Les Sources de Caudalie, Martillac
Sense of detail and service of a Palace combined with a warm and family atmosphere
Les Sources de Caudalie, located among the vineyards of Château Smith Haut Lafitte, a Graves great growth, was established in 1999. Between vineyards and forests, at only 20 minutes from Bordeaux centre, the architect Yves Collet created from scratch contemporary buildings from recycled local materials in tune with the surroundings.
A stay in the hotel, with its 40 rooms and 21 suites, is the gateway to exploring an attractive region with a strong personality. The six cottages also revolve around the region's rich, varied culture as reflected in paintings, antiques, and warm-coloured fabrics.
Each of the 40 rooms, named after aspects of our regional heritage, boasts a unique decor, featuring antiques, collectible furniture, and fine draperies. Most of them have a terrace or a balcony with a beautiful view on the Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte's vineyards or on the lake.
