Manoir Caubeyran : Located in ancient Gascony, between the two great southern cities of Bordeaux and Toulouse. |

The Gironde forms part of Aquitaine, in south west France. It is famous worldwide for its wine, and for its beautiful Atlantic coastline. The weather is fantastic and the region enjoys almost as much sunshine as the Côte d'Azur. The summers are long and hot and the winters are mild. You can usually still have lunch outside in early November, and be back at your garden table in February, when there are often some lovely warm days! The main city is Bordeaux, bustling and cosmopolitan, with stunning architecture, excellent designer shops and a wide and varied nightlife. Visit its restaurants, and sample a glass or two of celebrated Bordeaux wine! By contrast, away from the bright lights, Gironde is an area of beautiful old villages, many overlooking the landscape of miles and miles of vineyards. With famous villages such as St Emilion, and areas such as the Medoc, Sauternes, Graves, and Entre-Deux-Mers to explore, it has been described as “like driving through a wine list”. Gironde is also home to the coastal resorts of Biscarrosse, Lacanau, and Arcachon, where the Atlantic waves allow for excellent surfing. Manoir Caubeyran is located central to the wine appellations of Sauternes and Graves in the Gironde, and Cocumont in the Lot-et-Garonne.
