Location
Situated in the countryside between Gensac and Castillon-la-Bataille, Saint-Émilion is 20 mins away and Bordeaux less than an hour away by car. Gensac is a very pretty little town and there is a good selection of shops, a bank, bakery, doctor, medical centre, schools, chemist and tabac. There is also a small weekly fresh produce market and Gensac is also home to a couple of well-regarded restaurants.
It's just a couple of kilometres from the Dordogne river and there are also three leisure lakes nearby. If you're a keen tennis player, there are courts available and there is an active tennis club. If golf is more your thing, there are a couple of good courses nearby to choose from. It's an easy drive to the nearest train station with a direct line into central Bordeaux and Bergerac airport is an easy 40minute drive. As well as a lovely stretch of the river Dordogne to explore, other towns and villages in the local area that are worth investigating might be St-Foy-la-Grande, Pessac-sur-Dordogne and Sauveterre-de-Guyenne.
