All are air conditioned and have a private bathroom, telephone, television, mini-bar, and safe box. There is a fitness centre, a heated outdoor swimming pool and two restaurants.

Chateau Grand Barrail – St Emilion

Grand Barrail Château Resort & Spa is a haven of wellness and refinement surrounded by Saint-Emilion’s vineyards. It is a sympathetically restored and highly luxurious 19th-century château. Recently reborn as an ‘Island of Relaxation’, Grand Barrail consists of four fine properties: the imaginative and classic château itself; La Residence and La Maison du Vignoble with country estate rooms and grand vistas; and La Maison du Bien-Etre for romantic views of châteaux and vineyards.

The full-service spa, with Ligne St. Barth cosmetics, will refresh and relax body and mind. The food and wine is a gastronomic delight, stylishly served in magnificent dining rooms with stained-glass windows.

Château Cordeillan-Bages – Pauillac

You will be enchanted by the elegant exterior of this 17th-century chateau. Its bright, tastefully decorated rooms and its lounges, adorned with bouquets and old paintings, are also a feast for the eyes. Surrounded by the most prestigious wine-growing châteaux in the world, the hotel boasts 28 truly charming rooms.

The creative cuisine of Thierry Marx is reflected in the original flavours of the best Médoc products and the pursuit of perfect harmony with the best Bordeaux grand crus. His 2 star Michelin restaurant is probably the finest in the region and his overall attention to detail makes every meal at Cordeillan-Bages an unforgettable experience.
