 pfsmalo Says:  We sat out on the square in the evening sun whilst waiting for the owner. It really was beautiful, calm, no cars moving about, so very peaceful. Practically all the houses here date from the 16th c with half-timbered "bricou" frontages. A couple on the north side of the...

 ettenaj Says:  We found a couple of parks in Bergerac one was a good half an hours walk from the town centre but was worth the time just to sit by the pond and listen to the frogs, they where amazing, I have never heard such noisy little chaps in my life. 

 ettenaj Says:  This sounds really baoring, but it was not , in fact it is really interesting. A must if the weather is bad as you can spend quite a long time there, over the three floors. Many artifacts, even some cigarette boxes that I remember from when I was younger!!!!

 Canadienne Says:  We came across the Blanche Hermione while wandering through the vielle ville (old town) of Bergerac, but I remembered the name from the Rough Guide. It is superb ~ a cozy, intimate atmosphere, very welcoming and attentive waiter/owner, and terrific food at decent prices. We... 

 ettenaj Says:  Fly from Liverpool to Bergerac with Ryan Air ,flight time approx 1.45, we did it for £50 return per person. No frills no fuss airline but does the job just as well as any other. 10/10 highly recommened 

 Canadienne Says:  If you're interested in foie gras, there are a few specialty shops around Bergerac's vielle ville. In Sarlat, there was a harder sell in the stores, so this is a nice compromise (but I wasn't interested either way ~ it's not to my tastes).The Bergerac wines are also... 

 ettenaj Says:  Day trip from Bergerac, the Villars Grotto was discovered in 1953 by the Perigueux potholers club. It is the largest underground network in the Perigord, with more than 13kms explored to this day. The undeground river has hollowrd out huge chambers connected by huge... 

 Canadienne Says:  The first afternoon that we spent wandering around Bergerac's vielle ville, we got so caught up in noticing the little architectural details, that the camera slipped my mind entirely. It's always nice to have a break from composing shots. . .but on the second day I felt the...
