The Wine Cottage

My wife and I spent a very pleasant week at Chateau Feely. The accomodation (the Wine Cottage) was lovely and ideal for 2 people. The lady of the house, Caro, and her husband Sean, could not have been more welcoming and helpful, organising an 'apero' evening (very informal) with the other guests, a tour of the vinyard and a wine tasting, explaining their method of winemaking (organic) which was very informative and good fun as well. The countryside is beautiful and there's a lovely restaurant (Le Melange) in the local village Saussignac which is walking distance from the chateau. Highly recomm

We had a wonderful stay and loved the peace, the incredible view and the abundant wildlife. The cottage was very comfortable and well equipped. It was spacious for the two of us to relax for the day if we weren’t going out. Caro and Seán were great hosts and we loved learning about the vineyard and history of the place. The village has a friendly weekly gathering of food, wine and music - a great sense of community. We hope to return!

Loved it. Hosts were welcoming and very kind. Really interesting to be on an organic vineyard. Thank you.

Wonderful setting, so peaceful with great views of the surrounding vineyards. Made so welcome and very comfortable cottage. Caro is a marvellous host and her enthusiasm and knowledge of everything ‘wine’ is amazing! We very much enjoyed her wine tasting and learning about growing organic wine. We also enjoyed their wine, of course.

Such a great stay, great hosts, great views, great wine and a great gite. Would recommend this place every time.

The Wine Cottage is a lovely peaceful place to stay with beautiful views over the surrounding vineyard. The cottage itself is very comfortable, cool, and well equipped. We particularly enjoyed sitting out on the lightly shaded terrace which was very pleasant at all times of the day. We would recommend reading Caro’s excellent books which tell of the early struggles setting up the vineyard through to becoming leading lights of biodynamic wine production in France. Needless to say make sure you try their superb wines.

I found Chateau Feely through Caro's books, and had a lot of expectations on arrival - everything exceeded them! The views across the vineyards and valley are beautiful. The accommodation had everything we needed and was comfortable. The pool was great for dipping in. But best of all was the care and attention of the hosts to make sure we had a great authentic stay in the area. Recommendations for local restaurants, markets and bike rides were much appreciated. We ate and drank very well the whole week :-) Can't wait to go back!

We stayed in the Wine Cottage at Chateau Feely for a week in May. The cottage is lovely with stunning views across the vineyards and valley. The cottage is well equipped, comfortable with lovely decor and remarkably cool even though it was very hot outside. Although part of a working vineyard it felt secluded. Caro Feely made us very welcome and we felt at home there. It was interesting to learn about producing organic wine and to sample the lovely range of wines. A dip in the swimming pool at the end of a hot day was a refreshing experience. I would highly recommend and hope to visit again.

What a wonderful place to stay! A comfortable, well-equipped cottage with stunning views over the vines to the valley below. Caro, our host, was incredibly welcoming and friendly - with an infectious passion for winemaking (and her wines are SUPERB!)! I stayed here with my partner for 3 nights in late September 2021 and would thoroughly recommend (and we hope to return!). The perfect place for a magical escape!

We – my wife and I – spent a magical week in the Wine Cottage at Chateau Feely last July. The lodging is beautiful with everything you need and Madame Feely is a perfect host, always available and full of good suggestions about visiting the Bergerac. Very interesting the visit of the winery, particularly if you want to know about organic wine making (which is a totally different thing from the wine making I knew). A quiet and restful location we loved, good wines and the outstanding bergerienne food in the neighbourhood, we hope we can visit again soon.

A perfect place to immerse yourself in the world of biodynamic wines.

Having tasted and enjoyed Feely wines here at home, a visit to their website prompted us to book a week in the wine cottage. We were not disappointed. The beautifully appointed cottage is very well equipped and has far reaching views over the vines. There are good restaurants very close by and the Dordogne region is ideal for visiting Bergerac, Monbazillac, Saint-Émilion and the amazing Jardins de Marqueyssac. Sean and Caro are perfect hosts. Caro leads knowledgeable and informative wine tours and Soirées. Feely wines are second to none. A perfect holiday!

Another wonderful stay at the Wine Cottage, great accommodation and amazing views over the vineyard. Welcoming hosts, great breakfasts and delicious wines. Hope to return soon.

Stayed in the Wine Cottage and its just the loveliest place to stay,the cottage itself is fitted out to a very high standard, very comfortable and peaceful with amazing views.

We spent a week in the newly renovated Cottage, where we stayed first in 2010. It is extremely comfortable now, and well equipped. The views from the cottage are wonderful with vineyards all around. It was harvest time so lots of activity, with the chance to take part! Excellent wine tastings too. We love it here - out 6th visit. Thanks to Caro and Sean, Sophia and Ellie for having created such a marvellous place to spend a holiday, and for their warmth and friendship.

The Wine Cottage was exquisite. Clean, beautiful views, quiet, and private. It was recently remodeled and everything is new. Caro and the family are the ideal hosts, and I couldn't have enjoyed my visit more. I loved having a kitchen and washing machine too. I highly recommend the Wine Cottage.

We stayed in the wine cottage for a week with our 1 year old and it became a home from home except far more beautiful. The cottage is stunning with lots of room & 2 balconys for breakfast or sipping a glass of their delicious wine at sunset. The pool is refreshing after days out sightseeing & visiting the beautiful market towns close by. We made great friends with the cats, chickens & especially the lovely Dora. We had a fantastic wine tasting session with the very knowledgeable Ceciele. We learnt so much & went home with a new organic philosophy. We had an amazing trip & can't wait to return!

What a wonderful place to stay. The views and being very much a part of a working vineyard made our holiday. The wine cottage has everything that is needed and has that lovely rustic french feel that is so often missing in other gites. We loved our stay and are already starting to plan a return visit.

We spent a week in the wine cottage for our honeymoon. It was a lovely relaxing holiday, spent largely outdoors - the countryside is idyllic, even the half-hour cycle to and from Gardonne for groceries is gorgeous! The cottage is pretty and spacious - rustic and has everything you'll need. We had a bottle of sparkling wine on the house - very tasty! - and enjoyed the food at the restaurant in Saussignac. It's a lovely, remote, romantic getaway (especially remote without a car, but we liked that!). Thank you!

I so enjoyed my stay at Chateau Haut Garrigue. The views of the vineyard from the cottage were amazing. The cottage was spotless & very comfortable . Caroline Feely was most welcoming & very friendly The wines at Chateau Haut Garrigue are truly wonderful. A gift of a bottle of their rose wine was in the fridge as a gift - this was a lovely gesture. The small , pretty village of Saussignac is a 10 minute walk from the cottage. Saussignac has restaurant , a depot du pain, an epicerie & a post office . Ihope to return soon to the Wine Cottage .
