    I couldn't think of anything

    Lily welcomed us very kindly and you can feel she has a heart to accomodate a B&B and pay attention to her guests. We had a nice room with good beds and a nice large bathroom. We could use the fridge in the veranda and had a lovely time in the beautiful large garden with swimming pool. Breakfast had everything we could wish for, good coffee included. Enough space to park the car. Would definitely like to stay here again!

    Is appartement is next to the national road, but with less trafic at night.

    The breakfast was good. We can use the whole accommodation with BBQ, dishes, microwave, pool equipment, garden, tea & coffee bar, WiFi, television. We had a great home base to discover the area around St Emilion and enjoy our quality time with family.

Lovely garden with pool where guests can sit. Cannot fault this lovely guest house, and thoroughly recommend to future guests.

    Our hire car was equipped with the latest in GPS navigation but failed to direct us correctly to the property. After several passes thru the near vicinity we turned on our phone and Google Maps led us to the door in an instant. This slight glitch was not the fault of the owners but seems a fairly common guest experience… and one that is easily resolved. Have your phone close at hand or download screen shots and directions from Google Maps before you travel.

    Lily and David are very welcoming hosts who instantly put their guests at ease with a smile and kind words. (In English.) Every need was met; every enquiry prompted thoughtful and helpful responses. Lily’s recommendations on where to shop and eat led us to dine at a small restaurant a short distance away where the food and wine were superb and the service was excellent. Our evening at Bucket’s auberge was one of the best we’ve had during our current trip to France. A real discovery thanks to our insightful hosts. Our room was large and comfortable; very clean and well maintained. Despite being on a major road, the property was quiet and free from traffic noise. Plenty of on-site parking made loading and unloading the car a breeze.

    A lovely country house, beautifully restored. Our room was spacious and very comfortable. As it was November, we didn’t use the garden and pool, but they too looked great for warmer weather. Above all, our hosts, Lily and David were charming, helpful and very welcoming. Breakfast was generous and varied…. all in all a fabulous stay.

    This is a lovely place to stay. A friendly welcome from Lily and David set the tone of our stay. The room was spacious with a beautiful en-suite and all spotlessly clean. The pool was lovely and a great place to cool off at the end of the day. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious with fresh croissants and bread, fresh fruit including figs from the garden and meat , cheese jam etc. Lily and David have thought of everything, kettle with tea making stuff in the room , including a cafetière and proper coffee, fresh milk in the fridge and cool bottles of water. Lily contacted us in advance and arranged dinner reservations at some lovely restaurants and a tour of a local chateau with wine tasting. They are superb hosts and I cannot fault the place at all, we will definitely return if we are in the area.
