Availability & Booking

Climate

The area has a temperate climate, and enjoys relatively mild winters with long spring and autumn seasons. The summers here can be very hot and dry – ideal for sun lovers. Out of high season the weather is often pleasantly warm, making the area an excellent choice for a relaxing holiday in or out of season

How to get there

La Roche can be reached by flying to Bergerac with Ryanair (Stansted) or Flybe (e.g. Southampton, Bristol).  The flight is about 1½ hours and the house is 10 miles from the airport.  Alternatively, BA and Ryanair fly to Bordeaux.  Again, the flight is about 1½ hrs and then there's a 1½-hr drive to the house.  Driving down through France can be done in a day, or you can have a more leisurely start to your holiday with an overnight stop, perhaps in the Loire valley.  With the building of the A20, the journey can now be done very easily and virtually toll-free south of Orleans.
