Local activities in and around Montignac, Aquitaine/Dordogne
La Chapelle Aubareil is a typical French village with a church and square as a focal point overlooked by the school and mairie and café/bar/restaurant. The provisions shop fulfils everyday basic needs and fresh bread is available daily at the village bakery. All shopping requirements can be satisfied 8 km away in Montignac, where there is also the nearest supermarket on the road to Thonac. The best local markets are held at Montignac, Terrasson and Sarlat and a small Sunday market is most handy at the pretty village of St Genies.
La Chapelle Aubareil has two hotels with restaurants and there is also great food at Le Bareil, a restaurant within walking (stumbling coming back) distance from La Rouchie, which is open in the summer. There is a very good tennis court in the village and lake swimming at Tamnies. There are several golf courses within driving distance. La Rouchie itself is a hamlet of seven typical Périgordean houses about a kilometre from La Chapelle Aubareil. The area is abundant with footpaths and woodland tracks. Lovers of bird life will be pleased to see the many large birds of prey, owls and woodpeckers and many other species that inhabit the woodland around the house. In lazy moments you can sit in the garden and watch the lizards run up the walls and butterflies flutter in the grass. It is a very quiet hamlet with only a few residents’ vehicles coming and going, so there is little danger for the children.
La Chapelle Aubareil is approx 3 kms from the D704 Montignac to Sarlat road. Full directional details will be given on booking.
