What if you treated yourself to a true getaway for two, just 2 hours away from Bordeaux?

A stay where you slow down, breathe… and even take to the skies.

Welcome to the Dordogne, and more precisely in Saint Vincent de Cosse, in the heart of the Dordogne valley in Périgord Noir.

An easy escape from Bordeaux, in the heart of the Dordogne

As you leave Bordeaux, the landscape changes. Vineyards give way to rolling hills, the roads become more winding… and you can already feel the pace slowing down.

In less than two hours, you arrive in a preserved valley, dotted with charming villages and iconic castles such as the Château des Milandes (former house of the famous Josephine Baker) or the Château de Beynac.

This is where Stéphanie and Fabrice welcome you, in their Guest house Les Hauts de Saint Vincent, a 18th-century home, with panoramic views over the Dordogne Valley.

A place designed to reconnect, to take your time… and simply enjoy.

A unique experience: a hot air balloon flight over the Dordogne

This is often the moment our guests never forget.

At sunrise or sunset, you can get on board directly from our garden into our hot air balloon.

Within minutes, the ground drifts away… and the Dordogne reveals itself differently.

The winding river, golden cliffs, hilltop villages… everything becomes softer, almost unreal.

The flight lasts about one hour, in an intimate basket of 4 to 6 passengers, allowing you to fully experience the moment and interact with the pilot.

Fabrice, the owner and also pilot of Vol en Ballon company , is the one who flies with you. And what he loves most is that moment when silence settles in… and everyone simply looks up.

Extending the experience in our guest house

After the flight, back on land… but the feeling stays with you.

Your stay continues at Les Hauts de Saint Vincent, in one of our rooms overlooking the valley.

Here, you take your time:

• enjoying breakfast facing the view
• relaxing by the pool
• or sharing a dinner at our table d’hôtes

Stéphanie cooks with seasonal, local and mostly organic products, to extend the Dordogne experience onto your plate.

Because a beautiful stay is not only about what you see… but also what you feel.

A getaway for two, close to home yet a true escape

No need to travel far to experience something meaningful.

Just 2 hours from Bordeaux, the Dordogne offers a rare combination:
nature, heritage, gastronomy… and suspended moments.

Whether for a weekend or a few days, it’s the perfect destination to reconnect as a couple and create lasting memories.

And perhaps… leave with unforgettable images, seen from the sky.
