The park at Château de Campagne, near Le Bugue on the way to Les Eyzies and Sarlat in the Dordogne-Périgord region, has been redesigned in the style of 19th-century English-influenced garden compositions (green corridor, peninsula, serpentine and kitchen garden).
Planted with century-old redwoods and cedars, it offers a bucolic stopover, in a setting of conservatory orchard, arboretum, or along the restored Chemin des Dames staircase: 139 steps and a 22-meter drop, decorated with lanterns.
Ideal for summer evening concerts, it's a gateway to the forest of Campagne, where you can stroll free of charge every day of the year. The château is not open to the public, but does host temporary exhibitions. It was listed as a historic monument on April 5, 2001, along with its outbuildings, park and fences.
