THE HOUSE IN ITS SETTING
Exceptional peace reigns at “La Grange”
Other properties surround « La Grange », but each owner does his best to keep the hamlet quiet. In Pyraine, silence is priceless. No cars, no comings and goings, no noisy walkers, Pyraine is at the end of a little country lane. The forest is all around and you can go hiking on lots of official and well signposted routes. During your long walks you may suddenly see wild animals such as deer, rabbits, pheasants or a family of wild boar.
Chateaux to be discovered during your drives
Many can be visited, others are private, but just to fall lucky and suddenly “discover” one is a great joy.
The prehistoric sites and their fantastic caves have made this area world famous.
You can drive there within 45 minutes (average time). 
The Dordogne is a long quiet river on which you can canoe, picnic, swim or fish. You will love its unique landscapes, the chateaux and the wild geese.
The Dordogne area is also famous for its gastronomy
There are many restaurants, all in competition with each other to serve you the best local dishes flavoured with wild truffles, mushrooms, foie gras ...
On the weekly markets, rich in fresh fruit and vegetables, you can find unusual products
such as spaghetti-
The garage sales are great fun. Every Sunday in the litlle villages around Pyraine, people sell old furniture, objects, clothes and toys at ridiculous prices. In a fun atmosphere you can hunt for treasures!
The village meals are also a must. Suddenly tables and chairs appear in the streets, the barbecues flare up. The local ham and cheese makers, and also the wine dealers, all bring out their goodies to be tasted. All this in the middle of laughter and sometimes a brass band.
Wine tasting
In the neighbourhood of Pyraine, vine culture is a little miracle! In less than forty five minutes you can visit the world famous vineyards of Monbazillac and St Emilion Visiting is also another way of discovering the less well known wines of Bergerac or Pecharmant that are perfect for everyday meals (less than 30 minutes drive away).
For sportsmen.
