HOLIDAY RENTAL PROPERTY
Cottage for rent in Gironde  Aquitaine  France

Our home is a beautifully restored "maison de maître" with three holiday suites, two self-catering cottages, and the main manor on 8 acres of wooded land. The entire property is surrounded by the vineyards of Côte de Blaye. The house dates largely from the 18th century with the oldest part dating back to the 16th century. The house was once owned by one of the kings tax collectors. Our property is very secluded. This private location will ensure an exceptionally calm setting for your vacation or weekend getaway. La Sauvageonne is an ideal destination for wine lovers and walking enthusiasts alike and lies central to both beach and vineyards. A half of an hour to the south, you can drive to many excellent vineyards near Blaye, Bourg, and further on to Saint Emillion. If you head north, youll reach the beaches of Royan in under 45 minutes. Closer to home, the Gironde estuary is seven kilometers away and is bordered by a large 35km x 7km acre marsh which serves as a natural reserve. The reserve has several narrow paved trails and makes for an ideal circuit for cyclists. Lastly, if you simply want to relax by the poolside, well be glad to serve lunch or snacks and provide beverages throughout the day. The cottage has two levels: top level is a spacious elegantly decorated bedroom that has views onto the garden and woods. Further in the distance, one can spot the Gironde Estuary. The bedroom has a queen size bed as well as a babys crib. The ground level has a large dining room and living room area and opens onto a patio area that has tables, chairs, and barbecue for outdoor dining. A kitchen, bath with large walk-in shower, and toilet as well as a laundry area with washing machine complete this level. DVD player and TV allow for a lazy day of staying put and relaxing. You are also welcome to dine in the evening in the main manor.
