About this property
Charming House with Pool, hot tub and Sauna in the Heart of the Saint-Emilion
Imagine a weekend blending relaxation, discovery, gastronomy, and authenticity in the heart of the Saint-Émilion vineyards.
Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed by a charming stone house that combines authenticity and comfort. As you step inside, you’ll feel the warmth of the space immediately. In the living room, a cozy fire crackles, and a selection of wines* awaits to start the weekend on a smooth note.
While some settle in front of the big screen to watch the evening match (with full Canal+ access), others are already at home in the open kitchen, equipped like a professional culinary workshop: a range cooker, two ovens, butcher’s block, set of knives, pots, and everything you need to prepare a grand meal together. Dinner promises to be convivial around the majestic square table where everyone easily finds their place.
After dinner, the evening continues with a game of darts or board games in the lounge. For the adventurous, a midnight swim followed by a comforting sauna session is the perfect way to end the day.
You’ll then finally take a moment to discover your bedroom. Hotel-quality bedding and linens await, ready to envelop you for a restful night’s sleep.
The next morning, after breakfast under the pergola with fresh-ground coffee, toast, and pressed juice, head out to discover the treasures of Saint-Émilion, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Wander through the medieval streets, climb the King’s Tower, and visit the surrounding wine cellars.
Returning to the estate in the late afternoon, it's the perfect time to relax in the Nordic bath. This quiet moment of relaxation with a glass of bubbles in hand, immersed in warm water*, is one of the small pleasures of this stay. Will it be followed by a tasting of the estate’s wines*?
For dinner, the private chef* will prepare a four-course meal. Settle in and let yourself be transported by a subtle play of flavors, each dish paired with a perfectly orchestrated wine. A true gastronomic moment brought right to you, so you can focus on savoring the experience.
On Sunday morning, take a stroll through the Libourne market to stock up on local products. Back at the estate, the garden becomes a lively place once again. Some are on barbecue duty, others settle into deck chairs or hammocks, while a game of pétanque or Mölkky gets underway nearby.
If you’re lucky enough to extend your stay, a multitude of activities awaits: a hike in Fronsac, a round of golf in Saint-Émilion (17 km away), surfing on the Mascaret wave, a bike ride through the vineyards, or even a trip to Bordeaux. The choice is yours!

We had a wonderful stay. Caroline is diligent and responsive as a host. She arranged for a local chef to visit and cook a spectacular lunch for us and the owner Clement did the wine pairing for the dishes that were served. The property is close to zst Emillion as well as grocery stores which was vert convenient.
This property couldn't be better! We stayed for a week with our family of 11, with a range of ages from 8 to 81. Everyone had a wonderful time. It is beautifully appointed and very comfortable. Has a charming old French farmhouse feel, but with modern amenities - especially in the kitchens and bathrooms. There are three double rooms inside the house, one dorm-style kids' room with a double bed and two twins, plus an additional double room in a tiny detached room/house near the pool. The pool and sauna are great, and the dining pergola is perfect, and larger than the photos make it appear. The hosts were so friendly and accommodating and quick to respond. Everything you could possibly need is a quick drive to Libourne - 5 minutes away. And Saint Émilion, in the other direction, is a picture-perfect, cobbled-street, church-atop-the-hill French town. A 35 minute drive to Bordeaux, and a longer drive to Cap Ferret. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Enjoy your vacation in the vineyards!
Une maison très agréable, bien décorée, avec une cuisine très bien équipée et fonctionnelle.L'extérieur est reposant.La maison est idéalement située au milieu des vignes de Saint Emilion. Je recommande.
Grande maison aménagée avec goût et extrêmement bien équipée pour un groupe d'ami.e.s ou des vacances en famille : beaucoup de couchages, cheminée, grande table/cuisine équipée (comme rarement vu dans des locations saisonnières), spa, bain nordique, piscine... Clément, le propriétaire du domaine, peut vous proposer une dégustation de son vin - je recommande.
Encore merci à Caroline pour la gestion de l'arrivée et du départ !
