B&B Ferme de Tayac
Most people visiting the Vezere and Dordogne Valley have an interest in history, so why not stay a few nights in an historic B&B. in the heart of it all. B&B Ferme de Tayac, a 12th century former farmhouse / monastery ideally situated in Les Eyzies de Tayac, in the heart of the Vezere Valley, known as the "Prehistoric Capital of the World" In the beginning of the 12th century, the monks of the monastery of Paunat settled in Tayac, and started building the fortified church of Tayac, Saint Martin. At the same time they started buiding "Ferme de Tayac" which became the working farm and monastery for the monks. In 2001 Suzanne & Mike purchased Ferme de Tayac after it had been unoccupied for over 10 years. It was in a sorry state, and was deemed dangerous and a hazard. It took Suzanne & Mike 7 years to bring Ferme de Tayac back to it's former glory. With among other things, meter thick walls, rooms built into solid rock, oak beam structures, and bedrooms in former monks quarters make Ferme de Tayac a speacial and very unique place to stay whilst visiting the Dordogne, and it is not hard to see why Ferme de Tayac has been the travellers choice of accommodation for 2 years. Ferme de Tayac is an ideal place to use as a base to explore this stunning region.
