Montignac castle Rental Property Information
The valley of the Vézère river, which winds through the limestone hills of Southwest France in the Dordogne region, is one of the oldest inhabited parts of Europe. With its lush river meadows framed by rocky cliffs, which the forces of nature had over millions of years carved into deep caves and naturally sheltered terraces, it made an ideal home for the nomadic Stone Age peoples who gathered there to make permanent settlements, some of the earliest on the continent. The famous painted caves of Lascaux are only one of many truly awe-inspiring sites that they created during the tens of thousands of years that they lived in this favored spot.
Whether your interests lie in prehistory, medieval châteaux perched on cliff tops, picturesque villages or ancient towns, superb restaurants, country markets or renowned wines, you will find yourselves well placed to enjoy this special corner of France to the full.

| Notes: |
Nothing sets HomesAway apart more than our Local Hosts. They wear many hats during your stay: guide, companion, advisor, translator, local friend around the corner and troubleshooter… available for up to 15 hours your first week, 10 hours in subsequent weeks - or more if you choose.
Your Local Host prepares the home for your arrival, greets you at the door and makes sure you are properly introduced to your new surroundings. Best of all, they are available throughout your holiday to help you plan or fine tune your daily itinerary. You might ask them to guide you around the local markets, introduce you to the village baker, point you to the best artisan shops, or arrange a special wine tasting.
And while you’re off on your own, they work behind the scenes, making the arrangements you have requested – a cook for a special dinner, a hard-to-get restaurant reservation, a high chair or any other special need.
