Description The Valley of Sunshine: Saint-Christoly-Médoc

Set within extensive grounds, this century-old chateau has been immaculately restored by its committed owner. Out back, a raised terrace makes the most of the uninterrupted vineyard vistas, while the pool is perfect for topping up your tan. You won’t be short of space inside, either – there are four floors to explore here. And when it comes to stocking up on essentials, the Gironde estuary town of Saint-Christoly-Médoc is nearby, along with some of the area’s best-known winemaking chateaux.
