Just 30 kilometers from Bordeaux, Château Prieuré Marquet seems to emerge between vineyards and forest, at the end of a long driveway lined with olive trees. This XVᵉ century Carthusian monastery, transformed into a confidential guest house by owner Bernard Canonne, cultivates an art of luxury as discreet as it is refined. Its six unique rooms blend period furnishings and contemporary design with panache. While the two heated swimming pools, spa, restaurant and majestic lounges invite contemplation, the experience extends well beyond the walls: rides in a Rolls-Royce or vintage Jeep, tastings of house wines and escapes to the surrounding wine villages.
