Client comments

"The Château is very pretty and the pool is fantastic. I really enjoyed playing in the tennis court even though I am not very good at it. The weather has been great which made the holiday even better. The bedrooms and living rooms were very comfortable. Thank you very much for letting us stay in your beautiful Château."
Bethany B (aged 9), Scotland

"Bordeaux is indeed beautiful. Château Garonne was a beautiful and relaxing experience and we all enjoyed it thoroughly. You have a lovely home in a fantastic location. Having not been in France for years the trip has rekindled my interest - this may have been the first of
many future visits!"
Jonathan R, Scotland

"Thanks for a lovely week in your Château, we really did have a wonderful week and were sad to leave. The house is so well equipped that we really did not miss anything from home. The kids loved jumping in and out of the pool and relaxing around the garden. Christophe is a brilliant find, he cooked us all two lovely meals, if we could have booked him for the full week we would have done so, maybe next time!"
Neil R, UK

"Your home is absolutely beautiful and the setting just idyllic. We very much appreciated your attention to detail, I hope the orchids survived as we did not realise they were real until the blooms started dropping off! We could have easily spent more time in the area, there is so much to see and do. We did manage a visit to both St Emilion and Bordeaux. Thank you again for such a wonderful week."
