STORES / MARKETS / RESTAURANTS / WINE TASTINGS
Bordeaux (30 min)
To describe Bordeaux in a few words is difficult. For us, this city was one of the reasons to move here. It is sparkling with a multitude of beautiful places and in full transformation.

Saint-Émilion (20 min)
This small medieval town welcomes thousands of tourists every year who stroll through the picturesque streets. Even if you don't like to walk through the touristy streets, it is worth it for its monolithic church, its impressive view and the ancient architecture.
The Castles
In the vicinity of La CLOCHETTE, you will find many Châteaux, which impress with their appearance, their wines and their know-how. The closest to us are for example: Mallier Vignerons with its biodynamic wine and its nice "guinguette" (where you can drink a wine and have a snack from May-September), the Château de la Rivière with its impressive cellars, the Vignoble Ponty and its committed winemaker, the Château de la Dauphine. Don't forget our friends at Château Mazeris, which is well worth a visit during a walk in the hills of Fronsac.
Ocean
Atlantic (about 1 hour and 15 minutes)
At about 1 hour drive you reach the Ocean and the bassin d’Arcachon. All along the coast there are different spots like Cap Ferret which is called the Saint Tropez of the Atlantic coast with Arcachon and its villas from the 19ᵉ century and don't forget Lacanau Océan, the surfers spot...(HOUSE)
Pilat Dune (about 1 hour and 20 minutes)
The Dune of Pilat is one of France’s designated protected sites. Standing 110 meters high, 600 meters wide, and 3 km long, Europe’s tallest dune offers a striking contrast against the forest, the sand, and the ocean. But did you know that this natural landmark is constantly changing? Driven by the wind, it shifts 1 to 5 meters toward the forest.
