Near Bergerac Armelle and Jean-Marie Huré have converted a cottage on their wine estate into a self-catering Bergerac vineyard gite at Chateau Tourmentine.
The Chateau is at Monestier(24 Dordogne, Nouvelle Aquitaine). The gîte is in an independent cottage on the farm and has 5 bedrooms sleeping up to 12 people and 5 bathrooms, the property is well-equipped with a terrace and an outdoor swimming pool and a barbecue!
Monestier is a small quiet wine village, which is also home to our favourite Bergerac producer – Guy Cuisset at the organic Chateau Grinou, about 12 miles/20 kms) southwest of Bergerac. In nearby Saussignac you will also find Chateau Feely, another organic vineyard run by an Irish/South African couple who offer accommodation, wine treks etc. The wines of the Cotes de Duras, Monbazillac and Pecharmant are all within a 30 minute drive, whilst a day trip to Saint Emilion is well worth the slightly longer drive (30 miles/47 kms).
for more info and to check availability at this Bergerac vineyard gite see Chateau Tourmentine.
