Chabrignac
La Grillon - great Limousin cuisine. Try the Tournedos de boeuf - it's amazing!
Lou Cantou

There's a kayak centre here. Just near the bridge, there is a long driveway which turns left into a car park type space. They hold their weekly food markets here, and there's a hut where they keep the kayaks. You need to book a kayak, and there's a leaflet at the house.

Great for the kids. You take a velorail (it's like a bike on a railway track). It's hard work on a very hot day, but fun! You stop off half way through the trip for a drink, a pee and an ice cream and then return the way you came.

Similar to Saint Robert, I like the views from here and there's some good restaurants. Plus they do a great market night.

Donzenac
They do a great medieval festival here each year - check out when it is.
I've only been once, but it was memorable for its red stone buildings and walls, lovely streets with little cafés (waffles with chocolate was my daughter's favourite) and we enjoyed a walk round a small farm.
