La Grivette is a stunning 300-year-old stone house, situated outside the tiny village of Sainte Colombe, yet a few kilometres from the ancient fortress towns of Duras and Monségur. The property is fully restored, secluded and private, with lovely views over plum orchards, vineyards, farms, and a historic Roman church.
It's the perfect base to enjoy the best of the French Aquitaine. Tour the world-famous wines and chateaux of St. Emilion, Sauternes, and Monbazillac. Plan day trips to the Atlantic coast beaches, the Dordogne, or Pyrenees. Nearby villages have daily open-air markets and night festivals with music, local food, and wine. The international airports of Bordeaux and Bergerac are less than an hour's drive.
