VISITING BEAUTIFUL BRANTÔME . DORDOGNE. FRANCE- ’23.
    We continue our cycling tour of the Dordogne, with a trip on the bikes from the campsite, to the gorgeous town of Brantôme.
    Brantôme is an idyllic town located to the north of Perigueux on the banks of the River Dronne.
    The town is known locally as the Venice of Perigord. Wooded cliffs loom up behind the beautiful Benedictine abbey and the river Dronne runs around the village in front of the Abbey, which has its origins in the 8th century.
    We have a lovely walk around the town, have lunch in the gorgeous gardens and have a thoroughly great day out!
    Well worth visiting.!!!
