How about a little “So British” stop on the road to Périgord? Situated at the top of a gentle hill, Saint Barthelemy d'Agenais welcomes you in a truly cozy atmosphere, in the heart of this village where the language of Shakespeare is heard more than anywhere else in the Val de Garonne.

Why such enthusiasm among our English friends?

Because the countryside around the village of Saint Barthelemy looks exactly like the County of Dorset in the southwest of England, with its landscapes of cultivated fields and hills. Ideally located halfway between Marmandais and Bergeracois, its inhabitants can enjoy the many treasures of the Dordogne and the gentle way of life of the Val de Garonne.

 

Traveling along the road to Duras and its famous castle, don't miss Miramont, Lauzun and the beautiful village of Allemans-du-Dropt, whose Saint Eutrope church is decorated with magnificent Gothic frescoes. The nearby Lot valley offers you the panorama of Laparade or the enchanted water lily garden of Latour-Marliac at Temple-sur-Lot.

And since after the effort comes comfort, the Plaisance will delight your palate as surely as the surrounding landscapes will have delighted your heart.
