The breakfast is generous and something to look forward to every morning. The sorrounding restaurants offer great dining with... More

My friend and I had a wonderful stay at Villa St. Simon. Les, Clarissa and Julien were extremely helpful in organising out stay and all the staff made us feel very welcome. The Villa is very comfortable, - full of charm. There was a shared kitchen, available for use. The Villa was very convenient to the Blaye Citadel, restaurants, bakeries,... More

Having stayed at Villa St Simon 3 years prior I knew we would be welcomed back with open arms! Les and Clarissa made our 4 night Christmas holiday most enjoyable, joining in our fesitivities and opening up their home like we were family which is what is needed at Christmas when you are a long way from home! All of... More

We stayed for two nights at the Villa St Simon in November (the winter wine package is fantastic value), and echo everyone else in that we wish we could have stayed longer. Clarissa and Les were fantastic hosts, extremely accommodating, friendly and knowledgeable. We felt like welcome guests in their family home, such a nice feeling after several weeks of... More

We stayed for 2 nights of our recent trip and wish we could have stayed more! Clarissa was ever the most gracious hostess. The room was spacious, the town quaint and very good central location for day trips through wine-country. Our tour to Ch. Rousselle with Julian was a lot of fun and worth the day. St. Emilion is an... More

A wonderful, charming B&B. Well situated for access to St Emilion, Bordeaux and Medoc. Just 100 metres away is the ferry across the Gironde for convenient access to the wineries north of Bordeaux. Walking distance to the Citadel in Blaye and several good restaurants. Our room was spacious and comfortable, although the bathroom, like most French bathrooms, was a bit... More

We stayed here on a relative's recommendation. All hosts (Clarrisa, Julien and Les) are very welcoming. The B & B is well located near the citadel in Blaye and has free parking out the front. We had the room on the top floor which was comfortable and spacious. A kitchen, DVDs, books and free wifi are available for guests to... More

old building, crammed with "stuff" which you can spend hours looking at. Three interesting characters full of information. Les's debunking evening was both informative and entertaining. Good value held in a gorgeous gallery. Julian can recite the history of the 2CV like no-one else. Clarissa is both guest-supporting and an artist of talent. Rooms as one would expect in an... More

We have had two short stays at Villa St. Simon - the second time to pick up wine we had bought as a result of the first visit! There's a warm welcome and relaxed atmosphere. Rooms are fairly basic but that's part of the charm. The owner is a wine enthusiast (to put it mildly) and very generous with tastings... More
