We had an amazing stay here. The place was magical, like living in a castle. Nathalie was the warmest, most helpful host one could imagine!!! We loved walking the country roads, shopping at the local farmer’s markets and enjoying many meals with fresh ingredients. And Nathalie knows where the wonderful restaurants are!! The saddest part of the whole month we were there was the leaving!!!

Thanks David for your warm and kind words. It was such a real pleasure to host all of you, to give you my best recommendations and make you discover our amazing area. You were the perfect guests ! Can’t wait to welcome you back again !
Great and calm house in middle of grape ward. Thank you for allowing us to taste fresh grapes. It was really great experience for 7 family members. The road to SanitMillion is another fancy experience to enjoy. Small and a little foggy relaxaed road in early morning is a art by itself.

Sang and his family are great guests and very enthusiastic ! They took great care of our property and were respectful of it. I recommend 100% !
We stayed at Nathalie’s property for 3 weeks, with family and friends and it was nothing short of amazing. The home is even better in real-life with a stunning garden and wonderful views of the vineyards surrounding the property. The property is a short drive from the local village which has a large supermarket and a couple of boulangeries, which is very convenient. The location is also ideal - 30 mins away from Bordeaux and St Emilion but you can drive 15 mins in any direction to explore several of the other lesser known wine regions Bordeaux has to offer, all of which are fantastic. There are even a few vineyards in walking distance from the house (Chateau Biac and Chateau Langoiran). Nathalie was also a wonderful host, providing many excellent recommendations and Evelyne, the caretaker, was so friendly and helpful too. Thank you for a wonderful holiday!

Thanks Sharlene for your kind words ! Also thank you for taking such a great care to our property.
A group of 9 friends celebrating 40th birthdays hired the property for 4 nights.
What an amazing time we all had.
The Chateaux was outstandingly beautiful and very homely and well equipped.
It was beautiful spending time in such a grand place. The rooms were spacious and the beds comfortable. The swimming pool was a perfect addition to cool down in. We had a chef come in one evening which was a great experience and all arranged with via the host. The host was amazing and always on hand for any queries prior to and during the trip.
Highly recommend staying here.
Wir hatten hervorragende sieben Tage auf dem wunderbaren, sehr großzügigen Anwesen. Zwei Familien mit je 5 Personen haben wunderbar viel Platz und Gelegenheit für gemeinsame und bei Bedarf auch einsame Momente. Im Haus ist es großartig und stilsicher mit dem entsprechenden Charme der Jahrhunderte. Das Grundstück ebenso mit großem Pool und Wiese und allem, was man sich wünscht. Die Lage traumhaft in den Weinbergen und mit schnellem Anschluss an Bordeaux Stadt und die Umgebung.
Die charmante Patina der Gartenmöbel mochten wir, indes hätten wir für die Großfamilie noch etwas mehr Gestühl brauchen können. Ein sicher leicht zu erfüllender Wunsch.
Noch hervorzuheben ist das äußerst sympathische und hilfsbereite Gastgeber-Ehepaar.

About the host
Hosted by Nathalie
It’s been almost 15 years that I greet travelers from all around the world. I want them to feel like home. This is what I expect when I travel myself, and I love to travel ! I will do my best to make your stay unforgettable !
Why they chose this property
Our property is located in the countryside and is surrounded by vineyards. It is a quiet environnement with a few neighbors and I cherish the good relationship with them, that’s the reason why I expect quiet stays from my visitors. The views from most of the bedrooms are splendid !
What makes this property unique
Our house is a historical monument which was built in 1640. It was renovated throughout the centuries. It is a Maison Forte rather than a Castel although it looks like a little Castel because of its towers. There is a total of 171 Maisons Fortes in France while there are 45000 castles ! Our place is unique !
