Location

We are situated in the Dordogne region of south west France near the pretty market village of St Genies...

We are 200km east of Bordeaux, 50km west of Brive le Gaillarde, 15km north of beautiful medieval Sarlat and 10km south of Montignac (where you can visit the famous Lascaux cave paintings).

The nearest hamlet to us which is recognised by the Michelin road atlas is Brégégère. That's about two km from us.

Directions...

Once you reach Brive it's a very straightforward half-hour run to Bombel. After passing the Lac de la Grande Prade look for the line of poplars on your left (about 5 miles on) and take the next left turn. Pass through the hamlet of Les Ans and follow the left-pointing sign for Bombel, on the side of a stone barn. We are about half a mile up the hill down a lane on the left opposite a stone cottage on the right.

We collect you from either Limoges airport or Brive la Gaillarde train station in our own vehicles each Sunday and return you there the following
Saturday for a fixed fee of £60 per individual.

This service is timed to meet the lunchtime (arr 13:05/dep 13:25) Ryanair flight from London Stansted or one of the early afternoon (arr 14:30-ish/dep 11:00 or later) trains. If you want a transfer at another time or on another day, please EMAIL US or Tel: 0033 (0)553 302405 in order to discuss the possibilities.

Transfers are conducted on a first come first served basis, therefore, detailed dates and times are to be agreed with us prior to booking your holiday. Limoges airport is 1hr 30mins away by car and you won’t reach Bombel until gone 15:00, so please make sure you have made arrangements for your lunch

The optimum number of participants on a course is eight, but sometimes we have fewer than that and occasionally take up to twelve.
