General & History

This chic Chateau in the Bordeaux vines has a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere and staff on hand to make sure life's really easy for you.

There are complimentary spa products in the bathrooms and iPod docks in every bedroom.

Dinners and lunches can be provided for you on request. You and your family and friends can enjoy the setting that this stunning medieval chateau affords but in contemporary style and luxury.

Like many historic buildings, the chateau has been developed and added to over many centuries. The tower is thought to date back as far the 12th Century whilst other sections date from the 15th and, most recently, the 17th Centuries. The chateau overlooks the battle ground of the final confrontation of the 100 years war, when the French finally defeated the English and thus brought an end to the British rule of Aquitatine. The battle is celebrated in an annual pageant in the nearest town, Castilon La Bataille.
