CHARMING VILLAGE HOUSE! near Bergerac StEmillion Bordeaux, heated pool jacuzzi
Welcome to « La Maison aux Volets Bleus » or translated « The House with the Blue Shutters »
NEW: - Aircon/heating in all rooms at "La Maison aux Volets Bleus"!! - completely repainted - new kitchen - charging point electric car
Building and renovating has become our second nature…. We fell for the charmes of this old stone house … In this village house in Saint Martin de Gurson, at about 100m from our home, there used to be a pharmacy. It dates from the years 1800…now we put our stamp on it…
The white gable is in a beautiful contrast with the clear bleu shutters. It’s a surprising house. It’s a lot bigger than it shows from the outside!
We maintained the old authentic buidling elements as old doors and wooden floors, but as we love modern decoration too, we mixed it with lots of white and design.
In total there are 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a library, a pool table room, a lounge with a big fire place, an open kitchen and a huge covered barn and fenced garden of 1000m2.
The village house is only for rent as a whole and can accommodate 1,2 or 3 families. It sleeps up to 13+ persons. Ideal for a unique vacation on a lovely spot; Towels and bed linen are included, as well as gaz,water, wood, water etc…as also a change over cleaning at Saturdays.

Wonderful property in quiet village
Thank you so much Irish for a lovely stay at your wonderful house. It was very comfortable with lots of space for 8 adults. Iris provided great recommendations for things to do around Saint Martin de Gurson and the village has a bar and a small shop. The jacuzzi was a big hit!

House exceeded our expectations with so much room. Felt like home so quickly.
We really enjoyed our stay. There was so much more space than we had thought before arriving. As the weather was so good we spent most of our time in the garden and pool. The hot tub was a lovely added luxury. We often wandered around the village (popping into the bar for a cheeky G&T on the way home). The village is beautiful and quiet. We walked to a local vineyard once (the rose Iris suggested was lovely in the sunny garden). We also explored some of the local towns and villages. We found Iris' suggestions of places to visit/eat really helpful. It meant we could avoid the tourist traps. We would definitely recommend this property (especially for young families) as a safe and simple holiday.

Excellent WE en famille
Nous avons adoré ce gîte , il y règne une ambiance "maison de famille" très chouette. Spacieux, bien équipé, décoration soignée (gros coup de cœur pour le salon extérieur !). On à (particulièrement les enfants) apprécié les équipements de loisirs, la piscine, billard, jacuzzi, le grand jardin clos ! La campagne environnante est très jolie, les paysages sur la route de St Émilion sont superbes. Et pour finir Iris est très agréable, et disponible. Fanny

Belle maison, spacieuse, bien équipée
Maison agréable, qui doit pouvoir maintenir la fraicheur pendant l'été! L'extérieur est bien "isolé", sans vis-à-vis et c'est très appréciable. Un bbq est mis à disposition, ainsi qu'une grande table, des chaises longues... Tout y est! Coté cuisine, il y a un piano gaz 5 feux et un grand four, un lave vaisselle, une machine à laver... La salle de jeux (billard, babyfoot) est un gros plus surtout lorsque le temps est maussade. Le jacuzzi est top également lorsque l'on ne peut pas profiter de la piscine.
Il y a de nombreux équipements de bébé (chaise haute, parc en bois, des lits adaptés, un anneau de bain...) ainsi que des barrières de sécurité.
Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour malgré la fraicheur en ce début mai.
Les propriétaires sont très accueillants et à l'écoute. Ils se rendent disponibles en cas de besoin et sont charmants. Je recommande cette location. Nous reviendrions avec plaisir!
