La maison botanique

Rachel made us feel very welcome and had good suggestions. We went for a lovely walk along the Dordogne, we went to the river beach and we enjoyed our dinners in local outdoor restaurants. Castillon-la-Bataille is a nice little town with very few tourists. Rachel's house is beautiful and the breakfasts on the balcony tasty (nice bread!) and pleasant.

Beautiful tastefully decorated house in a quiet location close to bars/restaurants. Free parking outside the property. Absolutely fantastic host who had great recommendations for restaurants and sightseeing. The beautifully set out breakfast on the terrace overlooking the garden was delightful.

Nothing.

The host was very happy to assist in any way possible. Her knowledge of the area was first class.

Rachel, the host, was exceptional. Nothing was too much to ask - including advice, adaptors, extra hangers, even sunglasses!

Housekeeping wasn’t daily but that wasn’t a big deal. Some extra amenities eg shower cap would’ve been a nice to have.

calm and fresh air

full of character.

An historic house in an excellent location - a quiet street, close to the station and just a short walk to the centre of Castillon. Plenty of parking space close by and within easy reach of the vineyards. Our room was spacious and well equipped. Breakfast on the balcony was a delight, with fresh croissants and bread, home-made preserves, fruits, cereals, juice, yoghurt and a delicious cafetière of coffee. Rachel is a charming and interesting host, happy to tell us the history of her beautiful house and to introduce us to her secluded garden, filled with the plants she uses in her work as a herbalist.

Nothing! La Maison Botanique was fabulous!
