Clos Marcamps

What a beautiful find on the outskirts of Bordeaux. Clos Marcamps has been beautifully renovated. The attention to detail and craftsmanship is superb. Everything you require is in the room. No expense has been spared. Unfortunately we only stayed one night so didn’t get to use the swimming pool. We will definitely be back. Thank you for your hospitality.

Beautiful room and grounds. Helpful host. Enjoyed having the private spa outside our room. Good breakfast. A little hard to find if your using GPS. It takes you past the front entrance to the corner of nowhere. The gates are big and white and at the very beginning of the road. Sign is very small.

We spent 4 nights at this delightful place this week and loved it. The grounds are very peaceful and beautifully kept and buildings lovingly restored and maintained. We used the swimming pool a couple of times too and it was kept clean and at a comfortable temperature. A welcome addition especially in the very warm weather. Nothing was too much trouble for Jean-Phillipe or indeed the staff serving the delicious and varied breakfasts in lovely garden surroundings. He also spent a nice long time explaining the facilities available and giving great advice of where to visit (and where not to visit 😊) including best places to park. I’ve read the poor reviews of certain people who visited a week before us and can conclude that it must be the visitors who must be vindictive and clearly don’t know how to behave. Clos Marcamps is also placed well for visiting the local area such as Bordeaux, St Emilion, Blayes (citadel - not the town! sorry) and the Corniche, and Arcachon & Cap Ferret (by passenger ferry from Arcachon) which are particularly delightful. Also as a stop off for Spain. Merci beaucoup. Nous reviendrons. Paul et Kathryn xx
