It was fantastic! The location was great and it was spacious and well equipped. So clean!!! The grocery store and butcher shop are a 5 minute walk away. The setting is perfect as you are on the edge of town and surrounded by vineyards. Walk a few minutes and you have your choice of restaurants. Large outdoor area to sit and enjoy the sunshine. Host is very responsive.

Outstanding stay!
We were looking for a place close to St Emilion and this checked all the boxes!! Lovely home with excellent amenities in the the kitchen and a comfortable space for friends and family. Five minute walk into the picturesque village of St Emilion. Very quiet and a bonus was walking through the local vineyards on their many trails. Our host, Isabelle, was very responsive and helpful.

St Emilion at your doorstep
Isabelle’s home is in the in the absolute perfect location to explore the numerous wineries in the St Emilion village. She was awaiting our arrival, gave perfect direction on the layout and then even walked one of our family members into the village to show the location for our reservation for dinner that evening. I want to go back now! Thank you, Isabelle! We will come back.

Home away from home
This is our second stay in this house and we enjoyed it as much as our first. The house is very well equipped and comfortable and in a fabulous location. Although it is only a short walk to the centre of the village its location provides you with a quiet haven away from the tourist bustle. Isabelle is a wonderful host and provides lots of information on the location including restaurants and chateaus to visit. This is definitely on our 'come back' list.

Excellent Accommodation and Hostess
The cottage is perfectly located, very roomy and well appointed. We had dinner in the garden most evenings. We needed help to get fuel and Isabelle went out of her way and came to the petrol station to assist. It is not air conditioned, and temps were up to low 30s in June and it was warm but fine inside.

Beautiful home in the vineyards
If you are looking for a great home close to all St Emilion has to offer, this home is it. You open the gate to a big gravel area for your car bordered by a large grass lawn complete with many loungers. The house is lovely with a fully equipped kitchen, dining area and lounge on the main floor. Roomy bedrooms (3) are upstairs. There are two bathrooms one up and a large one downstairs. We really enjoyed our stay there. You are a 5 minute walk to the centre of town with its many restaurants and wine stores. To be enjoyed.

Perfect location for a visit to Saint Emilion
You really cannot get a better location for a rental house in Saint Emilion. Just a block or so away from the center of town. The house was very nice with a big, well-equipped kitchen and plenty of room for 4-6 people. The outside front lawn is fantastic for sitting around the table, sipping local wines and playing cards. For American tourists, just be aware there are 2 toilettes and neither is in a bedroom. It was not a problem for us, but I know sometimes it is confusing trying to understand what constitutes a 'bathroom' in France. If you have not visited Saint Emilion, just be aware that about 4-5 tour buses show up every day and the streets are packed with tourists, then they leave in the evening. The shops there really cater to the tourists, so everything is pretty expensive. Isabelle is very responsive and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend this property if you want to visit Saint Emilion and the region!

2020 replanned trip.
The property was good. The host does not speak English and I do not speak French. There is always room for mid-interpretation which happened with when we were supposed to advise on when we were to check in. Because of this, the host was rude. She was rude throughout the entire check in process. She supplies nothing, you need to clean and she charges for additional (different) cleaning and she wanted to come to check the place before our check-out date. We have stayed in many short term rentals in France and other countries and own short term rentals ourselves and have never experienced anything like this before. Truly a downer to our vacation.

Absolutely perfect in every way!
We can't recommend this house enough. Isabelle was an amazing, kind and informative hostess. She told us all about the house when we arrived and it was lovely to learn about some of its history in her family. The heart of Saint Emilion was a 5-6 minute walk from the house. The house has a beautiful, well equipped and large kitchen. The bedrooms are all large and the bathrooms are all updated with modern amenities. All furnishings are comfortable and exquisite. It is set on a beautiful piece of land with a vineyard literally across the street from the house. It is a quiet and peaceful location with lots of trees and birds that are an absolute delight to hear singing. Despite being so close to the center of Saint Emilion, during our stay, the area was quiet and peaceful. We felt safe walking at all times to and from the city and back to the house. I can't say enough good things about this property. If you have the ability to stay here, we would say you should absolutely do so. Thanks again to Isabelle for sharing her amazing home with us.

Spacious, central with a huge yard.
Isabelle was warm and eager to see that we had a good time and offered guidance if we had needed it for sites, etc. We had more difficulty communicating than with most people on our trip (we speak only English and Spanish, plus maybe 200 words in French). Google translate was important to have on hand- so be sure to download it if you're in the same boat! The yard and house both were much larger than I thought- perfect for our son to have outdoor space to play, and the large sitting room looks onto the flowering garden. Note that like any French town you can find specialty food shops (cheese, local specialties, bread/pastries), but more general groceries will mean a short drive out of town. In town and rather close to the house there's something more like a convenience store (with convenience store prices), which does have a small selection of fruit and pre-packaged meats plus the basics. A 60 euro cleaning fee is not really optional unless you do a full house-cleaning yourself, and this isn't noted in the quote. I had thought the optional housecleaning was relevant only if staying multiple weeks and wanting housekeeping services along the way, but it is also required for the end of a shorter visit. This was likely the most expensive place we stayed on our 3 week trip, but we'd splurge again for how nice it is and how well-located. You can avoid driving in the medieval center while being only 250 yards from the old town entrance on foot.

Beautiful Gite in a Great Location
The house is large and beautifully maintained. It is in a perfect location in St. Emilion and was a good place to be a springboard for travel around the vineyards in the area. The house was very tastefully decorated. There was a nice outside sitting area. There are two large bedrooms upstairs. One has a shower and sink in the bedroom. Between the two bedrooms is a toilet room. There is a full bathroom with toilet and shower downstairs. The placement of the bathrooms made sharing them a bit awkward with figuring out which to use. A toilet in the bedroom shower room would really help. The owner initially seemed abrupt (she showed some irritability with me not understanding how to work the shutters). There were a number of rules to follow (not walking on the carpeting with shoes, the shutters) that seemed overwhelming and made us quite cautious throughout the time of our stay. Aside from that I would still heartily recommend the Gite and the owner was very nice when we checked out.
