Château Lamothe du Prince Noir
|
|
This fabulous Château is in the heart of the famous Bordelaise wineyards, midway from Bordeaux city and Saint-Émilion village. Tucked away in a rural environment at a village's gates, you just have to drive 20 mns into the heart of Bordeaux or from the International airport (40 mns). Still surrounded by its own spring fed moat, it sits with its three towers on a small natural rise overlooking the Dordogne Valley. Built in the 12th C., during the time Aquitaine was under English rule, then modified and updated during the 17th and 19th centuries, it is also reputed to be one of the « Black Prince's » (Edward of Woodstock, Prince of Wales) hunting lodge. This private château has been tastefully restored and decorated by the Bastide family to provide a delightful French home with a high level of service. Refinement and comfort pervade the bedrooms mostly ensuite. A Princely Gourmet breakfast is served. If you needed support for independent Wine touring, we will be happy to propose different possibilities. A very special spot for authentic History, Nature and Wine lovers...
