The castle is in a beautiful spot. Close to the vineyards and Saint-Emilion. We were in France for 12 days and this was our favorite part. The Patio room is absolutely beautiful!
The chateau was beautiful, the grounds charming, the pool clean and inviting.
The treehouse was romantic and unique.
Service and staff excellent.

Not a great stay
I booked the suite for 1 night as it had what looked like a private garden area for my wife and I to sit and enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. The seats and general feel to the garden/patio area was dank and grubby. The seat cushions were wet which was surprising as it had been in the high 29s all day.
On arrival I could not find a dedicated reception area so had to call them on the telephone. The Hotels.com booking page said that checkin was from 4pm and we arrived around 6:30pm. It did not say on Hotels.com site that there wasn’t anybody from the hotel onsite after 8pm. We found this out as we were shown to our room. Once in our room, we were asked if we wanted breakfast which we asked if we could let them know once we had settled in. This is when we found out that she was leaving shortly. The host was fine but we were asked to leave the kitchen as we had found it and put our rubbish in the bins somewhere near the chateau. I have never been asked to contribute to the housekeeping on a hotels.com or any other booking site before. We complied with the request but couldn’t find the external bins in the morning so ended up driving round with our rubbish in the car until we found a public bin.
All in all, we probably wouldn’t return. The list of 10/10 reviews prompted me to leave a not so perfect account as I believe them to be misleading and built my expectations to high for the delivery of the experience.
During our stay at Château de Courtebotte, we opted for the Treehouse. The room had lovely views over the river and the gardens of the Château.
The manager was outstanding and super accomodating. She offered us some fresh fruits from the gardens and went out of her way to ensure we had a lovely stay.

Absolute Fabulous stay here! Fantastic host and most delicious breakfast and dinner. We really enjoyed the pool and comfortable quiet room too. Thank you so much for an amazing stay, we will be back!
Ayse is a very kind host. The Chateu has a very cozy living room and each room is a private house in an area surrounded by a lake. Very peaceful and quiet, great value for money.
We went for a wedding in another chateau nearby. The chateau is in a lovely place overlooking the Dordogne. It is a delightful place to stay. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was beautifully presented. I would stay again and look forward to it
We stayed in the tree house. Aishe is a wonderful host, so welcoming and gave us good advice for dinner. Packed pieces of cake for us when we left. The property is charming with a view on the Dordogne. Grounds are beautiful and maintained with love.
Strongly recommended.
Amazing, amazing place. Exceptionally well designed, comfortable beyond words, family friendly, quiet and peaceful. It felt like I was in my own yard playing with my children. Attentive hosts. We genuinely considered extending a day and skipping the next location on our tour.
We absolutely loved it! Charming people, lovely room, fantastic setting... It was a pampering end to our romantic journey through the Dordogne Valley, and the recommendation for the tour in/under the Saint-Emilion Cathedral was spot on. We would love to come back :) Thank you!
Outrageously amazing breakfast and treehouse stay. Other rooms looked very nice also. We had wet weather but the pool looked extremely inviting. The ground were immaculately kept and great fun for kids. Just a beautiful place and only 10 mins from St Emilion if you fancy a stop there.
Nice chateau best breakfast perfect service why 50 chatacters?

Amazing stay at Chateau Cortebotte.
Chateau Cortebotte was truly amazing. A very short drive to the historic wine city of Saint Emilion and many other chateau of the region. She does a Wednesday night dinner at the Chateau that we highly recommend as Isabelle is an amazing cook. We could have spent another week just hanging out and taking little adventures. Can't wait to return
An ideal location for visiting Saint Emilion and the local vineyards. We had a very comfortable and quite room, and an amazing breakfast! The Chateau has been renovated to a wonderful standard, with beautiful decor. Isabelle, the host, went above and beyond with helping to book a fantastic restaurant for us, storing our bicycles overnight, and offering us a room over-looking the river (an upgrade on what we had originally booked). A little gift of home-cooked French cakes when we left was a lovely touch. We’ll definitely be recommending Château de Courtebotte to friends and family.
