Ease through a beautiful wrought iron gate to a courtyard and an elegant 1700s creamy stone holiday house, part of the château estate

This is perfect for a couple, or as overflow from the château or the other gite next door. Walk in to a lovely light space with high ceilings, wooden floors, a huge fireplace with a wood-burner and a TV with UK programmes. A spacious, airy kitchen with all the kit will keep cooks happy and you'll also find a welcome basket of local goodies and a bottle of wine produced by a neighbour - if you like it you can have a tasting.

Doors from the living room open onto the outside space with a large fig tree, table and chairs, barbecue and sun loungers - a good spot for listening to birds and reading a book. For views over the stunning countryside and the ruins of Château-de-Gurson you need to walk round the building next door. A ten-minute cycle will take you to the lake for a cooling swim.

Walk through the vineyards to St-Martin-de-Gurson for your morning croissants, or have them delivered.

Local points of interest from Justine & Michael Elliott:

Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Justine & Michael Elliott:

  • Just over a mile away, the ruined Chateau de Gurson overlooks the Lac de Gurson, a charming swimming lake with beach, playground, cafe, and kayaking and paddle boarding in the summer months.
  • Cycling and walking routes thread their way between villages and vineyards in the beautiful countryside around the chateau. Just next door, Vincent the vigneron makes the excellent Reve de Ternac wine, and always welcomes visitors to taste and buy.
  • You're 30 minutes from St Emilion, a remarkable medieval town at the centre of one of the world's premier wine regions. Stroll the cobbled streets, explore the life of the eponymous saint, buy fabulous wine and have lunch in one of the many great bistros.
  • The chic, cosmopolitan city of Bordeaux is just an hour away. From flea markets to designer boutiques to the foodie heaven of the Marché du Capucins, there's shopping for everyone. Bordeaux also boasts museums, theatres and a thriving culinary scene.
  • Dordogne markets are full of life, and a chance to find local specialties like heritage vegetables, foie gras, and Perigord truffles. The Saturday market in St Foy le Grande, just 15 minutes away, has been voted one of the best markets in France.
  • For trips further afield, the beaches and surfing of Arcachon and Cap Ferret are reachable for a day trip, as are the castles, caves and bastide towns of the upper Dordogne.
