Le Manoir St Sulpice
The Area
The village of St Sulpice d'Excideuil offers a taste of genuine France. With a population of just 335, the village offers a timeless quality with the majority of the villagers' families going back generations. It benefits from its rural location but is not isolated with city access just a short drive away.
St Sulpice d'Excideuil
The fortified 12th century church is at the heart of the village, with a small bar and bustling village shop opposite, stocking local produce, fresh bread and food essentials. You can be sure of a warm welcome from Florence and have the opportunity to test out your very best French!
Visitors to the village are welcomed to numerous events throughout the year, including concerts, the annual Randonee Gourmande ( a 10km evening walk with food and wine stops) in July and a night market in August, where alfresco dining is enjoyed under the stars, seated at long trestle tables.
There are numerous marked walks eminating from St Sulpice d'Excideuil and the other surrounding villages. We have maps you can borrow to help you explore this beautiful corner of France.
