    Coup 2 Foudres - Tea cups!

    Coup 2 Foudres

    (1 review)

    I first read about this little bed and breakfast in a travel magazine article about the most unique…read morehotels in the world. When I saw that I could spend the night in a giant wine barrel, I had to do it! It's literally located in the middle of a Bordeaux vineyard. We were arriving very late at night and almost couldn't find the place. We started to get panicked but luckily found it. It's pitch black and down a gravel road, so be prepared. I'd suggest you arrive during daylight hours just to be safe because the stress really got to us! There are two barrels on the property, and we booked the "Cozy" room. It was absolutely adorable! It's a standalone giant barrel (for real) with a tiny little window. I'm super claustrophobic but the ceiling is super high so I never felt freaked out. The owner has put in so many nice touches too -- a fully stocked mini fridge, a bottle of the winery's wine, a tea box, plenty of seating areas, extra blankets -- anything you need is at your fingertips. Make sure you write in the guest register book in the room, I had a blast reading all of the previous guests' entries. See my photos for all the cool amenities. The shower was good (if small) and the room was simply charming. The views of the vineyard were incredible. Again, this hotel is in the middle of nowhere so enjoy the peace and quiet! In the morning we had a knock at the door. The owner had left a huge basket of fresh pastries, jams, and homemade yogurt for breakfast. We ate just about everything in that basket, it was so good! We never had any personal, face to face interaction with the owners either, but we did arrive very late and left the next morning. I wish we'd been able to stay more than one night because they'll give you a tour of their vineyard. It was such a private, gorgeous view that it would make the perfect romantic getaway for wine lovers. This isn't luxurious by any means but it's a cozy little bed and breakfast with some privacy. I hope the secret doesn't get out because I LOVED it here and can't wait to return.
