Luxury 5* cottage with own private heated pool - Sleep 4

Enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the French countryside at our newly created, adults-only (see note below), five star The Lodge luxury cottage. With no nearby neighbours and views over our own small vineyard to the surrounding woods, our cottage offers an ideal opportunity to leave the cares and noise of every-day life behind and soak up the atmosphere whilst enjoying a glass of something chilled in your private, heated plunge pool.
Our property is located deep in the Bordeaux vineyards, a short drive from the beautiful, world famous hill-top village of St. Emilion and about 800m from the local village of Villegouge where you will find a small supermarket, hairdresser and artisan boulanger for your morning croissants. Libourne, a pretty bastide town located at the confluence of the Isle and Dordogne rivers, is around 10 minutes’ drive and all the sites and attractions of the beautiful city of Bordeaux are around 30 minutes away. A day trip to Arcachon combined with a visit to the Dune du Pilat, the tallest sand dune in Europe and one of the most popular destinations in France is a must.
All the major wine producing areas of Bordeaux (for example St. Emilion, Pomerol, Pauillac, St. Estèphe, Medoc and Margaux) are a short drive away making our cottage the perfect base to explore the wine-making properties and history of the Bordeaux region.
If you are looking for exciting nightlife and a hectic social whirl then The Lodge is probably not for you – If, instead, you seek peace, tranquillity and the beautiful surroundings of the Bordeaux hinterland then you should definitely come and visit us!

Please note that for stays shorter than 4 days there is a cleaning fee to add of 80 euros. Those guests booking for 4 or more nights have the cleaning cost included in the overall charge.

Please note: whilst we consider our cottages the ideal location for a relaxing break for those over 18, we are more than happy to accept youngsters over the age of 14 whose parents feel that they would fit into such an environment – please feel free to contact us if you have children under 18!
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker. Change of towels is available on request.

The ‘Lodge’ was the perfect accommodation for the Bordeaux part of our visit to France. It was a great jumping off point for visits to amazing Chateaux and historic towns. After a day of wine tasting, we enjoyed relaxing in the backyard with the lounges and pool. Indoors, the Lodge is the perfect configuration for 2 couples. Everything was clean and in excellent condition. The property delivered above expectations. Marta and Ian were very accommodating hosts and extremely responsive to our questions both before and during our stay. We would highly recommend staying at the ‘Lodge’ or the sister properties!

Great experience…however, the air conditioning in the main floor bedroom wasn’t connected, which made a few nights uncomfortable.

It is perfect if you are looking for relaxation and tranquility with the option of easily exploring the stunning surrounding region. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.

A fabulous week.

The house was beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean. Iain was friendly and helpful but kept very much in the background. The location was wonderful and just what we wanted with a lovely view from the property. I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you.

5* Luxury Lodge with own pool - 2 Double Bedrooms

High quality renovation with secluded outdoor space and heated pool. Quiet rural location in the vines near Fronsac and close to Libourne, St Emilion and many other interesting parts of the Bordeaux region. We had an excellent 4 day stay partly business and partly leisure!

Fabulous Find

We simply loved everything about this property both inside and out which was to a very high standard with absolutely everything necessary for a fabulous stay. Nothing was too much trouble for owners Iain and Marta and we valued their recommendations and advice on the local area. The outside area was a haven of peace and tranquillity, sitting out with a glass of Chateau Dom Peyreton, enjoying the sun, pool and wonderful view from the garden to the woods. Would definitely recommend this property and hosts as a great base to stay, relax and explore the region.
