I loved the location it was so quiet and peaceful away from the hustle and bustle of the city with views of the Dordogne river, you could watch the sunrise and sunset from the large front garden or by the river, the scenery was beautiful, the accommodation was lovely, modern and cozy with everything you need, situated off the main villa so although attached was completely separate with its own entrance, conveniently located just 40 minutes drive from the centre of Bordeaux and close to local villages, supermarket and towns, our hosts Gerard and Vivien were so lovely, kind and thoughtful, very welcoming and although we couldnt speak French (or extremely little) we had fun trying to communicate, they arranged a wine tasting trip for us at a nearby vineyard which was amazing and invited us to join them with a New Years Eve tradition of drinks and lighting a lantern to bring blessings and good luck for the forthcoming year, we felt honoured and privileged! Gerard was happy to show us around the amazing cave system that was in the back garden only discovered a few years after they first moved it, was used as a wine cellar but now home to really sweet local wildlife in the form of bats, being animal lovers we were in our element, I would highly recommend staying here if you want to get away, our stay was during the Christmas and new year break, the weather was warmer than the UK and we even had a Christmas tree made for us from the garden with fairy lights to enjoy during our stay
