Le Prieuré Virsac - Bordeaux - Lovely house

It was a privilege to stay a week at this beautiful property. We were a mixed family and friend group aged from 12 to 60. The house is massive, even filled to maximum capacity of 20 people you may not see each other all day - the pool, gym and stables provided loads of physical entertainment, while the three salons provided piano and guitar playing, contemplation, jigsaw puzzling, reading and Tour De France viewing spaces. The kitchen has ample space for several people to be preparing or cooking meals at the same time and not get in each others way. There are two dishwashers, two sinks, two drainage spaces, two washing machines, a dryer and there is also a clothesline in the yard where you can park several cars and where the rubbish bins and compost area are located. Christophe and his wife (the owners) live in adjacent building and are incredibly helpful and responsive at all times - before and during our stay.There is a lovely space outside for dining under a shady loggia and on the odd night it rained we dined inside at the massive round dining table which is apparently made from the bottom of a wine barrel - there are multiple dining sets and glasses for dressing up the dinner table. Everything has been thought of in terms of guests comfort and requirements, and the house has so much character that makes you feel you are in a home as well as in a place with much history.

Excellent well appointed historic property with a good pool, games area and spacious kitchen. The hosts were very helpful and attentive. The village of Virsac is a mix of very old and modern approx 30 mins from Bordeaux. We were a family party of 17 and we had a most enjoyable week in the glorious sunshine.

There were a group of 20 girls on our trip. I can't begin to explain how wonderful it is. The accommodation is massive, we had so much space you never felt on top of each other. The beds were incredibly comfortable, nice and firm, just right. Christophe greeter us and gave us a great tour. He kindly reordered us our fresh bread and pastries before we arrived which we could then pick up each morning. A 4 min walk. He made us feel so welcome there and if the opportunity presented itself again, I would certainly come back

We had a lovely week at this nice house. The garden was big enough for both games and outdoor eating. The pool with surroundings was really good. The house was big enough for at least 20 persons with enough bathrooms. The Kitchen was well equipped with two sinks, dishwashers and washingmashines. The collage was very quiet, had a good tenniscourt and a Nice boulangerie. Big bonus was the gym-hall, fun for all of us. Thank’s for a lovely vacation.
