We enjoyed our stay enormously in this most elegant and well appointed country house. Sasha and Jacques made us most welcome and we loved our bedroom with the four poster and large bathroom with two large basins and mirrors making getting ready to go out a shared experience. The area is terrific if you enjoy good wines and food and there are good local places to eat. We took Sasha’s recommendation and dined at La Table which was very good with large portions of good French country dishes. We hope to return and highly recommend for a longer stay.   

Fabulous stay 

What a wonderful place to spend a week exploring around the Bordeaux region. Sasha, your host, is absolutely delightful and willing to help with anything from places to see, restaurants, wonderful vineyards and more.
There is a fabulous garden and a charming swimming pool too.

An oasis of calm

We have had a wonderful stay in Domaine de la Freynelle , the stunning surroundings and relaxed atmosphere is what a holiday is all about. Bentley and Aston made us very welcome! Thank you Sacha.

We had a wonderful five-night stay at  La Freynelle, which is ideally situated between Bordeaux and St. Emilion. We were in the Polo suite which was really a flat (large bed- sitting room, kitchen/dining and bathroom) and was in a charming old building attached to the main house.  The main house is a beautiful 18th century chateau lovingly restored by our host, Sacha, and filled with interesting items from her travels.  It is surrounded by a large park-like  garden and pool which guests are invited to enjoy. Beyond the garden are vineyards, so it feels secluded and restful.  Sacha is a wonderful host, offered us dinner the night we arrived, booked various dinners for us the other nights in nearby villages, and gave us many sightseeing tips.  And our flat was equipped with a washing machine — greatly appreciated after two weeks in Paris. Her lovely Anna did a pile of ironing for us.  Highly recommended.

More than a B&B

Unfortunately this was our last night in France. How we would have loved to stay longer. Sacha and her husband made us feel extremely welcome at once. We were shown to the Polo Suite which is absolutely beautiful and furnished with wonderful eclectic items. The house and garden are gorgeous and how we would have loved to have a game of tennis and then relax by the pool. Hopefully we wil get another opportunity to visit and stay longer. An absolute gem! Thank you.

Beautiful home and welcoming hosts.

Spent two lovely nights in the Domaine de La Freynelle, where Sacha and her husband JC were wonderfully welcoming and hospitable.
We stayed as a treat amidst a camping break and to visit the gorgeous vineyards of St Emilion (our visit to Chateau Laniote was fab), and had the self-contained apartment with kitchenette, which was ideal. 
Both were welcoming on arrival and offered to make us a dinner reservation (a shame the restaurant we went for, L'Atmosphere, had none of the delightful service we enjoyed at Freynelle) and left us leaflets for the wine region.
The room was perfect, bed comfy, miniature chocolate by the bed, cold bottled water in the fridge, blissful shower (even after those we'd had camping, which were actually pretty good!)...and then we toured the grounds! The house itself is stunning, and the grounds (with pool, tennis court, boules, etc) were fabulous. We only wish we'd had more time there!
Unlike some, we really enjoyed the breakfast that Sacha provided. Simple, but so good with fresh coffee and croissants with every condiment I think you could want for.
Overall, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others, having been recommended Freynelle by friends, and are already considering a return visit.

Highly recommended for a stay/stopover in the region

A lovely place, which fits the bill if you're looking for a typical French country house and garden (including nice pool, petanque court, little garden 'rooms' to retreat to on a summer's day, etc), in the middle of the vineyards.  Very personalised attention from the hostess. Recommended.

(But do note - it is cash only. This wasn't prominently highlighted on Booking.com - although I did later see it when looking for it. We were lucky we had sufficient cash on us, as it is a fair drive to the nearest cash machine!)
