The house

  • Quiet, rural area

The Gite is the converted walnut drying barn and dates back at least 150 years.
A large, impressive space for social living, ideal for families; enclosed garden with its pool (shared) offers a safe space for children to play.
There are two other gites on site but all have private terraces offering views across the valley with fields of sunflowers and vines. The owners live on site, in a separate residence, and are always on hand to help.
Licensed - able to offer wine tastings
3* classified 2021
The space
The gite is approximately 132m2 and a large open plan downstairs with its full height ceiling makes for an great space for families. There is a mezzanine area great for slightly older children with a small snooker table.
Guest access
There are three gites on site - each have their own private terraces. Guests are free to enjoy all the grounds and pool - even feed the chickens.
Other things to note
Wine (and Cognac) is a massive aspect of the local area. For stays of 7 days or more we can offer a complementary tasting of a few local wines on request to give you an overview of what qualities make the Bordeaux area so special. We also have links with several vineyards in the area that we can set up bespoke visits and tastings with.

We are also licensed and able to offer a selection of our favorite wines by the glass and by the bottle for you to enjoy in the sun.

Part of the attraction with our gite is its beautiful countryside setting, however, in this rural location, this means that a car is a necessity to get around.

Activities

Introduction to Wine Tasting (10 euros per person - free for stays of 7 nights or more)
Aimed at beginners to the world of wine, you are within a stones throw of some of the best wine in the world, countless chateau offer free degustation (tastings) BUT what are you actually tasting for. It's all about understanding why you like a wine, as well as why you might not like one.
Join us as we show you 3 of our favourite wines from the area and let us take you on a relaxed, informal and fun journey; stopping off along the way to look at Balance, Length, Intensity and Complexity.

Journey through Bordeaux (25 euros per person)
Obviously not all wines are equal, here in a tasting of 5 wines we will show you some of the higher quality wines that give Bordeaux its world wide status.
The famous Bordeaux blended whites that combine Sauvignon Blanc and Semilon to create a smooth textured richness. To the famous reds where you can sample left-bank Cabernet Sauvignon led wines, against right-bank Merlot dominated wines, highlighting the vintner's art of blending to produce the elegant age worthy wines Bordeaux is so known for.
And finishing with a sweet Sauternes wine to remind everyone that while perhaps not so in vogue these are classy wines that shouldn't be over looked.

Afternoon Guide to French Wines (50 euros per person, min 4 people)
Aimed at all experience levels, for an afternoon, we can take a group of you on a fun whistle stop tour of France - showing the key wine regions and some of their iconic wines. From Alsace to the Rhone valley, taking in whites, reds, rose and bubbles...
With 10 wines tasted from seven of the main wine producing regions we can explore the differences in style, grapes used, climate and wine making processes that allow French wines to express their distinctive terroir.
