Profitez Panoramas, piscine et Paradise! Nr St Emilion, à côté de l'ancienne abbaye

This property has lots of character. The views are glorious especially the afternoon sunsets. The property was well catered for. We prefered this proximaty to St Emillion, in a quiter rural village. However it is just a quick drive and you are able to enjoy all the wonderful restaurants and wine estate for which St Emillion is famous for. Perfect for a family or family & friends for a relaxed holiday.

The house had lots of character and beautiful views from the top of the hill. It's right next to an old church which is worth visiting, but fair warning- the bells go off very loudly every morning at 7am and periodically throughou the day which wasn't super fun to discover. The village is full of charm and close to the larger Saint Emillion and Castillon, and there's a big supermarket nearby. We enjoyed the proximity to Lac de la Cadie which is great for swimming and picnics and only 3 euros for entry. The rooms at the house were spacious and the beds very comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped and the outdoor area was cosy and perfect for dinners. The swimming pool was enjoyable and the pool robot cleaner was a nice touch. It offers lots of privacy and space, and overall was a great place to relax, overlooking all the vineyards and chateaux. We were pleased to find that there were automatic hand sanitising dispensers provided as well. Only minor drawback was the amount of cowbebs and insects in the house when we arrived- the house was generally clean but hadn't been dusted probably since the last guests stayed. We recommend bringing plug ins or citronella candles to help ward off the mosquitoes and critters!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Pujols and our stay at the Old Schoolhouse. The westward evening views over the bucolic countryside to the sunsets were truly divine. On those few evenings when the weather did not allow us to enjoy the garden, we found cozy solace from the wood burning stove in the living room, accompanied by a glass (or two) of the local wine. Laurence and his onsite team were great! Highly recommend.

Our family lives all over the world so each year we meet up for our annual get together... this year in the beautiful surroundings of The Old School House. A quaint, idyllic setting like something out of a provincial movie, we had a truly fantastic time in this unique property (with views of surrounding vineyards and sunflower fields)!! Bike rides, wine tasting, canoeing, peaceful walks and lots of food were among the activities we enjoyed. Would recommend!

We've just returned from a stay here in Pujols, and really enjoyed this property. It has plenty of space for up to 10 people - would be ideal for a couple of families holidaying together. There were 6 of us and we wanted 4 bedrooms and there was ample space here. Parking was very easy outside the property (car absolutely essential), and easy to access with very good communication from the owner. It had everything we needed for our stay, beds were clean and comfortable, good sized kitchen. Yes, it is next to the Abbey, which means that you have stunning views but also that you are woken at 7am with the ringing of the bells (didn't bother us, but you do need to be aware that they ring every hour up to about 10pm). The pool was excellent, a good size - a bit cold for me, but the kids were hardy and used it every day, even though the May weather was very changeable and we had some impressive thunderstorms. The village is very, very quiet- has a good shop and local restaurant but only open during the day mon-fri. Pujols is a good base for exploring the region, but you do need to get out and about if the weather is dodgy. We explored St Emilion, Bordeaux, Bergerac, Eymet and visited a couple of Chateau's (Chateau de Bridoire was a favourite of the kids). All we would have liked would have been more sunshine - but hey, you can't guarantee that in May.

The Old School House is a beautiful house in a charming village (we loved getting Fresh bread daily and eating in Sophie's) the house has a lovely feel with extremely comfortable beds, a beautiful swimming pool and stunning views from its elevated position. We definitely plan to return! (Also owner extremely helpful and friendly providing lots of useful information)

We wanted a relaxing base for a familly wedding, we got that and so much more! The house easilly accomodated the 9 of us and while the description could not be faulted, we also benefitted from the 2 brand new bathrooms which are a great addition. Arranging it all with Laurence was a breeze, he even accomodated us wanting to extend our stay by an extra day. Bread, cheese and a chilled bottle of wine were a lovely welcoming touch and much appreciated. Pujols is a lovely little village with some stunning views. The bells from the church next door provide the wake up call (7am), time for a short walk up the hill to pick up bread and croissants. The bells chime throughout the day ( no need for a watch!) but you quickly get used to them and they add to the charm. Getting everyone going before the heat of the day is also no bad thing! Lunch at Chez Sylvie is a must (so good we did it 3 times!), with a short stroll back down the hill and an afternoon next to the pool, the perfect lazy day! You need a car to explore the area but the roads are quiet and the supermarket only 10 minutes away. We got to see some of the area as part of the wedding celebrations, wine tasting in St Emillion and caneoing on the Dordogne, all just a short drive away. It is a lovely area and we want to come back and explore more. The Old School House is a perfect base and we would certainly stay there again.

we stayed here for a week in August and it was a lovely experience for all of us - peaceful and relaxing. The house and courtyard have been beautifully restored and are tasteful and comfortable spaces to spend time in. We were reluctant to move from there and when we did we didn't venture too far but highly recommend Chez Sylvie in the village for lunch and the local lake for a change of scene and a swim. Down the hill is La Poudette where we had two of the most stunning meals, particularly lunch in the garden - the hostess, Sophie (I think), is friendly and helpful and the food is superb. Back to the house: Laurence is so easy to deal with and patient with all enquiries. Some guests have mentioned the abbey bells and we would like it on record that they are a wonderful, mellow and atmospheric aural backdrop to a very special place. It wouldn't be the same without the bells!! Thank you Laurence, we hope to return soon.
