The village of Beynac-et-Cazenac is thought to date back to the 12th century when its imposing cliff top château was constructed.
Standing out as one of the most charming towns in the region, this medieval dwelling remains much as it was when it was built in the 14th century.
It's hard to imagine a nicer village than La Roque-Gageac, with its huge limestone cliffs that tower behind the Renaissance-style houses built in creamy stone with burnt red roofs.
This bastide town, sitting high above the Dordogne river, has an impressive number of its 13th century fortifications still intact, including three of its original gates.
The relaxed town of Le Bugue sits on the river Vézère where it's joined by the Doux. A more tranquil base for exploring the region, it has some pretty, narrow streets and a bustling market twice a week.
