Our accommodation comprises of four one bedroom gites that have been developed while renovating the old farmhouse on our vineyard.
We have made every effort to blend modern, stylish accommodation with the character of the old building to create a place that is both luxurious and comfortable.
Our Cottage Gite is very private and three of our gites are set in the courtyard of our working vineyard allowing you to feel a real part of the wine industry that this area is world famous for. Rolling countryside and outstanding views surround, walk through the vines, pause in the woodland and stroll down the valley where you can find tranquillity punctuated by the sites and sounds of the business of making fine wines.
We have two helpers here on the vineyard, Branston and Pickle, the resident dog and cat, who have important roles to play. Being their home we are unable to allow guests to bring their own pets.
We are very lucky to live in such a glorious part of France and want to share with you what we fell in love with.
