L’Abri Tranquille is situated in a tiny hamlet in the commune of Nanteuil-Auriac-de-Bourzac in the north of the Dordogne department. The nearest town with a restaurant and boulangerie is Salles Lavalette, a 5 minute drive, which is actually over the border in the Charente.
A ten minute drive away is the lovely little town of Saint Severin which has a number of shops and restaurants including a Spar and a wonderful boulangerie; while the larger towns of Villebois Lavalette (with a Super U supermarket) and Verteillac are both a 15 minute drive. Riberac has one of the largest weekly markets around as well as Intermarche, E Leclerc and Aldi supermarkets, and is only a 22 minute drive away.
Aubeterre-sur-Dronne, officially listed as "one of the most beautiful villages in France" since 1993 is just a 20 minute drive through glorious countryside.
