aint-Émilion is located in the heart of the famous Bordeaux wine region and has become dynamic destination in its own right, post-Covid featuring dynamic vineyards, fantastic cuisine and exciting new hotel offerings.

The wondrous thing about Saint-Émilion is that there is a huge choice of restaurants, from simple bistros to temples of French gastronomy. We recommend exploring this region a bit deeper, beyond the classic, Bordeaux daytrip, and spend two to three-days discovering this booming region featuring a fascinating village rich in history, chic new hotels and amazing, dynamic wines.

Once you have decided on either one of our recommended charming B&B style hotels or chateau properties for your stay, you will discover wine galore along with access to the most prestigious properties, plus, the possibility to organize an exceptional meal in a private cellar in town with (and I really mean this!) practically any wine you can imagine! If you have dreamed of tasting it, then there is a good chance we will be able to make that dream come true…
