Dear Veronique... Just a brief word to thank you for all your help and guidance during the past few months. It was greatly appreciated. My visit to the apartment in Vinassan went very smoothly. - Mr D. Williams (December 2007)
 

Aquitaine region

Main towns: Bordeaux & Perigueux

Average annual temperature: 9ºC to 27ºC

 

Dordogne

Taking its name from the river that runs through its heart, this region has a wonderful mix of prehistoric caves famous for their ancient art, châteaux and medieval towns and villages.

A rich regional cuisine boasts delicacies such as Foie Gras and truffles, which can also be found at the daily markets.

 

Perigueux, the thriving capital and regional administration centre combines modern-day life with the picturesque, historic architecture of an ancient past.

Traditionally rural, this region has a gentle pace of life.

 

Gironde

On the South West Atlantic coast, the Gironde has long stretches of golden sandy beach, rolling atlantic waves and scented pine forests. It is home to the huge ‘Dune du Pilat’, a world heritage site and the magnificent bay of Arcachon. Famous the world over for its Bordeaux wine, the mild climate offers long hot summers and mild winters.

 

Rural Gironde - beautiful old villages, overlooking miles of ancient vineyards – is a striking contrast to cosmopolitan Bordeaux with its stunning architecture, designer shops and multitude of restaurants.
