We're a friendly, happy bunch here at Maison Metcalf and thoroughly enjoy meeting people from all over the world. More importantly, our aim is to make your stay with us as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. After all, we would like to see all our guests return and to recommend us to their friends and family!

Home away from home and situated at the crossing of the four regions; Dordogne, Charente, Charente Maritime & Gironde means Maison Metcalf is the perfect place from which to explore the wonderful diversity of these areas. Travel north to visit Cognac or Brantôme, south to Bordeaux and Saint Emilion, go west to the Blaye/Médoc area or head east to Périgueux and Bergerac. We guarantee you will discover something new and exciting in every direction. The house is known as the "grande dame" of the area, with wide hallways, high oak beamed ceilings, a great new lounge and a large games room with table tennis, foosball and darts, it is wonderfully spacious. We have various bedroom options from which to choose. Let us know what you need. The lounge has French/English TV, dvds, jigsaws and books for young and old. In the dining room is a small fridge, toaster, coffee & tea making facilities and fruit for guests to enjoy whenever they feel like it. Enjoy the garden and pool during summer while basking in the sunshine.

Maison Metcalf nestles in a quiet little commune with cows and sheep around us, yet near enough to our local village so as not to feel isolated. Not a hill in sight means walking and cycling are easy and enjoyable for those who are less fit - like us. We are surrounded by wine, cognac and pineau vines and highly recommend a visit to any of the chateaux or producers in the area. If a "dry" day is what you are after visit one of the many breathtaking abbeys, cathedrals and churches in surrounding villages and towns. Whatever the plan is make sure to stop for a lengthy lunch at any of the great restaurants in our area.
