We were quite unlucky.. Of the 52 weeks within one year, we choose to stay here during the one week of rain. Luckily, the house offers enough opportunities to relax and enjoy, such as the ping pong table and mini soccer.
And of course, there is always sunshine after the rain. So during the second part of our stay, we could enjoy the swimming pool, walk between the vineyards, play some 'jeu de boules' and enjoy our surroundings even more. The swimming pool is fenced so a big plus when traveling with small children. Also, there are bedrooms and bathrooms divided over the two floors, allowing privacy when traveling with friends.
If you would like to plan some visits, I would definitely recommend St-Emilion. Have a picnic in the monastery, fetch the key for the bell tower, walk through the picturesque streets and don't forget to taste some wine. Additionally, we have visited the chateau Coutet, an organic Saint-Emilion Grand Cru wine house with one of the best tour guides ever. Finally, don't forget to ask the host Pascal for a tour in Chateau Caban, accompanying the guest house!
