The Villa At The Chateau

Set within the private grounds of a château, this contemporary villa offers a relaxed countryside escape close to the historic market town of Castillon-la-Bataille. This is a fine base for canoeing along the Dordogne, sampling wine in the vineyards of Saint-Émilion or simply savouring the very best of this captivating part of southwestern France.

Inside this single-storey home, open-plan living creates a welcoming space for family or friends. Pretty doors open to both the front and rear, bathing the interior in natural light. The fully equipped kitchen, with its American-style fridge freezer and breakfast bar, flows seamlessly into a comfortable lounge with UK TV channels and Wi-Fi. A dining table sits ready for long lunches, late-night chats and card games, or you may prefer to spend warm summer evenings on the covered terrace.

Comfortably sleeping up to 6 guests, each of the three double bedrooms has been thoughtfully designed with king-size double beds, one enjoying its own ensuite, the other two sharing a gorgeous family bathroom.

Outside, the generous covered terrace offers a shaded spot for al fresco dining, complete with barbecue, while the private swimming pool glistens beside its picturesque terrace. Whether enjoying a swim or lounging with a glass of local wine, this is a place to unwind overlooking the vast and verdant grounds.

Perfectly placed for the wine meccas of Bergerac, Bordeaux and Saint-Émilion, the villa provides easy access to the region’s most celebrated vineyards and markets. The charming town of Castillon-la-Bataille lies a very short drive away, offering a traditional Monday market, cafés, restaurants and all essential amenities. Saint-Émilion’s cobbled streets and world-renowned cellars are a little further by car, or stay closer to home for beautiful walks, canoe trips along the Dordogne and gastronomic dining in local restaurants.

For those seeking a relaxed, well-appointed base in the heart of the Gironde, not far from the Dordogne River, The Villa at The Château blends modern comfort with rural charm.
