Hey South West (of France) 🇫🇷 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ From Dordogne to Lot, it’s a short drive! These two departments are next to each other, even though they are in two different regions: Nouvelle-Aquitaine and Occitanie! And they are both gorgeous to visit! 😘 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1 - Saint-Cirq-Lapopie 2 - Grottes de Lascaux 3 - Rocamadour 4 - Beynac 5 - Figeac ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #visitfrance #francetravel #France #beautifuldestinations #travelreels #reelsofinstagram #prettylittletrips

A beautiful chateau sat high above the Dordogne River. Beautifully restored with some work still ongoing. The views are wonderful, and on a day like today are far reaching under a beautiful bright, crisp blue sky. An interesting history, well with a visit and at just over £7.50 it's not going to break the bank either. The walk up to the chateau is a little treacherous, the stoney streets are shiny from years of tourists treading the path to the chateau. Heard someone take a fall today, turned to see him land heavily. So it's well worth making sure that you wear some suitable shoes with a good tread pattern. He looked in considerable pain and probably not the way he wanted to remember his day. There's plenty of parking, in the village next to the river, just above the village and then at the top, close to the entrance to the chateau. Parking is about four euros for four hours or two euros 30 cents for two hours.

Definitely worth a visit. Very dog friendly (all the way round, the village, inside the castle and in the grounds - even sitting in the restaurant nearby). We visited on a cloudy day in May but you wouldnt notice as there's so much to see. Key tip is dont panic about parking at the bottom as there's two good size car parks if you go up the hill (it looks like you're heading into narrow streets through the village). There's also a smaller car park at the top, which on the day we visited was half empty. Unless you park at the top there's a bit of a step climb to get up to the Chateau. The entry fee for adults is 11.5 euros each. Very worth it. The chateau dates back to 1100 (ish) and was the main residence for Eleanor of Aquitaine (Queen of France - and then Queen of England!) Also mother of Richard the LionHeart, who also lived at the Chateau for periods of his life.

This château is under going a renovation, but don't let that stop you from going. What has been renovated was done well. The audio tour was the best, easy to use and interesting with period music and background sounds to make you feel like you are there. The views from the castle are super. The château isn't decorated with a bunch of furniture reproductions, but just enough to give you a feel of the purpose of the room. The entry price was reasonable and the 3€ cost of the audio tour is a bargain. You only need one for a family of four. Do not park down at the river level unless you want the exercise. There is plenty of parking at the top, next to the castle. Don't park in the first lot you drive into. Drive farther and you'll find closer and easier parking spots. The approach to the château is pretty and you won't find a bunch of junky tourist shops.
