Rainy weekend, happy weekend for the curious!

Turtleneck & Shellfish

In this long autumn weekend, we thought of everything and everyone and we found something to help you have a great time, sometimes even without taking the car! Here is the program that we have concocted for you:

Saturday, anything goes! A village just for you in Guîtres. 

To start this first day we go to the Libournais, visit an old and impressive mill now transformed into a Book Village. Installed at the confluence of the Isle and the Dronne, the Book Village brings together a collection of more than 500 pieces of used books. It conceals many treasures: old toys, vinyl records, old engravings, postcards, pin's, cameras and other diverse and varied objects. Cleverly orchestrated in a space of 000 m5, it is a unique place that gives you the opportunity to see, read, touch and taste (catering area with products all from local production). For fans, Sunday November 000 will take place regional thriller day. 

Entrance 8 euros, free for children under 14.
Open from 10 a.m. to 18 p.m. Good plan: with your city ​​pass 72h, you benefit from a reduction (entry 8€  6,5 €)

Sunday, direction Biganos, for a cinema-taste! And it is more precisely for the projection of “Jacob and the Talking Dogs” at the Cultural Center of Biganos. The kids are going to love it! This is the story of Jacob and his cousin who, helped by dogs capable of talking (and singing), try to save the district of Riga in which they grew up: a funny and moving story. Before the film, you will attend a show by the BIP (Bordeaux Professional Improvisation) in which the children will be able to participate for their greatest pleasure, and to end the afternoon in style, a snack will be offered to you! To get there, we invite you to take the TER from Bordeaux to the “Gare de Facture Biganos” stop. Once at the station, take Rue de la Gare then turn right on Route des Lacs. Continue on Avenue de la Liberation to the roundabout and turn left on Rue Pierre de Coubertin.biganos

Monday is Château Clémentin at the gates of Bordeaux and by tram! 

Chateau Pape Clement owns one of the oldest wine estates in Bordeaux. The first harvests took place more than 760 years ago. Bertrand de Goth, owner of the place in the 1th century and future Pope Clement V, bequeathed its current name to it. It is to Pope Clement that we also owe many castles known as “Clementine castles”. On the program, visits and tastings, by reservation only, 30h42 with discovery of the vineyard, the cellars and the vat room. To get there from Bordeaux: take tram A towards Mérignac, / Alfred de Vigny stop. Then continue your journey by taking BUS XNUMX. Get off at the Pont de l'Orient stop, you have arrived.
Visit + tasting of 3 wines: 20 euros/person. Reservation required on 05 57 26 38 38.
