Chartreuse between Saint Emilion and Bordeaux

This property is one of the loveliest properties we’ve ever stayed in. The hosts, Patrick and Véronique, were wonderful, greeted us in person, and showed us through the house explaining the layout and function of the property’s features.The home is located between Bordeaux an Saint-Emilion and both are easily accessible if you have a car. The location is extremely quiet and we were amazed at the number of stars we could see in the sky at night.The bedrooms rooms are beautifully appointed and comfortable. The kitchen is well-equipped. We used the washing machine. There isn’t a dryer, but there was a substantial drying rack available.If we were ever in the area again, I would definitely want to stay there again.

Beautiful old house with a phenomenal garden and major amenities within 10 min driving that can comfortably sleep 8.5 people (one bunk bed and a crib). Hosts are terrific. Three full bathrooms. Fully equipped kitchen.Two minor issues: Bathtub drains slowly and shower is for those who love high temperatures.

We loved meeting Patrick and Veronique. The most delightful hosts. The peaceful garden setting and surrounding vineyards were perfect for then exploding around St Emillion and the beautiful French countryside. All amenities are provided together with a genuine experience of an old chateaux with its quirks and timeless charm. Thank you to our hosts.

Thank you - Susan Peillet Yule & Richard YuleThis property is perfectly positioned for visiting the Bordeaux wine region; easy to get to - 45 minutes from Bordeaux airport. St. Emilion and Libourne are less than a 15 minute drive; easy enough to cross over the Gironde estuary to reach the 'left bank' and visit the Medoc (Haut-Medoc, St-Estèphe, Pauillac, St.-Julien and Margaux ) and Graves regions. From the day you open the front door, you will believe you are in your own personal French Chateau. Accomodations were superb (fully equipped kitchen; bathrooms; washer etc); decorated impeccably and immaculate. The private courtyard made sipping wines from the vineyards an extraordinary experience. Veronique and Patrick Lecoanet, are gracious and engaging hosts and made us feel we were staying in our own French home and part of their extended family. Thank you and we will be back - there are only 5,985 more Chateaus to visit :)Cette propriété est parfaitement positionnée pour visiter la région viticole de Bordeaux; facile d’arriver à-45 minutes de l’aéroport de Bordeaux. St. Emilion et Libourne sont à moins de 15 minutes en voiture; assez facile pour traverser l’estuaire de la Gironde pour rejoindre la «rive gauche» et visiter les régions du Médoc (Haut-Médoc, St-Estèphe, Pauillac, St.-Julien et Margaux) et des graves. Depuis le jour où vous ouvrez la porte d’entrée, vous croirez que vous êtes dans votre propre château Français personnel. Les logements étaient superbes (cuisine entièrement équipée; salles de bains; laveuse, etc.); décoré impeccablement et immaculé. La cour privée a fait siroter des vins du vignoble une expérience extraordinaire. Véronique et Patrick LECOANET, sont des hôtes aimables et attachants et nous ont fait sentir que nous étions dans notre propre Français maison et une partie de leur famille élargie. Merci et nous serons de retour-il n’y a que 5 985 plus de chateaus à visiter:)
