La Gravouse - Self-catering house in Gironde
33220 Saint Andre et Appelle, Gironde
Aquitaine,
Francia
The oldest part of this wine chateau dates from 1750 but has been added onto over the years, with the original house and chai now forming a spacious home with elegant, high-ceilinged bedrooms bathed in natural light. Kids will love having their own room with bunk beds.
This is a great place to escape from it all. Stream films or escape to the library with a board game or a book; play table football or darts in the games room. Outside, stroll among the the mature grounds and pear, peach and cherry trees; relax on the terraces with magnificent views - light the barbecue and take in the gorgeous sunset.
There's a book in the house with local recommendations, and you're a short drive from restaurants, shops and a fabulous Saturday market in Sainte Foy la Grande. Borrow a bicycle and cycle through the countryside, visit wineries in Bordeaux and Bergerac, canoe along the Dordogne River. St Emilion is 40 minutes, Bergerac 30 minutes.

Local points of interest from Anna Lilley:
Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Anna Lilley:
- When the sun is shining there are a variety of garden games, including tennis, table tennis, croquet and boule (all equipment provided). For cozy winter evenings, there are four woodburning stoves and a range of board games.
- Enjoy pre-dinner drinks and al fresco dining under sparkly skies on the various terraces around the house. Depending on the season, the garden is brimming with fruit: pears, apples, peaches, cherries, blackberries, figs - help yourselves!
- Sainte Foy la Grande (7 minutes by car) comes alive on Saturday mornings, as locals and visitors alike come to enjoy the local produce at one of the best markets in France. There are several markets held through the week in the different local towns.
- The house is in the heart of the wine region, with many local chateaux. Take a stroll to Chateau Picon to taste wine from the neighbouring vines or spend the evening at their night market. Visit historic St Emilion, 40 minutes drive away.
- Hire kayaks in Sainte Foy la Grande and take a gentle paddle down the Dordorgne, stopping for pain au chocolate and a swim on the way.
