Chateau des Tourelles

selected by chateau bee

Chateau des Tourelles, a picturesque petit chateau, is the ideal venue for an intimate wedding or elopement in the Bordeaux region, specifically in the prestigious wine-rich Medoc area. It is nestled alongside the peaceful waters of the Gironde Estuary in the charming port village of Saint-Christoly-Médoc.

Tastefully renovated by designer Heidi Middleton, the home has been the feature of many magazine articles and reviews and offers a dreamy French countryside retreat.

Imagine exchanging your wedding vows in the flower-filled garden or, for a touch of tradition, consider the nearby 12th-century village church.

For your reception, picture a magical outdoor dinner beneath a canopy of twinkling fairy lights.

The day after your wedding, invite everyone back for a scrumptious French brunch and a refreshing dip in the pool.

The estate comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests in 5 inviting rooms. There are also plenty of other lodging options in close vicinity.

And here’s the cherry on the top: the rental of this petit chateau can be coupled with comprehensive luxury wedding planning and concierge services, ensuring support from day 1 to craft not just an extraordinary wedding but also an immersive multi-day experience for you and your guests.

Things to do near the Chateau:

Besides unwinding by the pool and exploring the charming villages along the estuary on foot or by bike, you’ll have the opportunity to discover the Gironde area right from the chateau, with wine tours, tastings, and even French cooking classes. Don’t miss the local “gourmand” market on Wednesday evenings, complete with a musical ambiance throughout. For an extra special wedding touch, you could consider a hot air balloon ride or renting a vintage car to explore the surrounding vineyards.

Outdoor enthusiasts will relish the proximity to the sea, especially if you’re keen surfers as some of the best French waves of Lacanau and Hourtin are right on its doorstep.

And if you’re yearning for city life, the cultural city of Bordeaux is just a 1 hour and 15-minute drive away from the venue.
