The property is as advertised. Quiet, peaceful setting in lovely vineyards. 15 minutes from St Emilion. The kitchen was great to cook in and the table in front of the working fireplace was a great gathering point for our friends. Highly recommend a visit to the small family vineyard in St Emilion— Chateau Mauvinon and the Sunday market at Libourne.
This is a great property. Maxime is a fantastic host and super quick to respond. We thoroughly enjoyed our weeklong stay. Everything was perfect.
I recommend that for non-French guests there should be more recommendations about wineries to visit, best local restaurants, bakeries, etc.
Overall, a wonderful stay!!!
We stayed here for a week in June. The house is amazing and has every facilty that you could hope for including a home cinema!
The pool and gardens are lovely and the surround area is peaceful and beautiful.
With Branne about a 10 min drive away you have a decent sized supermarket, a couple of bars and a very nice restaurant.
Overall we were very impressed with the house and gardens and Maxime has done a great job providing this amazing house.
I travel alot so often use this site and this property is a standout. The check in was very easy from Maxine and Christine! Everything is top of the range and state of the art. Couldn’t recommend it more highly. Really excited to return for longer next time! French perfection.
The house is located about 15 minutes from St Emilion, in pretty vineyard surroundings. It is a beautiful property, lovingly restored, with a stunning kitchen and living area. The en suite bedrooms are comfortable, and the poolside is perfect for lazy days relaxing with family and friends. The house and grounds are very spacious, and we were more than happy with our choice. You would need to drive to get groceries, as the village of Guillac is very small, but has some lovely vineyard walks. Our only request would be that the house provide cushions for all the sun loungers at the poolside, as we were six adults, and only four loungers had cushions for comfort. All in all, an idyllic stay!
The property is truly amazing and well-kept and very clean. It was very, very hot when we were there and there is no air conditioning or fans. We got by of opening the windows of a night but that let in the bugs. The pool was way too cold to swim in. I think in that heat some fans would have solved the problem. Definitely would stay again and there was nothing that we were lacking. Everything is closed on Sundays including the supermarkets. Maxine, the host, was extremely helpful.
un endroit parfait pour se retrouver en famille.
la pièce de vie avec la cheminée est idéale pour y passer du temps
les chambres sont très spacieuses
je recommande cette location
Un grand merci à Christine pour sa disponibilité !
Maison très agréable ! Merci au propriétaire pour les conditions d’arrivée et de départ souples. Et surtout un grand merci à Christine ! Au petit soin et très agréable! Merci pour tout
We rented this property for a week’s family vacation and couldn’t have made a better choice. The house, pool and grounds were stunning and came well equipped with everything you could reasonably need or want. And the owners responded immediately to any questions or minor problems we encountered. Overall we had a fantastic stay and would heartily recommend this accommodation.
Notre séjours, 4 couples, s'est parfaitement déroulé.
comme nous le souhaitions, au calme avec des l'espace et de quoi faire de belles balades à pieds. La maison est très bien entretenue et les lits très confortables. Notre hôte fut à l'écoute et une communication très rapide.
Je vous recommande cette tres jolie maison.
belle demeure, belle propriété, au milieu des vignes, calme absolu, endroit idéal pour passer un très bon séjour a plusieurs.

Magnifique demeure au calme
Une très belle rénovation pour cette demeure, beaucoup de charme et de style. De grandes chambres avec salle de bains attenante, une superbe cuisine bien équipée et une agréable piscine sur terrasse abritée. Endroit parfait pour quelques jours de repos ou de découverte de cette belle région. Nous aurions aimé rester plus longtemps !

Wonderful stay close to St. Emilion
This rental is more like a chateau than a house! It's very spacious with plenty of room for our children to play inside and out. Perfect for several families to stay together. The house has old world charm but has top of the line fixtures and appliances.
Our only recommendations to make the place more family friendly is to have a baby gate blocking the private upstairs and for sturdier chairs at the dining table. Also, it would be nice to have a way to play your own movies on the cinema screen in addition to the DVD collection provided.
Located close to St. Emilion, it's a great spot to explore wineries.
Maxime was very responsive and easy to communicate with.
Thanks again for the great stay!

For many reasons....we were disappointed
This could be an incredible house and in many ways it was. However, we found many areas lacking and the overall impression from the pictures was deceiving. The owner knows that there are cleaning issues....bathrooms and bedrooms not clean. The house was cold and we actually had to keep our jackets on the whole time we were there. The audio did not work on the 'fabulous big screen system'. All that said, the owner is working on all these issues and I'm sure will find ways to 'fix the problems'. The house is huge, a real chateau. I will recommend this property when I'm assured that all is ready.

Wonderful!
We had a wonderful long weekend at the property to celebrate my father's 70th birthday.
The owner Maxime was a pleasure to deal with in the run-up to our stay and his Father, who lives in a separate cottage near the house, was on hand to let us in on arrival and show us around.
The house itself has been wonderfully renovated. All three double-bedrooms were spacious and each had a modern en suite bathroom. The room my 4 and 2 year old niece and nephew stayed in was perfect for small children. The kitchen/diner was spacious and very well equipped. The sitting room very comfortable.
However, what made the property for us was the fantastic outdoor facilities. The large garden was perfect for the children to play in, with the trampoline, swings and slide all massive hits. The pool, which is safely fenced off, was a superb added a bonus given the hot weather.
The location of the property is also great. It is in a very pretty area. The local village of Branne (4km away) has a supermarket, butchers, bakery etc. and it was very easy to get to St Emilion from the house.
All in all, a fantastic house, which we all loved staying at.

Stunning home and beautiful area
We were two families with four children and we stayed here for 5 days. The exterior space is outstanding especially the pool and patio area; the children loved swimming everyday. The garden is enormous and we would have used it more had we stayed there for longer. Inside is equally impressive with a very spacious modern kitchen and even a home cinema which we used to entice the children out of the pool when the heat became too much. The rooms and bathrooms are of a good standard. The owners were perfectly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The area is perfect for a short break with chateaux and pretty villages all around. Highly recommended!
