Having lived a former life as a wine and cognac press, this beautifully converted home has retained all of its charm, along with exposed beams and brickwork. Spend your days in the 17th-century conversion – when you’re not off exploring historical sites or teeing off at any of the three surrounding golf courses – by doing as much or as little as you’d like.

Read sprawled out on the sofa, only moving to top up your coffee, or take your reading outdoors, keeping your nose in a novel as you relax poolside. With this region being amongst the sunniest in France, you can expect beautiful weather all year round – perfect for a swim and some sunbathing. 

Pack snacks and wine and walk around the 12 acres of parkland in search of the perfect spot for a picnic. Enjoy the sunshine and fresh air, exploring beaches and towns nearby. Just because this home isn’t a wine press anymore doesn’t mean there aren’t any in the surrounding area, so venture out to visit some of the wineries, coming back with a few of your favourite vintages.

It may be dated, but this converted barn in the French countryside has rustic charm in spades. The cosy lounge is great for families – with a pool table and a sofa bed for two extra guests, it acts as a games room by day and an additional bedroom come evening. There isn’t wi-fi here, so be prepared to switch off. But, as Charente-Maritime is known for sunshine, you'll have plenty of opportunities to splash in the private heated pool and dine alfresco in the sprawling garden. For adventures further afield, Saintes has cafes and weekly markets (10 kilometres away) or drive thirty minutes to visit sandy beaches and Cognac distilleries.

Sun Umbrellas

Doze in the sunshine and let the scent of peonies, magnolias and roses drift over you on a gentle breeze. This idyllic Dordogne home is a haven, set in a valley of rolling countryside. When you’re not stretched out on a sun lounger, you’ll be swimming laps in the solar-heated salt-water pool, and listening to the fountain trickle softly in the background. Tuck into alfresco feasts on the terrace – there’s a barbecue and pizza oven to make cooking as easy as can be. When the sun has set, settle around the fire pit with a bottle of local wine, and sit out late spotting constellations in the clear sky above. 

The house itself is wonderful. The contemporary living space is the heart of the home, with high ceilings and plenty of light. There’s enough room for everyone to gather together here, though there are also peaceful corners for those quieter moments – we love the reading nook. 

In addition to its wonderful charm and beauty, this home is in an excellent location. Hop on bikes to cycle into the village for a coffee and a bite to eat in a cafe-bar, or to shop locally. The Friday morning market in nearby Ribérac is one of the best in the area – head there to pick up local produce for dinner. Aubeterre-sur-Donne, one of France’s prettiest villages, is just a short drive away. There’s so much to see and do here, you’ll want to return time and again.

And for those in search of the refreshing spirit of the Atlantic sea, it’s just a five-minute drive to Carcans beach or a little further on to Lacanau. 

Wherever the day takes you, this home provides a refreshingly simple space to relax and unwind. Enjoy the beautiful views whilst sipping drinks on the terrace, savour the comfort of cooking with fresh local produce in the fully equipped kitchen and come together for heart-warming evenings around the table – accompanied by a glass (or two) of local wine.

While the food and drink scene in Bordeaux is what makes the city so special, this spot gives you the option of cooking up your own delicious meals in the large kitchen and dining area. And then, after a long day of soaking up the city sights, why not soak in the bathtub with a glass of local wine in hand? Utter bliss. 

From this central home, you'll be within convenient walking distance of the city centre's shops, bars and restaurants. Meanwhile, the banks of the River Garonne, Place St Colombe, Rue Sainte Catherine and Place du Palais are all just a few steps away.

With views overlooking a golf course, easy access to Lacanau Lake and the beach at Lacanau-Ocean – both just four kilometres away, albeit in opposite directions – there really is something for everyone here. But, if you’re not strolling the fairways or splashing in the sea, it’s easy to relax back at home. With plenty of space to spread out and pine trees framing the villa, privacy is guaranteed. Add to that the private pool, sun-kissed terraces and opportunities for alfresco family meals, and this modern home will surely tick a lot of your holiday boxes. 

Summertime Soul

Soak up the rustic charm of this beautiful home, filled with character and all the luxuries you might want from a stay in France. Go for a float in the private pool or get some remote work done at the dedicated desk. Who says you can't be productive on holiday? The garden is perfect for sitting out under the trees with a drink, and the terrace is perfect for alfresco dining. Get a good night's sleep in the round bed upstairs, and relax in one of many shaded and sun-kissed spots outside.

Enjoy picnics by the banks of the Dordogne and strolls through the markets of Périgord. If you're looking for somewhere to eat, there are plenty of options a short drive away, whatever you're craving. Enjoy hours of exploration whether you're a hiker, a cyclist, or even a sailor. In the summer months, rent a kayak or canoe and traverse the Dordogne river. In the evening, the plush sofas of the two living areas make for cosy places to gather and discuss a busy day.

Bliss by the Pool

Pets Allowed

Pets

Few things sounds more romantic than a cottage situated in the middle of wine country, where the endless vineyards sprawl and birds chirp. Perfect for a long-awaited holiday away from the kids or a getaway for a budding romance, the home is small but its surroundings are vast and baby-blue French shutters are ever-so charming. Escape right out to the private gardens from the pastel bedroom. After days lounging by the pool or drifting in the nearby river, take the bikes to one of two nearby towns to explore gothic churches and to pick up local delicacies like fresh truffles and a bottle (or two) of wine for enjoyment on the stone terrace. Intimacy is the emphasis here, and we can guarantee this home as a perfect start to a French-inspired love story. 

Gardenia

Lift Access

Situated in the Golden Triangle, Bordeaux’s most prestigious district, this apartment is a refined and peaceful retreat in the heart of the city. Inside, it’s all parquet floors, full-length windows and timeless neutral shades. Begin your mornings in the light-filled dining area with buttery croissants picked up from the nearby boulangerie before nursing a café au lait on the sumptuous leather sofa. 

Spend afternoons ticking off the city’s most iconic locations – admire the masonry of the Cathédrale St-André, a Unesco World Heritage Site, just footsteps from your building. Visit the unique Miroir d'Eau and the ground-breaking La Cité du Vin, then stop for a bite to eat in a belle époque brasserie. 

Head home in the evening to put together a cheese board in your fully-equipped kitchen and reflect on the day’s events over a bottle of the region’s wine in the sophisticated living area. When it’s time to call it a night, beds dressed in crisp white linens ensure a deep and restful slumber. 

Tastes Like Gold

Rooftop Terrace

It's not every day you find a place with two outdoor spaces in the heart of a city. This gem of a home is putting an end to the idea that being in the city centre automatically means forfeiting space. Here, location, style, comfort, and luxury have beautifully been combined to bring you a showstopper. 

There's a lot to love here, from the contemporary interior to the fantastic location, but the outdoor space takes the cake. There's something wonderful about waking up in the morning and stepping straight outside to feel the sun on your face, and here, you get that small but special treat from each bedroom. Invigorating fresh coffees in the sun are the perfect way to start the day. Whether you're on the rooftop terrace or the patio, you'll feel a far cry from the hustle and bustle of Bordeaux city centre, despite being close to all the action.

Exploring Bordeaux comes easy here. You're just a five-minute walk from the tram, which takes you all across the city. Or, you can take to the wine metropolis on foot – you're just 1.5km away from the historic centre. There, you can take a walk along the famous promenade which is lined by restaurants and bars, discover the city's museums, and spot some notable sights, like the 11th-century Bordeaux Cathedral. 

However you spend your day, you'll love coming home to your bright, welcoming home. Take the spiral stairs up to the rooftop terrace, armed with a bottle of local wine, to watch the sky envelop into hues of reds and oranges at dusk. When dinner rolls around, your kitchen is perfectly equipped for whipping up meals at home. But if you don't feel like cooking, there are several brilliant restaurants nearby, ready to welcome you. 

City Tropicale

Combining French Regency style with sleek modern accents, this elegant apartment in the heart of the Golden Triangle is an excellent launch-pad for discovering the very best of Bordeaux. Wake up with an espresso and a buttery croissant in the opulent living space – we loved the double height ceilings, parquet flooring and triptych of French doors. Recline on the plush sofa with a crossword puzzle until you’re ready to take the city by storm. 

Spend sunny afternoons strolling around the nearby Jardin Public before nipping into the Museum of Decorative Arts and Design. Visit the iconic Place de la Bourse, treat yourself to a shopping spree on the Rue Sainte-Catherine and admire the 15th-century Porte Cailhau. In the early evening, after a bite to eat in a revered brasserie, head home with a bottle of the region’s famous wine and enjoy a glass or two on your private balcony as the sky turns violet.

With the peaceful sound of the birds singing in the garden and the calming tone of the interior, this home welcomes you to enjoy a serene stay on the island of Oléron. 

Located in Saint-Pierre-d’Oléron, with the beach just a short drive away, there’s everything you could need to experience the natural abundance of the Charente-Maritime region. Inspired by the beauty of the surrounding coastline, the owners have styled this home to feel like the perfect island escape. And with the welcome addition of a private heated swimming pool, you’ll find yourself transported to a wonderful state of relaxation. 

Inside or outside, this is a wonderful place to gather with family and friends. Enjoy a quiet morning coffee on the terrace, take a refreshing dip and gather for sunset drinks and meals (prepared with fresh local produce from the nearby market). However you choose to spend your time here, you’ll find yourself serenaded by the sweet charm of French living. 

Days can be spent hiking, sightseeing, horse riding or setting sail with a boat trip around the island. The renowned Chassiron lighthouse is just a short drive away, and you’ll find restaurants, bars and shops within easy reach – your lovely host can also provide excellent recommendations on what to do during your stay.

Nice to haves

Sit back, relax and drink in Bordeaux's unforgettable charm at this cosy hideaway in the heart of the historic city centre. Just a short walk from Rue Sainte Catherine, Place de la Bourse and Grosse Cloche, you'll be incredibly located for whatever tickles your fancy, be it sightseeing, shopping or sampling the region's most famous wines. 

A stroll along the Garonne River will get your day off to a great start, as will a delicious pastry from a local boulangerie. Following an alfresco lunch, discover the city's renowned museums in the afternoons while evenings call for dinner, drinks and a grand night at the Opéra National, also within walking distance.

If you prefer a laid-back approach to your travels, this third-floor apartment is just the ticket. Nestled in a stone building dating back to the 19th century, there's plenty of character to fall in love with here – we're talking exposed stone walls, wooden beams and typical Parisian-style windows with wrought-iron balconettes. 

Come home after a long day, kick off your shoes and unwind in style. Prepare your own take on classic French dishes in the kitchen – best served, of course, with a glass of Bourdeaux's dry red at the stylish island. A soak in the bathtub is the perfect way to end the day, or simply snuggle up with a book on the sofa before bed, instead.

Tucked away in the Cote de Bourg area just north of Bordeaux, this fairytale 19th-century chartreuse overlooks beautiful vineyards and the rolling landscape beyond. The seclusion makes this a tranquil getaway – especially when swimming in the private pool or enjoying the ample seating outside – but with this being an active vineyard, it's also a unique way to experience the French countryside. The interior, all rustic rafters and palatial furnishings, might not be everyone's cup of tea, but there's plenty of space and charm here. It is worth noting that there are only three bathrooms to share between fourteen guests. The country house is bold and full of character, and the pool table is a nice touch too.

This newly renovated apartment in central Bordeaux, home to largest urban World Heritage Site, is perfect for couples and small families. Cute and quirky, this fabulous French home features a lovely, light filled open plan kitchen cum dining cum living room characterised by pops of red, contrasting coloured wall paper.  You’ll love waking up in your idiosyncratically decorated room for two, and delighting in a rain shower before breakfast in the white tiled kitchen. Read, relax or watch the world go by from the sofa next to the window while making a plan for the day. This home’s superb location in the semi-pedestrian Saint-Pierre district, the city’s historic heart, means you’ll be wandering the cobbled streets and stumbling across picturesque squares in no time. 

A stone’s throw from the best Bordeaux has to offer by way of museums and cultural heritage sites as well as restaurants and bars, why not plot a course through the Place du Parlement, the Place du Palais or the Place de la Bourse, before visiting CAPC, the musée d'art contemporain, Saint-André Cathedral, and the Grand Théâtre de Bordeaux? You won’t want to miss out on sampling both Bordelais premiers crus and cuisine and vibrant Saint-Pierre hosts a sassy mix of traditional French kitchens, experimental neobistros, creative fusion restaurants, food trucks and barista-run coffee shops, a gastronomic scene that is sure to impress even the most discerning of bon vivants.

Fenced Property

La Belle Vie has been around for well over a hundred years. No fakes, no approximations, just old-style charm and the kind of luxury only the nineteenth-century French nobles could conjure up. Mostly furnished with antiques in various states of refurbishment, this chateau is a walk through the history of comfort — perfect for a large family gathering with older children, or a luxurious base to explore the  the world-famous vineyards of the Aquitaine region. Some off you will start your days with a brisk walk around the estate, and some with a proper morning swim in the private pool. There are plenty of spots to socialise both indoors and outdoors, so reconnecting will be easy even when you're not gathering for one of your fancy meals. And if you're travelling with discerning guests, the host is more than happy to organise a variety of extra services that will turn your stay into a proper five-stay experience.

Welcome Hamper

Umbrellas

Set overlooking the golf course of La Palmyre, this whimsical villa in Les Mathes is bathed in an abundance of natural light and welcomes guests to retreat to its garden of sand and pines. 

While luxury designs and amenities grace the villa from the inside out, you'll feel as though you're staying in the wilderness even when spending time inside the home here. Despite double exposure from east to west, the home isn't at all overlooked, meaning you'll benefit from utmost privacy. Open up the whopping bi-fold doors to bring the outside in – the transitioning indoor-outdoor living spaces make for a sociable stay. Meanwhile, seven stylish bedroom suites, each with its own en-suite bathroom grant everyone in the group their own personal space – important for precious moments of solitude. 

In the garden a wealth of fauna and flora surrounds, creating an idyllic hideaway and escape from reality. Relaxing, meditating, doing yoga or simply reading your book in peace will provide you with an utterly blissful experience in this serene setting. Oh, and you'll have your own heated swimming pool to make a splash in here too. 

With the nearest sandy beach, only a 300 metre walk away – you'll have the choice of staying here in your own private haven or exploring France's western coastline. Why not take adventurous trips out to discover the picturesque locale? Ile de Oleron is reachable in just a fifty-minute drive up north and boasts stunning beaches and seafood opportunities galore. 


Whimsical Wilderness 

Wine Cooler

Wine Cellar

Nestled inside its very own vineyard, this luxurious château will be a favourite for wine-lovers and francophiles alike. The regal honey-coloured exterior, with its purple adornment of wisteria, dazzles immediately as you enter the grounds. Inside, the home has been lovingly restored and the rooms are light and spacious. Modern touches and elegant furnishings blend with classical remnants. We especially love the claw foot bath, which will make for a dramatic soak. However, the standout feature of this home is its idyllic surroundings. Watch from your window the workings of the organic, bio-dynamic vineyard and sample the well-known Saint-Émilion Grand Cru. This Chateau provides a perfect base to explore this captivating region. Saint-Émilion is situated just three kilometres away with its golden-cobbled streets providing a delightful maze to get lost in. If you’re craving the hustle and bustle of a more well-renowned city, Bordeaux can be reached via the coast in a little over an hour. 

Grand Cru Wine

This home is situated in the heart of the Chartrons district, just two minutes from Rue Notre Dame and its many antique shops. On the Garonne banks, Bordeaux's Chartrons district is a sought-after area. You’ll find here the luxury residences of former wine and antique merchants. The neighbourhood is well connected too, and it couldn’t be simpler to get around the city. Tram line B is 50 metres away, while tram line C (200 metres) has services to Bordeaux Station, taking around fifteen minutes.

Back at this abode, relax on the terrace with a glass of local wine or unwind on the sofa in the first-floor open-plan living space. We love the mix of industrial vibe (think pallet box coffee tables and polished concrete ceilings), which contrasts with the vintage prints. Rustle up some le magret de canard grille (grilled duck) in the modern kitchen, and enjoy it with some cèpes en persillade (porcini mushrooms in parsley) at your dining table. This home allows friends, family or work colleagues to live like a local. 

Red, Red Bordeaux Wine

Wheelchair Access

Journey through the vineyards of Bordeaux before finding yourself at this stone villa on the bank of the Dordogne. The highlight of this stay for us is not only the view of the romantic river, but the direct access to it via a private dock or one of the included kayaks. If you do happen to tire of a lazy day by the river (or pool if you’d rather), explore the private gardens, scenic as a Monet painting, and pick at seasonal treats for your family or friends to snack on. Speaking of food, you can take the bikes out to the nearby boulangerie for croissants and tarts. We should also mention that the local farm’s goats cheese selection is sensational, especially when paired with wines from the neighbouring vineyards.

Dating back to the late 18th century, this spectacular Dordogne manor house has been beautifully restored by its current owners, who've been careful to retain its character while adding those all-important modern conveniences for a stress-free stay. Original features, including marble floors, exposed stone walls and high beamed ceilings remain, with a mix of modern and antique furnishings adding to the overall effect.

Set in a small hamlet right by the river, its bucolic setting affords views of passing boats and swans as they glide serenely by – with only a lightly trafficked road separating you from the water's edge. In fact, one of the highlights of any stay is to spend a couple of hours canoeing downriver, taking in the views.

Return home to acres of grounds that the kids are sure to love exploring. We can picture spending many a sun-soaked afternoon spent by the pool with a glass in hand. With Bergerac, Saint-Émilion and Bordeaux all within driving distance, you're spoiled for local vintages.

Saddle up and cycle to the nearby town of Sainte-Foy-la-Grande, home to a spectacular Saturday market that's ideal for stocking up on essentials. In the opposite direction, the village of Le Fleix is known for its firework production, which guarantees a spectacular Bastille Day celebration. 

After spending your days cycling through vineyards, canoeing down the Dordogne or visiting beautiful local villages, the day ends relaxing by the pool beneath the star-pricked sky, with the scent of lavender filling the air.

Chateau en Suede

Foosball / Table Football

Built for the owner of one of the Cognac-producing estates in the 19th century, this manoir offers a blend of history and elegance. Set in over 3 hectares of parkland, the grounds are filled with century-old trees, roses, vines and fig trees. You’ll also find a private swimming pool with views towards Cognac. There’s a boules pitch for an afternoon match too. In fact, this place is perfect for families – there’s a games room with foosball, a pool table and table tennis. Another highlight is the interiors – the grand salon is particularly special with its windows overlooking the parkland. There’s so much space here, yet you're only just over 4 kilometres from Cognac with its restaurants and daily market.

Historic Vineyard Manor

Tucked away in the idyllic hamlet of le Deu, within the picturesque coastal resort of Dolus d'Oléron, discover the mesmerizing charm of this single-family house, known as 'The property'. Just a leisurely 1.5 km stroll from the sea and sandy beach at Vert-Bois, this stunning retreat offers a haven of tranquility. Immerse yourself in the exquisite beauty of this 4-room, 150 m2 house spread over two charming levels. Step inside and be greeted by the warmth and elegance of the beautifully furnished living/dining area. The open kitchen is a chef's paradise, fully equipped with modern appliances and a delightful terrace for al fresco dining. Upstairs, three enchanting bedrooms beckon you with their comfort and serenity. Relax on one of two terraces overlooking the peaceful courtyard. With reserved parking for two cars, Internet access, and various nearby attractions including museums and historic landmarks, this non-smoking oasis offers everything families need for an unforgettable escape to the French coast.

Serenity Cove

Although this home sits close to the centre of Bourdeaux – France's sixth-most populous city, no less – this home's cute facade would easily slot into a quiet corner of the surrounding wine-producing landscape. The patterned bricks, verandah and alfresco dining table on the decking all bring a taste of country living to this vibrant metropolis.

By contrast, the home's interior is a lot more contemporary than you might expect. Aside from the bright red sofa, the colour palette leans heavily on soothingly modern whites and greys. Decoration is sparse, but that's the current vogue for minimalism rather than neglect. We've got particular praise for the kitchen, which has a wealth of sleek surfaces for cooking up local ingredients. 

The local area has a residential feel, but guests are close to many of Bourdeaux's main attractions. Rue Sainte Catherine – one of the longest pedestrianised streets in Europe – is only 1km away and has a huge range of shops to peruse. There are characteristic cobbled streets and buildings in the historic district, only 1.5km from the front door.

A Drop of Red

Paid Parking

Located in the heart of Bordeaux's beautiful old town, this apartment embodies the class, style, and chicness of this city. The old stone building is the perfect first impression of Bordeaux, and stepping inside the apartment only confirms that this place is a gem of a find.

We love the classic details here – the original stone brick wall, the quintessentially French windows and the frame around the mirror. It's met with a modern design style that beautifully encapsulates the city – classic yet youthful. Your balcony offers a view of the street below, a lovely spot for enjoying a fresh cup of coffee and engaging in everyone's favourite past-time, people-watching. 

When it comes to seeing the city, you couldn't ask for a better location. You're a mere 200 metres from the lively Rue Sainte Catherine, the city's main artery, bursting with boutiques and shops. You're also steps away from Place Fernand Lafargue, lined with cafes and eateries. In such a fantastic location, seeing the city's many historical sights and points of interest comes with ease.

After a day of exploring, you can easily make your way back to your apartment to relax before heading out for dinner. You'll love sipping on a local bottle of wine (when in Bordeaux) and snacking on olives around the industrial chic-style table, with the warm-toned light fixtures setting the tone. 

Sweet Drops

A stay at this beautiful duplex apartment promises a truly unique experience, allowing you to marvel at the stunning views of the Garonne River from the privacy of your own terrace, as well as enjoying all the comforts that this luxurious gem has to offer. Situated just a short tram ride or a leisurely stroll from the historic centre, this pad is a dream base for those wishing to sample the many wonders that the City of Wine has in store.
 
As you arrive you’ll be welcomed by the beautiful entrance hall with a dedicated office space and the three plush bedrooms, including the master which offers a sleek ensuite bathroom. Head upstairs to find a huge open-plan living area, with plenty of room to kick back and relax with an evening of delicious wine and movies. From here you can also step out onto the terrace, which is a dream spot for those balmy nights in the company of your loved ones. 

If you don’t feel like eating out, the modern kitchen has you covered, with everything you may need to rustle up a delectable feast you can then serve at the indoor dining table or out on the terrace. 

In the morning, welcome the new day with coffee and breakfast while you gaze at the Pont de Pierre and plan your day’s adventures. Head over to the nearby Cite du Vin to learn all about the region’s love affair with wine or immerse yourself in the multisensory art experience at Les Bassins des Lumières. 

A Glass with a View 

Sitting in the middle of vineyards and rolling fields, this home's location in the Dordogne is the French countryside at its most picturesque and the living quarters are totally in keeping with this bucolic scene. 

There's an inimitable rustic charm to the interior's wooden ceiling beams, rough-hewn walls and tiled floor, but don't let this fool you into thinking that it's old and weathered – the owner restored this building after taking ownership and there's a contemporary sheen that is testament to the care and attention it's received.

Step out the door and you'll see a comparatively recent addition to the address in the shape of the swimming pool that's sure to be appreciated during the warmer months. There are plenty of peaceful spots to relax in the sloping garden full of flowers and shrubs – a perfect setting for sampling some of the owner's wine that she produces herself.

When it comes to seeing a little more of this region, the nearest village is Saint Antoine de Breuilh only 3km away and Saint-Emilion – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – is a half-hour drive away. There are plenty of opportunities for outdoor excursions and hikes, as well as jaunts to medieval villages and chateaux, too. 



Reign of Terroir

Modern and illuminated, this charming apartment is designed to maximise your Bordeaux city break. Soak up some history and culture from The Golden Triangle – its impressive architecture, significant statues and monuments, La Place de la Comédie, and the Grand Théâtre are just moments from your apartment – then head home to enjoy a glass from the region in your elegant space.

Minimal in design, this home balances modern touches with traditional features – we love the original wooden floors and beamed ceilings. It’s the kind of space that’s designed to enrich your stay with its bright and inviting atmosphere. And whether you're sipping your morning coffee at the kitchen bar, firing off a couple of emails from the bedroom’s desk space or preparing a Bordeaux-inspired dinner in the sleek kitchen – make sure to pick up your ingredients from the diverse and dynamic Marché des Capucins – there’s a sense of ease and openness here.

When you’re ready to step out and soak up the culture, you’ll be within walking distance of the Place de la Bourse, Opéra National de Bordeaux and Bordeaux Museum of Fine Arts. 

The Gold Triangle

Set within the bourgeois and bohemian streets of Les Chartrons, this apartment opens its doors to spectacular views across the River Garonne. 

Light, airy and full of character, the rooms provide the perfect setting for a relaxing city stay – one that will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired from the moment of arrival. And while the location sings with Bourdeaux’s historic charm, you’ll find this home provides more than a touch of contemporary comfort. 

From quiet mornings sipping coffee by the window to laid-back gatherings around the table and cosy evenings on the sofa, this is the kind of space that transforms to suit the mood of the moment.

Stepping outside, it’s just a short walk through the leafy streets of Les Chartrons to the vibrant bars and restaurants of the neighbourhood. The CAPC Contemporary Art Museum is right on your doorstep, while the Jardin Public is also just a short walk away – providing the perfect spot for dreamy picnics and sunset strolls around the lake.

The main space has a cathedral-style living room and kitchen, plus a mezzanine bedroom for kids and a ground-floor bedroom. You'll have access to a shared pool and a natural pond, as well as your own private terrace. From April to October, you can even pick as many vegetables as you want from the farm’s organic garden. Shops and restaurants are a short walk, but a car is useful for exploring. With Rochefort, Marennes, and Oléron twenty minutes away, plus Côte Sauvage's beaches just half an hour, it's worth it.

It’s a few minutes from the historic village of Saint-Émilion, and it overlooks idyllic Saint-Christophe-des-Bardes and the area’s lush valleys. Here, you can look forward to the comforts of a boutique hotel with total privacy. Outside, you’ll find a delightful swimming pool and an alfresco dining space, while inside the decor is dominated by old stone and wood – it’s rustic yet refined. We love the country-style kitchen, and the breakfasts prepared each day by the chef.
