Very pretty villages and some amazing places to visit - the Gouffre de Padirac, Rocamadour and Lacave. The ride leading to Loubressac was one of the best - the downhill views were excellent so was Autorie a pretty village.
We had a fabulous week cycling in the Dordogne. The weather was perfect to enjoy the fantastic scenery and being spring, there were birds singing, loads of butterflies and beautiful wildflower meadows. All the hotels were good, particularly The Vieille Auberge, The Troubador and the Domaine de la Vaysse. There were enough long hills to make the most of the ebikes and equally there were some exciting long descents! Don't miss the Gouffre de Padirac. We would recommend anyone doing the circular route to Martel and Creysse on day 5 to carry on to St. Sozy and then to Meryonne over the Dordogne - both pretty villages and really not that much further. The whole journey took in all the best views and lovely villages and towns, and we could probably have spent a little longer at each since we had the luxury of ebikes. Superb!
A great holiday with wonderful villages and views around each corner (and over each hill!!), accompanied by nightingale songs. Going early in the season had the wonderful benefit of seeing many of the popular tourist destinations when they were quiet. The weather was also warm (almost totally dry) and perfect for cycling. All this topped off by great accommodation and food. Highly recommended.

We had an amazing cycling holiday in the outstandingly beautiful Dordogne region. All of the hotels en route were excellent and the standard of the cuisine could not be faulted. We particularly enjoyed the opportunity of being able to socialize and eat with our hosts at Domaine de la Vaysse. We would certainly recommend this holiday and will definitely be returning again in the future.
Inntravel’s preparation and planning for our bike ride in the Dordogne Valley, showed they were aware of the range of needs and interests their clients might have. We found the possible trips had some flexibility for both the weather and our varying physical abilities throughout the trip. We were provided sufficient time to explore very interesting sites. The only problem was that we ended up eating too much as most of the food provided at our places of stay was of such a high quality.
We thought we would be near to the River more often but also loved the forests, trees and views. Surprised there were so few animals to see. Loved the Moulin de Cougnanuet and the guided tour. Enjoyed the camaraderie of Domaine de la Vaysse and meeting other travellers. The food is excellent though you have to like French cuisine (doh!) as very few vegetables and lots of duck in one shape or form. Some great desserts. Only spent about 15 mins on Rocamadour - too touristy - but the view of it was great. Surprised that a lot of things seemed to be closing down early even though it wasn't even mid-September. But it meant few people about. Might want to add in that if the Gluges hotel/restaurant is closed, the camp site had a really handy cafe and good places to sit by the river. We used our extra day to go to Figeac on the train and that was interesting. The Gouffre de Padirac were worth doing and we only waited about half an hour to go in.
The Dordogne is a beautiful area to cycle in although there were a few more challenging (more from length than incline) hills than expected. We also didn't see as much of the Dordogne river as we had hoped. However, the routes were sufficiently long to enjoy the cycling but left a good amount of time on completion to enjoy some relaxation. We enjoyed the swimming pools at the end of each day. We found it better and much easier to use the GPS route finder than the written maps. We booked an e-bike for my wife which she enjoyed and without which, as a purely social cyclist, she would have struggled in the hot weather. The food in the hotels was generally very good. Overall, the whole experience was most enjoyable and we would do something similar again but perhaps at a cooler time of year and on a flatter route.
Looking out from the pool at Relais de Castelnau after an enjoyable day's ride; looking at the stars through the telescope at Hotel Troubadour; enjoying home made food in Vaysse and its welcoming hosts.
We had a wonderful time in the Dordogne area. Our accommodation and meals were excellent. The cycling exposed us to many small villages and oak forests providing a means to reduce the impact of all those great meals! Thank you Inntravel!
Cycling around the Dordogne - what a perfect way to see the outstanding beauty of the Dordogne. Cycling along very quiet country lanes and through picturesque hamlets was just ideal. The bikes were perfect for the hills and our luggage was always at the next hotel on arrival. The cycling notes were great with little notes on telling us where to shop for lunch and stop for drinks or icecreams or places of interest. Everything worked perfectly from transfers to cycling and would highly recommend it.
