Les Charmes is a rural property and you will have to drive to the shops, there is however one restaurant that can be reached on foot, Les Peyrouliers which is about 1.5 kms away.
The nearest shops are in Monpazier, about 7kms away, though the nearest supermarkets are to be found in Villereal and Beaumont, both of which are about 10kms away.
The Bastide towns each have a weekly market, excellent for fresh produce, with an especially good one at Issigeac on a Sunday morning with a much wider range of goods and local crafts. During the summer season there are weekly night markets, which are great places to eat – but be there early before all the tables are filled!!
There are many good restaurants within a 12km radius, providing for a wide range of tastes and budgets. Most of these provide set menus and are especially good value at lunch time. Further details on local restaurants are available in the information packs at the properties.
