The Chateau is a magical place of style and beauty. We loved our time here, using it as a base to explore St Emillion but enjoying the privacy and peace it offered. Corinne cooked us fabulous dinners and cooking together in the kitchen was a treat. Even when it got too hot outside, the thick stone walls of the house provided a cool sanctuary. Stunning!

Absolutely fantastic. Far better than the photos show it even though the photos are brillant! Absolutely immaculate throughout like a 5 star hotel. Highly recommend.
