Le Château Réal

We just spent 3 weeks in France and Spain. and Chateau Real was the highlight of our trip. The Chateau is a beautiful old house that has been restored to its current modern state. Our room looked very modern as if it had been renovated in the last year or so. The grounds and the pool are so nice to relax in after a day of touring around Bordeaux. And Kelly & Elian could not have been nicer hosts. The breakfast was amazing every day. We had to leave early one day, and thought we would have to forgo breakfast, but Kelly let us know that the croissants were almost out of the oven if we could just stay a couple more minutes. They bake their own croissants. And they were delicious.

This really is a beautiful place to stay. Not only were the hosts very welcoming and attentive, but the quality of everything was exceptional. Breakfast was delicious with a mixture of cereal, yoghurt, pastries and some eggs. We only wish we’d booked in for a longer stay! We’ll definitely be booking again

Six of us stayed here for 3 days in May. What a great experience! Kelly was the consummate hostess. She arranged restaurant reservations, recommended wineries for us to visit. We really could not have asked for a better hostess. The propery is so lovely. Make sure to read the book about the renovation - such a labor of love! Breakfast every day was delicious - those croissants! The coffee! The fresh squeezed juice! One evening, after a long day of wine tasting, Kelly made us some charcuterie boards. They were delicious and she was able to accomodate the vegetarian which we really appreciated. Each of us loved our rooms. One couple stayed in the "Mister Real Suite" which was so lovely and had a great view of the vineyards. But, there were a lot of stairs to this room which was not necessarily a problem unless you have an issue with stairs (once you enter the room, there is a flight of stairs to get to the actual room and then a couple of stairs to get to the bedroom area). Each of us would love to stay here again!

Lovely quiet place. Nice restaurant nearby or drive to pauillac 10 minutes. Owners on site and very helpful. Lovely pool. Free parking across street. Also alcohol available for purchase. Town is small.

We stayed in a beautiful spacious corner room, enjoyed the great mixture of original and renovated interior and the most inviting garden-area with pool, deckchairs and nature intertwined. Jogging between the vines in early morning with scheduled breakfast afterwards made our day. Highly recommended
