美しく復元された鳩の塔と改造された納屋。

Bonjour, I’m Nicole. Originally from Guadeloupe in the Caribbean, I have made my home between Le Puy and London for over 20 years. I spend each summer living in the farmhouse adjoining the Pigeonnier, joining in with rambling groups, being involved in the local historical society, and enjoying the cultural events hosted in Monsegur. During my stays, I am always on-hand to share my knowledge of the region with my guests, to make sure they get as much from staying here as I do.

The Pigeonnier is perfectly secluded, part of a quiet hilltop hamlet set among acres of farmland and nestled within the award-winning vines of the Chateaux Aux Tuilieries vineyard. But what I love most is that alongside the quiet is plenty to see and do; long walks in the countryside, live music and excellent food at Monsegur’s night market (between June and September), or day-trips to the historic town of St Emilion, to Bordeaux, or even as far as the coast at Arcachon.

At The Pigeonnier, you’re able to stay inside a unique part of French architecture, part of something that has shaped this region for hundreds of years. My family has lived here for more than 40 years since my sons helped renovate the main farmhouse in the 1980s, enjoying the tranquility, culture, and excellent food and drink that this part of France offers. Positioned right next door to an award-winning vineyard and within perfect day-trip distance of beautiful, historic towns, it’s a secluded spot that leaves south-west France right on its doorstep.
