Portes de Bordeaux - 5-star chateau - organic vineyard

Florence was always available and responded quickly. property beautiful. could have used a bbq perhaps but overall we really enjoyed our stay

Nice accommodations, and do yourself a favor and have brunch at Chateau Chelivette. Everything was pleasant about our stay.

Overall 5 star plus. Communication with Florence was very good. She was very accommodating with early afternoon checkin. The chateaux itself exceeded all expectations and the photos don't do it or the views justice. It is located a short drive to Bordeaux but there is also a train station a few km away that will bring you to Bordeaux in a few minutes. Very memorable trip.

This is a 'proper' Chateau, in a secluded, raised position looking out at across its own vineyards giving a sense of peace. Each bedroom is of a good size and has a sense of character. Ample reception space allowing a large party to spread out and not be on top of one another - that said, we spent nearly our time on the Terrace. The pool is well kept and clean. Whilst in a rural spot, it is only a short drive, there is a large superstore etc around 10 mins drive away, along with easy access to major routes and Bordeaux city, making this a great 'best of both' location to both relax in and also be a base for touring the area. We would definitely return

VBRO was really nice with lots of room. All areas of the Chateau met our needs very well. Suggestion would be to rent a car/van. We initially chose not to do that thinking Ubers/Taxis would be plentiful. That was not the case as the location is a ways out from Bordeaux. Would suggest you research local restaurants in advance to have handy. The “Chef at Home” is a great opportunity but because of health issues, we were not able to achieve that goal. Florence was a wonderful host!

This was a perfect place for our family gathering - the house was clean and well equipped for guests. We all commented on how quiet the house was - even though there were 10 of us! It is a beautiful property to explore - the view from the balcony was spectacular! Florence (the owner) lives nearby and was prompt to answer questions etc. Plenty of places nearby to pick up groceries etc. Highly recommend! Would definitely rebook in the future. Thanks Florence!

Excellent communication at all times with Florence

Beautiful Chateau between St Emilion and Bordeaux with lovely views of the vineyard . Very relaxing stay with my family watching sunsets from the terrace. Florence was available when we needed her and flexible with her time. The wines made by both Chateau Chelivette and Mathereau are reasonably priced and excellent with many varieties of white, rose, claret and red. We enjoyed the winery tour. We also enjoyed the chef's dinner. Recommended for families and groups of friends. Excellent stay.
