Enjoy outdoor activities in countryside untouched by commerce or time

Sports, Other Activities
One of the most striking contrasts of France is its ability to blend the old and the new so effortlessly. The country is one of Europe's most progressive technologically and has one of the world's best telephone and rail systems. A trip to Paris from Libourne or Bordeaux on the TGV will convince even the most doubtful of the country's ability to blend tradition with progress.

Sporting events dominate French life, including football (soccer) and, of course, bicycling. Bicycles are available at le Prieuré to tour some of the world's most beautiful, quiet and peaceful roads. Horseback riding is just a short distance from Biron and golf, canoeing and boating are close by.

Private Hot air balloon rides are very popular. Rides are dependent on good weather and must be booked well in advance.
