The mansion is situated between meadows and forests and is surrounded by a beautifully landscaped garden with paths and lighting.

You can also visit several weekly markets in the pretty villages throughout the area. In this region you will find well-marked hiking trails and almost every weekend in the immediate vicinity you can find a French village festival. Saint Saud is known for its “fête de cepes” (Festival of Chestnuts and Cepes [King Boletus mushrooms]) on the first Sunday of October. Slightly farther away (60 km) there is the capital of the Dordogne, "Periqueux". You must see this city! The old city center has lively shopping streets, squares, beautiful authentic buildings with slate roofs, cafes, restaurants (in all price ranges) and exclusive fashion. For the purchase of porcelain you should go to Limoges, about an hour’s drive from Saint Saud. Bordeaux is also definitely worth a visit. 15 km away lies the town of Nontron, where you can do your shopping in the old village. At the same distance you can find castles and vineyards.
