What Our Guests Say About Us...

For the past 4 years myself and a friend have engaged in a James May & Oz Clarke style wine tour of various wine regions of France and for the last 3 of those we've spent our final night at La Bellevue. Why do we return; the peaceful location? The charm, comfort and style of Annie's House? The wine tasting, conducted by a patient, knowledgeable & enthusiastic host? The fabulous food and plentiful wine, locally sourced and wonderfully cooked? Well yes of course, all of these things, but mostly because each year, with the warmth of their welcome and hospitality, Sarah-Jane & Gerald have made us feel like we’re visiting friends.

Wine tasting with Gerald is a lesson in how to apprecite good wines and a demonstration of how passionate he is about all aspects of wine making in the region. I have visited 3 years running and each time discover more about the region, the good years and the not so good years (equally important) and how previous years are developing with age. I can thoroughly recommend this true French experience and wonderful exhuberance of your host. Embrace the culture, the region and the wine and you will definitely get the most from your degustation! Mark Plummer, Somerset, UK Jun 10

It is evident both Sarah-Jane & Gérald care passionately about family, wine & traditional French values. For Wine Lovers take the wine tour with Gérald, it is truly eye opening and underpins why French wine is still the best in the world. Gérald, you truly get British humour & Sarah-Jane, you are an excellent host. Lisa & John Pirrie, UK Sep 10
