This excellent restaurant lies in the heart of a busy village in the NW Dordogne department. The building dates from 1855 and is quite beautiful! The village has everything from shops to bars, huge general store, pharmacy, cultural centre, two hairdressers, bank, post office, butchers, bakers, antique shops, B&B's, art gallery, hotel, doctors, dentist, school, street market and big monthly "car boot" ; in fact, all you'll ever need is right on the doorstep!

The restaurant comes with a fully equipped professional kitchen and a lot of goodwill! It occupies the ground floor of the most lovely building in the village, with arched windows to the front and along the side, as well as the glazed front entrance. Inside, it is light and spacious with cut stone walls, high ceilings and oak floors. I love this room! The pre-meal drinks area has a bar with a couple of stools to sit and enjoy a glass or two before proceeding to your table! The restaurant is an impressive sixty metres square and with the kitchen and separate toilets , the total area is one hundred square metres.
The village is currently undergoing an expensive and thorough improvement program which will enlarge the outside dining terrace, five-fold. This will, along with the inside seating area, amount to approximately ninety covers! High visibility and existing trade will give a sound platform for the new owners!

The Dordogne is France's third largest department, and as well as numerous picturesque villages, it also boasts an incredible 4,000 chateaux, 10% of all the chateaux in France. Many people, including many expatriates,
feel that the Dordogne is one of the most beautiful regions of France.
The Dordogne has traditionally been one of the most popular department for foreign buyers, including many British,
Irish and Dutch home owners. Like many French departments, the Dordogne is named after the river that flows through it. Foie gras, duck and goose are regional specialities.
The department has four distinct territories. In the north you will find 'Green Périgord' which derives its name from its many green valleys and woodland, covered with trickling
streams, and houses the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park. The major towns in the area are Brantome (the "Venice" of the Dordogne), Nontron and Riberac.
In the centre
of the department is 'White Périgord', so called because of its limestone plateaux. It contains the capital of the Dordogne, Périgueux, with attractive shopping centre and marvellous
winding old town.
The 'Purple Périgord', in the South West of the department, is named from the area's grapes, which are put to good use in Bergerac, the capital of this wine
producing region. The area was of great strategic significance during the hundred years war, and visitors will find a number of fortified villages, castles and chateaux built by both
the English and the French here.
In the south-east you'll find 'Black Périgord', with deep valleys and ancient forests. It contains the towns of Saint-Cyprien and Sarlat-la-Caneda,
which are both popular with foreign buyers. It houses numerous prehistoric caves with some 30,000 year old cave paintings.
Nearest international airports are Limoges, Bergerac
and Bordeaux with regular flights back to the UK, and the department has good motorway and TGV access.
