Perfect!
We loved Manu's place and fell in love with Bourdeaux. It was a gorgeous surprise - so much history and so many beautiful buildings. Manu met us and was very helpful, friendly and generous. The apartment was clean, modern, stylish and filled with natural sunlight with some lovely touches. The living area was spacious and comfortable and had two gorgeous shuttered windows overlooking rooftops and a dove cote. The perfect French scene!
The Chartron area is fantastic, a historic undiscovered hidden gem with lots of little streets to investigate and some great little cafes and restaurants- including just a few meters away. The area also has lots of antiques shops and close to the apartment is a fantastic boulangerie and wine shop. There is also a tram stop within a 5 minute walk that takes you into the centre of Bordeaux and similar in opposite direction to the Cite du Vin museum which I would highly recommend visiting as well as the School of Vin in the centre of the city (great local wines at affordable prices!). You can walk into the centre of Bordeaux too ... and there is a historic trail you can follow. I will be definitely recommending Manu's place to friends.
