Château with infinity pool on the Dordogne river

We loved our stay at Clos Castaing! We were in the area for my daughter's wedding in nearby Saint-Vincent-de-Pertignas and this chateau was perfect for my family during the week leading up to the wedding. We were 8 adults with more than enough space to relax and enjoy all the property had to offer, while also preparing for the wedding. The infinity pool was very appreciated during the heatwave all week. We used the kayaks provided on the lovely Dordogne, with access right from the yard. Colette, the caretaker, was quick to reply to our questions and requests. She was very friendly and helpful. The house was well stocked with essentials. It was thoughtfully and beautifully renovated and it was fun to look through the book they provided that documented the renovation project. The river view from the bedroom windows is just spectacular! Such a joy to wake up to that each morning. The only downside for us was the lack of screens on the windows. Being on the river there were a lot of mosquitos which made it impossible to keep the windows open at night to take advantage of the river breezes. (When asked, Colette did immediately provide an extra fan for us to use.) I highly recommend Francois' peaceful and beautiful Domaine du Clos Castaing and hope to return again!

Very glamorous old world style, renovated very well. The modern upgrades to bathrooms and kitchen are good. The infinity pool and views are the best. Very quiet property with lovely expansive gardens. The only downside was lounge and outside furniture was not very comfortable. Otherwise we found it and the location very good. Would be very nice with a group.

Wow! What a fabulous place! My husband, myself and 3 friends spent 12 days in this gorgeous chateau and had an absolutely wonderful time. This very old chateau has been lovingly renovated to mix modern amenities, (electrical, plumbing, kitchen, swimming pool..etc), with old world charm. Clos Castaing is really something special. The main floor has a modern kitchen, (with some authentic decor), large parlor, dining room, billiard room, laundry room and toilet. The next floor has 3 large double bedrooms with either king or queen beds. They all have beautiful views of the river and their own showers and sinks. There is also a "bunk room" , with 4 single beds but no shower or sink. There are 2 separate toilets on that floor. The top floor has a huge stunning king bedroom with gorgeous river views and a spa tub and sink, (note - there is no toilet on that floor).There is also plenty of outside seating, a bbq and an infinity pool to die for! The pool is heated and very clean. The restaurant in town, (Le p'tit Flaujaguais) is a 10 min walk, open 3 nights a week and is very good. Say hi to Audrey for us! The restaurant in Pessac, (Le Pessaquai), is also excellent and very friendly. For a great local wine tour try Chateau For-Vidal, ask for Claire. Collette, ( the property manager Clos Castaing), is very helpful with anything you need or with recommendations. It is hard not to have a great holiday at Clos Castaing. We can't wait to return! Enjoy!

From my first inquiring about this property almost a year ago to staying and then departing - Everything has been east, accurate and unique. I have Stayz home in Australia and honestly, Francois (host) and Colette and Karl (housekeeper) were all wonderful. Stay here - don’t hesitate.
