The Beaumont area presents a thousand good reasons to
explore it, with its attractive bastides (beaumont, Molieres),
its picturesque villages (Monsac, Montferrand), and its
well-preserved historical buildings, both small (dovecotes,
wash-places) and large (castles, churches).
Some sites are a not to be missed: the abbey at St Avit
Senieur, classified as a UNESCO world heritage site; the
fortified church of Beaumont; Bannes and Montferrand castles
…where echoes remain of the sound of battle ; the
murals in St Christopher church; the stackhouse which
will surprise you; the dolmens...
In addition, the Beaumont area offers you the charms of
its many footpaths (110 kms of marked paths), its comfortable
gites, not forgetting its culinary genius based on the
exceptional quality of the local produce from truffles
to stawberries to foie gras.
