About the area

Bordeaux

Average weather

France’s sixth largest city, and the world’s largest urban World Heritage Site, Bordeaux is a perfect cocktail of rural charm and city suave. This UNESCO-proclaimed region is rich in art museums, magnificent gothic architecture and world-renowned wines, matched beautifully with authentic riverside villages and grand, elegant chateaux. The River Garonne and its bankside guinguettes are never too far away from your villa, offering the perfect opportunity for an afternoon stroll, jog or cycle along the water’s edge. Scattered with sun-soaked vineyards, this fine-wine capital prides itself on its centuries-perfected viticulture, and also boasts an exceptional dining scene.
