Great place to stay with friends or family

This Chateau has the wow factor as you arrive and is a superb place to share with friends or family. The style is wonderfully French with all the mod cons of a good heating and plumbing system! And the grounds are so expansive that there is plenty of room for children to run about. Unfortunately the weather was not particularly kind to us so the tennis court was not used as much as we would have liked. I can thoroughly recommend using Oliver's Travels who provide an excellent service.

Everything was just perfect!

We’ve had various family/friends holidays in villas etc in Europe but in comparison everything at Chateau Duras was just perfect & exceeded our expectations. The chateau is wonderful & the setting is breath taking with the beautiful sunsets. Importantly, we felt very welcome & comfortable there. The pool & tennis courts were excellent & the table tennis was competitive! Jayne was very efficient in sorting a cot out for our granddaughter.
Two of our sons are great wine enthusiasts & they had a great time at St Emilion as well as exploring local vineyards & meeting with owners. Our middle son got engaged during our holiday on a trip to Bordeaux. Everybody had a wonderfully relaxing & comfortable stay.
We have spent a lot of time in France & Italy over the last 25 years both in summer & winter but latterly have visited Italy much more. However, I think it’s safe to say that I’ve fallen in love with France again & in particular, Perigord - again ! I very much hope to be able to stay at the beautiful Chateau Duras again. Thanks for all your help & advice prior to our stay.

Amazing Chateau!!
Truly delivers everything the website promises.
The nice side of the chateau is that it has all the amenities to accommodate the number of guests advertised - both in sleeping, entertaining and relaxing space.
Jane, who looks after the chateau, is great - accommodating with every request and full of knowledge of the local area.
Cannot recommend the chateau more!

We were a group of grandparents to grandchildren and all absolutely loved the chateau. It's the perfect place for a family reunion. Lovely enclosed grounds meant it was safe for the toddlers to roam and various beautiful terrace areas made for the perfect post bedtime glass of rose!

We had a fantastic week. The Chateau is quite beautiful and I am unashamed to say that we did as little as we could possibly do in a week. We were blessed by the hot weather and our tennis and swimming has definitely improved!
Thank you again and hope to return some time soon.

Thank you Erica. We found Chateau Duras delightful and elegant and the highlight of the three Chateaux we rented. We hope to be staying again next time we return to France.
Thank you Erica.

Just a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed our holiday. The chateau was wonderful - so well appointed and very comfortable it made the whole trip extremely relaxing. We thoroughly enjoyed playing tennis, swimming and of course playing boules!
Also enjoyed exploring the area, wine tasting and some wonderful food!!
Many thanks for creating a delightful place to stay.

We had a fabulous holiday in your wonderful home-what a place to celebrate Rosie's 60th.!! Christiane cooked us a great meal and Carl prepared an excellent BBQ.
Our 4-year-old granddaughter actually managed to swim her first strokes in your beautiful pool. I would really like to go again next year if possible.
You must be very proud of what you have created at Chateau Duras and thank you again for letting us share it.
Kind Regards

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the chateau. I wish it could have been longer; I have to say of all my French holidays this has been my favourite visit to France.
