About this property

Holiday with castle feeling

Spacious holiday apartment approx. 95 sqm in the south wing of a historic property whose roots go back to the 15th century. The 25 square meter peaceful terrace borders directly on the vineyards of the Sauternais.

The living space
The high quality apartment has two bedrooms for two people each on the upper floor. Bathroom with large shower and toilet at ground level. The kitchen is fully equipped with washing machine, hob, oven, dishwasher and fridge, Coffee maker, toaster, microwave.
On the sofa bed 2 more guests can stay overnight. Baby cot and high chair are available on request. There is homemade jam for the guests.

The neighbourhood
The accommodation is in Preignac, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France.
The idyllic Château Le Juge is situated directly in the famous Sauternais, about 40 kilometres from Bordeaux. There is a baker in the village, as well as a small grocery shop and restaurants. Several antique shops and wine growers with wine tasting offers are within walking distance. The famous castles Château de Cazeneuve, Château la Brede, Château de Malle and Château d'Yquem are only a few minutes' drive away.
Langon, the next bigger city, is only 5 minutes away by car. All major shops are also located here. Fridays are market days in Langon and Saturdays in Bazas. Golfers will find an 18 hole golf course http://www.golf-des-graves.com only a few kilometres away. The nearby river Ciron is a paradise for canoeists, the canoe rental is in the neighbouring village.

The Atlantic Ocean can be reached by motorway in about an hour. It takes a little longer to get there by road. Anyway Archachon with the dune of Pilat and a visit to the beach is a must for every journey here.

Besides, here's what you need to keep in mind:
Pets live in the castle - 2 large but peaceful dogs in the main house and 6 geese in the garden.
Agriculture - The holiday home borders directly on an organically cultivated vineyard. We inform you the day before when the winegrower is working there.

Stop by at any time - we look forward to your visit!

Nice stay amongst the vines.

Nice stay, lovely retreat we enjoyed the property! So did our children. Pool is lovely. The owners very welcoming. If you want a peaceful stay with access to the beach 1 hr away but away from the crowd then this is the place for you!

Beautiful chateaux stay!

A beautiful stay in a gorgeous location. Loved the little touches - homemade jam, sauterne wine - and Markus was really friendly and helpful. The home was well equipped and super comfortable, the pool was amazing. Loved the chickens (very amusing!) and the dogs!

Dear Hannah and family, I hope you had a pleasant trip home and arrived home safely. I would like to thank you very much for your stay in my guest apartment. It was a pleasure to have you as guests with me. I hope that you felt comfortable during your stay and that you lacked nothing. The chickens and dogs already miss you too! They have gotten so used to your visits and are a bit lonely now. It was nice to see how you paid attention to them. I hope you felt at home with me and that you take away fond memories of your stay with me. Should you be in the area again in the future, I would be happy to have you as guests again. Thank you again for your time with me and all the best to you! Best regards, Markus

Wonderfully charming and relaxed

My family, friends, and I had the best of times at Marcus' enchanted chateau. The place itself is even nicer and more exciting than the photos, the pool such a phantastic and in the summer heat welcome addition and the surrounding region full of beauty and stories. But the best of all is the gracious and helpful host himself who is doing such an amazing job with the chateau restauration. We felt he had become a friend in the short time we stayed there. Highly recommended.

Endless surprises, brilliant in every way

Patrick and Markus are the ultimate hosts. The property and their care was sublime. The gite is not only beautiful but also immaculately kitted out. We could have not been treated with more generosity and kindness. Le Juge is the definition of attention to detail. Out of our 6 weeks of travelling, this has been our favourite place! Truly special.

Un logement spacieux et bien rénové, au calme, avec une belle piscine et un décor vraiment reposant, accueillant et agréable. La wifi est un vrai plus !Les seuls bémols du logement sont le WC dans la salle d'eau, pas de volets aux fenêtres des chambres. Un peu plus de vaisselle notamment des verres et des couverts serait bien venus.Le reste est très bien équipé (grand canapé, grande télévision, lave-linge, lave-vaisselle, grande douche, linge de toilettes et de maison compris, ménage compris). Les lits étaient faits à notre arrivée, merci !!!Le secteur est calme et il est aisé de faire des activités sans surcharge de touristes. A quelques kilomètres le château de Cazeneuve est magnifique à visiter.

Chère Helene, Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire détaillé et positif sur votre séjour dans ma gîte ! Je suis très heureuse d'apprendre que vous vous êtes sentis à l'aise et que vous avez particulièrement apprécié le calme, la piscine et l'équipement du logement. Merci également pour vos remarques constructives. Je prends très au sérieux vos commentaires concernant l'absence de volets roulants et la solution pour la toilette, mais je ne peux malheureusement pas apporter d'améliorations à ce sujet dans un avenir proche. Pour la vaisselle, il vous suffisait de m'en parler, car j'ai certainement de quoi faire pour 100 personnes dans la maison principale. 🤣 Mais je vais en rajouter dans l'appartement afin que les futurs hôtes se sentent encore plus à l'aise. 👍 Ce fut un plaisir de vous accueillir et je serais très heureuse de vous revoir chez moi ! Cordialement Markus

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Urlaub und unseren Aufenthalt im Château von Markus in vollen Zügen genossen. Das Château ist ruhig und idyllisch gelegen, abseits des Troubles der Atlantikküste, aber nah genug für zahlreiche schöne Tagesausflüge. Der malerische Poolbereich hat uns uns unserer Tochter viele schöne Stunden und Abkühlung beschert. Man merkt hier, dass Markus Gastgeber mit Herzblut und Leidenschaft ist. Danke für die schöne, unkomplizierte Zeit bei dir und deine beiden Hunde!

We hebben een fantastisch verblijf gehad op het prachtige Château Le Juge. Het is een idyllische plek met een sfeervolle oprijlaan, witte ganzen en twee geweldige honden. Ook voor onze kinderen was het een droomvakantie. Het heerlijke zwembad maakte onze dagen compleet, maar wat deze plek écht bijzonder maakt, is de gastvrijheid van Markus. Hij is een geweldige gastheer die altijd voor je klaarstaat en ons bovendien heeft verwend met allerlei heerlijke lekkernijen. Een vakantie om nooit te vergeten!

Fantastische week bij de perfecte gastheren

Ons verblijf in Château Le Juge was alles wat we hadden verwacht. En meer. Het domein is prachtig gelegen tussen de wijnranken, waar de buurman heerlijke Sauternes-wijn van maakt. Het dorpje Preignac is zeer rustig gelegen en toch zit je dicht bij alle bezienswaardigheden in de Gironde-streek. Het appartement was ruim en het privéterras met jacuzzi geeft een prachtig zicht op de wijnranken en de kerktoren van Preignac. De gastheren waren vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Respect voor hun inzet om van het eeuwenoude kasteel - dat een leuke geschiedenis heeft - een toeristische parel te maken. Een aanrader voor wie de regio Bordeaux wil ontdekken.

We zijn een week bij Markus en Patrick geweest. In een woord, Geweldig! Het heeft ons echt aan niets ontbroken. Het zijn gastheren met de hoofdletter H. Accommodatie was schoon, veilig en de airco op de slaapkamer werkte perfect. Zwembad en jacuzzi waren perfect. Complimenten alom. We zouden er zeker teruggekomen. Een aanrader
