Please note:

All times and distances are approximate and straight through (and clear) runs using the main motorway/Péage routes without refuelling/breaks etc - Dordognehomes.com does not suggest that you complete your journey in one go and that you should take regular driving/rest breaks (a good system to use when driving is that of goods vehicles and only drive for a maximum of 4½hours and then take at least a ¾hour break before continuing).

Coloured road numbers refer to French (in red) and European (in bold green) assigned numbers.
