St. Vivien is a delightful village in the middle of the Bergerac vineyards. The 12th Century church is the focal point in the village. There is also a village shop/bar, and tennis court, all within a one-kilometre walk of Le Roc Nord. The wonderful countryside of the Dordogne and its perfect climate - warm but not unbearably hot boasting over 1000 hours of sunshine a year - makes it THE place for a memorable holiday. There is a strong sense of the medieval throughout the towns and villages of the Dordogne. The most outstanding is Sarlat. The goldbricked houses and courtyards form the nucleus of France's most authentic medieval town. The river flows onwards through Castillon-la-Bataille, the scene of the last battle in the Hundred Years War, which is re-enacted every year during July and August.
The area around Sarlat is essentially farming country and the alluvial soils along the valley support a bountiful agriculture based on tobacco, fruit, maize, wheat and walnuts. Further west past Bergerac, the valley widens into a flatter landscape and vineyards become increasingly common. The Bastide town Ste. Foy-la-Grande with its weekly market and museum of the Dordogne River is well worth a visit. The local delicacies of the area include foie gras, confit, and magret du canard, truffles, cépes and walnuts. The Dordogne joins the Gironde estuary just north of Bordeaux. This beautiful city is the centre of arguably the greatest wine growing area in the world - whatever the Australians may think! You can visit all the famous vineyards in the area to sample - 'dégustation' - their wines. St Emilion, Pomerol, Médoc, Bordeaux, Montbazillac and Bergerac are all on the doorstep.
