The luxurious Château les Merles, located 10 minutes from Bergerac, welcomes you year-round for an unforgettable stay in an elegant and refined setting. Twelve newly renovated rooms, two suites, and a spacious apartment offer modern comforts. The contrast between the 17th-century architecture and contemporary design creates a captivating ambiance. The gourmet restaurant, Les Merles, and the Golf Château les Merles complete this luxurious experience. Three luxurious villas on the golf course are also available for families or groups. The hotel is nestled in the Dordogne hills, ideally situated between Sarlat and Bordeaux. From here, explore the medieval villages of the Périgord, journey into prehistory at the Lascaux and Font de Gaume caves, or visit the Hundred Years' War castles of Beynac and Castelnaud.
