Quiet life at Domaine du Fontenay
Yesterday...The house in which you will be staying was built around 1840 by the priest Etienne Dubost. It was originally used as stables and in 1869, it was converted into the vineyard workers' house (it was customary until very recently for landowners to house their employees). In 2002, it started its third career as a B&B.

Today...The Hawkins family has lived here since 1991 . The Hawkins family enjoying the same view, almost unchanged,
