This chateau is very close to what you might think of as "a small charming castle in the countryside." The hosts are very welcoming and aim at meeting every guest and their individual needs. The owners of the chateau place great importance of french tradition. However the chateau offers modern amenities and high class accommodation. The property is situated in... More

This beautiful château is not far from Bordeaux, quiet, elegant. Catherine and Yves were perfect hosts, and the food in the restaurant was excellent. Rooms were spacious, clean, and the grounds were beautiful. I would recommend this place to anyone! Great for day trips around the countryside More

The grounds of this "chateau" are immaculately maintained, as are the insides, and the room we used were spotless and clean. The TV in the room was tiny but understandably,... More
