St Cyprien has a population of just over 1,500. Set in some 2,150 hectares of gently rolling countryside bounded to the south by the river Dordogne, it is part of the "Périgord Noir". The village itself clusters around the abbey church, creeping up the nearby hillside. The narrow winding streets are as charming as the houses that lie along them. All facilities are available in the village.
