A Little About Us

Château de Sanse is a charming 18th-century château, lovingly restored and run by Sandra and Joris, a husband-and-wife team raising their two children in the peaceful vineyards of Sainte-Radegonde. What began as a passion for hospitality and countryside living has grown into a warm, family-run haven where guests are welcomed like old friends.

Set among 10 hectares of private land, surrounded by rolling hills, forests, and vines, the château offers a beautifully relaxed setting — the perfect blend of rural tranquillity and understated French elegance. Tucked between Saint-Émilion and Bergerac, it feels wonderfully secluded yet remains easily accessible for guests travelling from near or far. And yes… there’s even space to land a helicopter.

Exchange vows outdoors under the trees, dine by candlelight in the Courtyard, and dance beneath the stars until 2 a.m.

For those dreaming of a traditional ceremony, there are three beautiful local churches just a few minutes away in Pujols, Gensac, and the surrounding villages — or you can hold your ceremony right here in the château grounds.

For many years, Château de Sanse has been the heart of family life for Sandra and Joris, who have lovingly transformed it into a warm, elegant retreat for their guests. Recently renovated with care, the château blends historic charm with relaxed French style — luxurious yet unpretentious, just as a countryside home should feel.

With 16 beautifully appointed ensuite bedrooms, inviting living spaces, a pool overlooking the valley, generous terraces for long, lazy meals, and peaceful corners to unwind, it’s a private sanctuary surrounded by vineyards and open countryside. Far removed from the rush of nearby towns, the château offers the perfect place to gather, celebrate, and simply breathe.
