Welcome to Château de Gurat. We are dedicated to providing a civilised sanctuary for families seeking a truly restorative holiday in the South West of France. Our 15th-century estate is designed to offer children 14 acres of freedom while ensuring parents can finally step back and unwind. We created the Château de Gurat experience to be the holiday we always looked for: a place where safety and child-friendly facilities are a given, but the setting remains elegant and authentically French. Whether it is a first trip abroad with a toddler or a multi-generational holiday, we ensure every stay is effortless.

The Château de Gurat Experience Set within rolling countryside, our six individual gîtes feature thick stone walls and original oak beams, providing naturally cool havens for restful nights. We focus on the details that make a difference: Freedom for Children: With meadows and woodland to explore safely, our play area and the "Bergerie" play barn are where lifelong "summer gangs" are formed. Safety & Peace: Our heated swimming pools and toddler pool are fully gated. Most cottages are situated within monitor range of the communal terraces, so you can enjoy a quiet glass of wine while the children sleep soundly nearby. Effortless Living: From pre-prepared meal deliveries to weekly wine tastings and wood-fired pizza nights, we take the work out of your holiday. The Location Located on the edge of Gurat village, we are perfectly positioned between the hilltop town of Villebois-Lavalette and the river beaches of Aubeterre-sur-Dronne. It is a scenic, peaceful location and the perfect base for exploring the vineyards and markets of the Charente. For more details, simply search for "Château de Gurat" online.
