Villa Lotus - Your peaceful getaway in the heart of the Bordeaux vineyards

Owner is absolutely lovely and provided an exceptional experience!

We arrived on the train during a heatwave, and it was 40C in Libourne. Brigitte welcomed us in person and immediately poured us all cold drinks to cool down, before showing us the house. We were grateful for the pool and the air conditioning during this very hot spell. Once the weather cooled down, there was plenty to explore in the local area, no car required. We walked to Libourne (15 mins to centre), and went further afield using the train (15 mins walk) or the local buses (free to use!). The house is well-stocked with supplies, including toiletries. A lovely, unique, interesting place to stay, full of character. Thank you Brigitte for a lovely stay.

The place is beautiful. We used all the space, even though there were only two of us. We are cooks, so we really enjoyed having the kitchens, even though we couldn’t figure out the logistics of two kitchens in one space! Our stay coincided with a heat wave, so we definitely used the pool each day when we came back from our vineyard treks. With its great location, we could walk to any meeting point, or to the train station for longer trips. We could also walk around town, enjoy the local cafés and the great market days, as well as enjoy the lovely views along the river. Our hostess, Brigitte, was very attentive and extremely helpful in getting us oriented to town. She even led us to the grocery store the first day. And there was no trouble finding the place. Brigitte had a blue balloon tied to the door, opened it when we knocked and greeted us as long lost friends. Wonderful experience in Libourne.

Had a wonderful stay at Lotus. A quirky place but comfortable and clean. Ideal to the centre and train station. Upstairs has aircon but not downstairs. Pool area beautiful, but unfortunately too cold to swim .
