Wine tastings, private chefs, horse riding, local markets and quiet corners worth discovering. We advise, you book it yourself — directly with the people who run them, at their own rate.
Share your dates, your château or region, and what your group enjoys: wine, food, the outdoors, culture or simply rest.
We suggest experiences, local providers and places that suit your group and your estate, with honest tips on what is worth your time.
You contact and book the experiences directly with the providers, at their own price. No commission, no mark-up, no package.
A few of the things our guests love to add to their stay. Tell us where your château is and we will point you to good options nearby. You book them directly.
Cellar tastings with the winemaker, vineyard walks and bottles you will not find at home.
Private chefs, caterers, market mornings and cooking classes in your own château kitchen.
Horse riding, golf, cycling through the vineyards, sailing and kayaking.
Local history, art villages, festivals, spa and wellness, and long, slow afternoons.
Colourful weekly markets, medieval hilltop villages, antique fairs and the best local bakeries.
Forest and riverside walks, wild swimming, yoga, massage and spa days, and time to slow down in the French countryside.
We don’t sell or arrange experiences, and we don’t take a commission. You deal directly with the chef, the winemaker or the guide, agree what you want together and pay their own rate. Our role is simply to point you in the right direction.
Staying in a heritage estate helps keep it standing, and spending locally keeps the village around it alive.
That is why we like to recommend small producers, seasonal food and local people who live close to where you are staying.
Send us your dates, your château or region and what your group enjoys. We will come back with ideas and contacts, and you book them directly.
