La région ne manque pas de points d’intérêt culturels et touristiques majeurs. Vos hôtes Virginie et Jean-Philippe vous aideront à planifier vos visites sur le territoire bordelais.
Pair-Non Pair Cave
The famous Pair-Non-Pair cave located in the commune of Prignac-et-Marcamps is one of the most remarkable prehistoric decorated caves belonging to the ancient Upper Paleolithic period. Its engraved bestiary, dating back more than 30,000 years, presents horses, ibexes, deer, mammoths and an exceptional figuration of a megaceros. Reservations are essential in high season.
Bourg-sur-Gironde and the vineyards
The Côtes-de-Bourg vineyard has been present in our land since Roman times. On the banks of the Gironde Estuary, in a hilly area known as the “Little Switzerland of Gironde”, how can you resist its charm and the appeal of its landscapes and privileged climate? At its heart, the small medieval village of Bourg-sur-Gironde and its numerous second-hand dealers.
Citadelle of Blaye
A quarter of an hour from Clos Marcamps, the Citadel of Blaye is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Marked by the History of France and by illustrious people, it invites you to discover magnificent panoramas over the largest estuary in Europe, the Gironde. It has kept intact the defence system put in place by Vauban with its 1.5 km of ramparts, its gates and its underground passages, as well as the buildings necessary for the proper functioning of a garrison. The Citadel promises a pleasant stroll through its narrow streets to meet the craftsmen, restaurateurs and shopkeepers.
Saint-Emilion
The pretty village of Saint-Emilion, known worldwide for its vineyards listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, is rich in historical architecture and varied wine-growing landscapes. Only half an hour’s drive from Clos Marcamps, Saint-Emilion is a must-see during your stay.
Bordeaux
Only half an hour’s drive from Clos Marcamps, the city of Bordeaux, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is an essential visit: Place de la Bourse and its water mirror, Saint-André cathedral, Capucins market, Sainte-Catherine shopping street, Cité du Vin…
Arcachon Bay
An emblematic site of the South-West, the Bay of Arcachon, an hour’s drive from Clos Marcamps, is renowned for its landscape, which is ideal for walks along the ocean, its sandy beaches, the lively town of Arcachon, the Dune du Pilat… A major centre of seaside tourism in Gironde, the Bay of Arcachon has managed to preserve its natural heritage, which has been partly integrated into the Landes de Gascogne Regional Nature Park.
