growth and valleys in a region crossed by a myriad of rivers and streams.
The Dronne, the Bandiat, the high valleys of the rivers Isle and Auvézère stretch from Lanouaille to La Roche-Chalais, encompassing Nontron, Brantôme, Bourdeilles and Ribérac.
