Location
About the surrounding area of Villa ArtigueVilla Artigue is located in the heart of the wine-growing region of Saint-Émilion in Gironde. Close to many of the region’s main tourist attractions, this charming villa offers a brilliant base for exploring he cultural and historical heritage of the area. With delicious gastronomy, world-class vineyards, ocean beaches and towns steeped in history, this area offers more than you could imagine, with endless things to see and do during your stay.
Just a short drive from the villa itself, is a wine estate called Domaine de la Grave, owned by the same family as Villa Artigue since 1876. You can explore the wine and Cooperage Museum, eat some cheese and fresh bread in the picnic area, and partake in fun tasting activities and oenological discoveries.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Saint-Émilion is just a ten-minute drive from the villa and is a must visit during your stay. This quaint, mediaeval village hosts nearly a million visitors a year, with exceptional architecture, gastronomy and underground galleries to explore.
One of the main drawers of this vibrant area has always been the wine. The renowned Médoc wine route is well worth exploring, starting in the vineyards of Bordeaux and travelling as far as Pointe de Grave. The wealth of knowledge and quality of grapes is remarkable and leaves every visitor feeling like a wine connoisseur.
For something special, there is a nearby aerodrome which organise aerial tours over the wineries, coastline, and historic towns. From a bird’s eye view you can spot renowned châteaux, and picturesque scenery, giving the villa a sense of place in this beautiful landscape.
Saint-Émilion is not the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in the area, with the city of Bordeaux nearby as well. Overflowing with historic sites, monuments, and must-see spots, you can easily spend a day or two exploring the rich history of the city. La Cité du Vin and the vibrant restaurant scene are well worth visiting, making memories in this remarkable place.
A day at the beach never goes amiss, and Arcachon Bay is only an hour and a half from the villa. Woodland dunes and the blue azure of the sea, make this beautiful bay a lovely spot for some sunbathing and fun in the sand.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThis fantastic villa has been designed to happily accommodate families with children. There is a bedroom perfect for kids to share, as well as spacious family rooms where you can all come together and spend time. At the front of the villa there is a fabulous private swimming pool that children will adore, whilst to the back of the villa there is a boules court that adds a bit of fun and competitiveness into the family dynamic! The entire villa is surrounded by a fence with an electric entrance gate and alarm, so you can be assured of yours and your family’s security through the duration of your stay.
Of course, a cot can be provided for you’re the youngest guests in your group. The South of France has always been a family favourite! With beautiful countryside, stunning beaches and a rich cultural history to explore, there are endless sites to see and places to go as a family.
Whilst wine tasting trips don’t usually lend themselves to families with kids, you can visit Cormeil-Figeac which is a fifteen-minute drive away. Cormeil-Figeac have arranged a tour where adults can sample wines and the children are given grape juice to try at the same time. Kids are even given the chance to bottle some juice which is great fun!
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Saint-Émilion is a delightful place to visit with kids of all ages. There is a local tourist office that will help you plan out activities as a family and they even have puzzles and trails that you can all complete together as you explore the local area. You can get a key to the central tower, climbing to the top to get a view over the town. We recommend taking a tour around Eglise Monolithe de Saint-Emilion, learning about the underground history of Saint-Émilion and enjoying the beautiful architecture as a family.
A great way to explore the south of France is by bike, and it is a brilliant way to keep the whole family entertained. You can explore the countryside, visit markets and admire architecture, pausing for a picnic with a view and an ice cream in a picturesque village!

We had an excellent stay at this property!
We had an excellent stay at this property! The house was super nice and absolutely perfect for our needs. It was well-equipped with fantastic amenities, including a well equipped kitchen, heated pool and a pool table that provided entertainment.
One of the standout features of this property is its excellent location for exploring the nearby wineries. We had a wonderful time visiting the vineyards in the area.
Moreover, the hosts both Céline and Jerome have been very helpful and maintained excellent communication throughout our stay.
We highly recommend Villa Artigue to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-appointed home in a prime location. -
Feels right like home
The house is wonderful and feels right like home. There are a lot of activity inside like pool, table football and ping-pong. The garden is very spacious and the outside patio is perfect for a sunny lunch. I recommend this place to anyone that wish to enjoy a peaceful moment off the grid while enjoying great comfort. Jerome was also very helpful throughout the stay.

Exceptional house
Exceptional house with great garden and pool, lots of entertainment. It’s clean, it looks like a dream house with a nice touch for details. It’s like on the pictures. The host has been very nice, flexible and responsive. I think it’s the perfect place for a few days (or maybe a week!) holidays with friends or family. You’ll have some charming villages around and a good opportunity to get to know how the local world-famous wine is done. We booked with friends for the week-end, we would have stayed the entire week. Just go for it!

We had an amazing time in the house
We had an amazing time in the house. The location is peaceful but with excellent vineyards, restaurants and Saint Emilion on the doorstep it made the week go by too fast. The house is beautiful and well equipped with a good size pool and a well stuffed games room. The host was very nice to us and provided information and recommendations whenever we asked. Thank you for a memorable week!
