Chateau du
Parc
Entre
Deux Mers - S.W.France

Within
the sound of the bells from the Abbey of Saint-Ferme, completely surrounded
in vineyards and wonderful countryside, you will find Château du
Parc, once a residence for priests. The Château spreads its wings
out from a central 18th century, typically Bordeaux style and smoothly
finishes off with two beautiful towers. The attention to detail is superb,
retaining all the original features such as the stone and marble fireplaces,
oak beams, wooden floors, and the original Gironde tiles. The decor is
also in the style in which one would expect in this elegant property, cosy
bedrooms decorated in a romantic style with delicately matched fabrics,
drapes adorning the beds and window, and wonderful old designed en suite
bathrooms. All this is there to make you feel as welcome as possible.
Château
du Parc sits on its own in nine hectares of beautiful landscape gardens
with fishponds, trimmed hedges, trees and shrubs. Bordeaux is approx. 1
hr from the coastal town of Arcachon famous for the sand dunes approx.
2hrs. The famous vineyards of St. Emilion are 45 mins. Restaurants to sample
local cuisine are within easy access, and for the wine connoisseur, vineyards
are in abundance. There is also an excellent choice of 18 hole golf courses
all within easy reach of the Château.
