"We had a lovely, relaxing stay at Domaine Jean-Got. The hosts were very friendly, spoke good English, and the check-in smooth. The domaine is close to the river and the small town of Branne, well located to get to Saint Emilion and a few other nice villages. Most of all though we just enjoyed relaxing on site on the terrace and pool. We also loved the miniature donkeys! Just so you know when booking, the jacuzzi and sauna are not included and cost an extra €75 per session."

"This is a rustic, two bedroom cottage property about a 35 minute walk (uphill!) to St Emilion old town. Located in the the vineyards, it's fine if you have a bicycle or similar. It's only 5 mins by car but then you have parking to deal with in the town. It's on a slightly dusty track to don't arrive in heels or immaculate white clothing. Warmly welcomed by Hassan, his wife and daughter, I was shown the shared downstairs area and my room. They do not live on the property. No elevator obviously so hope your bag is light (mine wasn't!). Rooms are pleasant and have good air conditioning. Hassan offers wine for sale and Dinner is available if you want. It's a Moroccan themed dinner but I didn't try it myself. I was asked to change rooms when here when another guest arrived that needed two beds (Hassan had given me the room with multiple beds) which I wasn't very happy about to be honest but it was a relatively small inconvenience I suppose. Breakfast is available for 8 euros and it's OK but TBH pretty basic. Everything worked out fine for my two night stay. If I were to offer any suggestions it might be to clean and redecorate the downstairs area which feels a little cluttered (There's a drumset in the corner if you're so-inclined!!). Overall, I'd score it 6.75/10. It was fine as long as you're not expecting somewhere shiny and new feeling."
