Best Luxury Hotels in the Dordogne
Famous for its wine and wineries, fresh produce and cuisine, beautiful landscapes and stunning châteaux, sunshine and charming towns, the Dordogne is a magical holiday destination. It’s the sort of place where you can really relax and explore, and treat yourself! Maybe it’s the fine food and drink? maybe it’s the elegant châteaux? but the Dordogne feels like a place to luxuriate. And why not luxuriate fully by adding to your trip by staying in a luxury hotel. There are hundreds to choose from, starting with boutique-style B&Bs and glamorous guesthouse or farmhouse conversions, running through classic five star grand dames, to staying in a grand château itself. There are luxury hotels in rural spots, and in the prettiest and most historic centres: Brantôme, which is known for its incredible medieval architecture and beautifully preserved old town; Sarlat, which is an area known for truffles, and for hosting one of the largest Saturday markets in Dordogne; lively Bergerac and Périgueux, with their bustling markets, fantastic historic sites, chic bars and hip restaurants; Domme, which is right on the river, and a great choice for outdoor activities; and Les Eyzies and Montignac, which are close to the prehistoric cave art of the Vézère Valley.
