Tayac

Tayac is a very small picturesque village that is part of Les Eyzies de Tayac, although it does not get as overly busy as Les Eyzies.
Tayac is built up against a hill, and around the fortified church and monument "St. Martin".
Tayac is about 800 years older than Les Eyzies, and has a lot of hidden secrets from the Prehistoric Periode, such as a "Roman Temple", Neanderthal settlements, a pre-historic troglodyte site, and a spring that contains healing powers.


Being just 10 minutes walking distance from Les Eyzies it is a very nice place to stay if you wish to keep away from the tourist crowds and busy main street.
B&B Ferme de Tayac, next to St Martin is a former 12th century Farmhouse and Monastery is rated the #1 B&B in the Dordogne. Rooms are large and cozy, and all have a view.
