Castle vacation rentals in Gironde estuary

My friends and I had the best stay. Absolutely beautiful location and gorgeous chateau. Everything was exactly how it was described, if not better. Nicolas and Caroline were incredibly responsive and gave the best recommendations. A particular stand out was the wine tour that was lead by Maud. Highly recommend staying here at this incredible Airbnb, such a wonderful experience.

Beautiful home in a small quiet village. Great home base for a week to explore Bordeaux and to spend family time by the pool.

We had a lovely stay at Fabrice’s beautiful estate. The mansion is large, well decorated, private and has a well stocked kitchen and cosy living room. We enjoyed many nights eating outside at the private patio. The shared pool is great - large enough to do laps, nice temperature, and has great accessories. The surroundings are stunning, you are in the middle of the vineyards. We will definitely try to stay at Fabrice’s place again!

Wow what an amazing and unique place to stay at. Unfortunately it rained during our stay so we didn’t get to enjoy the beautiful pool like we hoped to but that didn’t stop us from enjoying the airbnb and wine tasting in the surrounding areas. The host was extremely responsive, helped us book a private chef, and gave us a ton of recommendations. I would 100% recommend this Airbnb to anyone who wants to stay in a unique historical place.

Location location location ... Pessac Sur Dordogne is a lovely quiet village. No boulanger but a very good village shop where you can get your croissants and baguettes, but prebook the croissants day by day. We really enjoyed the river beach, wild swimming but the toddlers toddled in and out of the shallows. There's a more organised beach in Castillon. Castillon lovely. Kayak rental in the village was fine - the river flows quite fast. The chateau is full on, rambling, 7 huge bedrooms, 2 central bathrooms upstairs plus one en suite. Good receptions. Kitchen well equipped. The whole place evidently just vacated by the family, so don't expect immaculate 5-star luxury (sofa needs re-springing) but it was comfortable and large. Endless ping pong and footie in the courtyard, cycle rides. A restaurant in the village, which we didn't try but many round about. We drank Bergerace wines from the Maison des Vins in Bergerac which I would recommend.

A big thank you to Cyntia and Guillaume for this wonderful weekend in the heart of their beautiful home. We had an unforgettable weekend with the family. We'll come back without hesitating. The house is perfectly sized for the number of beds. The little extras: The kitchen is not lacking anything in dishes, utensils, condiments, etc. All the baby equipment is very much appreciated: baby bed, changing table, bathtub and high chair. Everything is there to have a great time with family or friends. A big thank you!

Thank you so much Maria and Damien for a wonderful weekend - everything was just perfect. The chateau was beautiful, in lively surroundings and extremely well equipped with lots of lovely touches throughout. The wine tasting was phenomenal and it was great to be able to purchase the wine straight from the comfort of the kitchen. Maria and Damien were amazing hosts, very responsive, giving great tips and offering so much flexibility to make our trip as great as could be. The dogs were so lovely too! We enjoyed being able to walk the quieter country roads nearby, including to Haux village to the nice Auberge. We really hope to come back soon.

Anais is always responsive to my questions and requests. She and Bastane are very friendly with their kids and pets. We feel like staying at home during our short stay at their castle. Anais satisfies our requests without hesitation, and the castle is very spacious. They are renovating the castle, and I believe the rent will even be better after the renovation is complete.

Our stay was magical! It was amazing waking up to the vista of the beautiful French countryside in the heart of the Bordeaux wine region. Delphine and family were extremely welcoming and made everything super easy, the property is so beautiful and the castle has so much history. We even bought some wine made from their vineyard! An amazing French breakfast was served as well. The hospitality was amazing, we just wish we could’ve stayed longer. Would recommend to anyone for a romantic getaway.
