Chateau Les Peintures

This elegant château on a wine estate has just received a complete facelift and is once again opening its doors - for Oliver’s Travels' guests exclusively.  

Recently renovated by a talented architect, it is has been decorated and furnished with style and refinement and sits majestically in three hectares of beautiful parkland with a private heated swimming pool, three hole golf course, and petanque court amidst the estate’s vineyards.

Château Les Peintures is just over four kilometres from the small town of Coutras and not far from Libourne. It is not far from charming Saint-Émilion, UNESCO classified and where world class restaurants sit beside ancient ruins, as well as the fabulous city of Bordeaux, with its new ‘Cité du Vin’. The area is abundant with world renowned vineyards, whilst the Bassin d'Arcachon, la Dune du Pilat and Lège-Cap-Ferret are all just over an hour-and-a-half away.

Château Les Peintures is ideal for friends or families travelling together who appreciate beautiful surroundings and are looking for a quiet, peaceful vacation with easy access to the area’s major attractions and towns.

Nestled amidst the world-famous vineyards of the Aquitaine region, Chateau Les Peintures is superbly positioned a short drive from the lively market town of Libourne and the world heritage site of Saint-Emilion, both offering a vast variety of restaurants ranging from the traditional brasseries to high-end gourmet Michelin restaurants.

Saint Emilion is an ideal spot for either a relaxing stroll, or to take a deeper look into the town’s history: a medieval town with plenty of historical monuments, museums and galleries.

The cosmopolitan and elegant city of Bordeaux with its new Cité du Vin, stunning 18th Century mansion houses, wide boulevards lined with boutique is also a must see.

Sports enthusiasts will be spoilt for choice with countless activities nearby, including biking, tennis, horse riding, golf, fishing and watersports. 

Furthermore, some of the most spectacular sandy beaches and glamourous seaside towns of the Atlantic Coast are also within easy reach: Dune du Pilat (Europe‘s highest sand dune with truly breathtaking views!), the fascinating Bay of Arcachon and chic Cap Ferret, to name just a few. 

Coutras, a small, traditional village with all basic amenities is located just 4kms away from the Chateau.
