Staying in this château at Saint-Sulpice-et-Cameyrac
This is a private rental rather than a hotel: the listing title offers “privatization” of the château for up to 15 travellers, which means you have the whole property to yourselves. Expedia calls it a château from the 14th century, but it does not give the name of the building, and no Wikipedia article about it was found, so this page sticks to what the listing says and to the village around it. There is no reception; the listing mentions a concierge service and housekeeping on request.
The equipment is that of a large holiday home. Expedia lists seven bathrooms with baths or showers, a whirlpool and a private pool, a fireplace, air conditioning and central heating, and a living room with a separate dining area. The kitchen has a hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, ice maker, toaster and kettle, with an island, cookware, crockery and cutlery, and even spices. There are a desk, a television, a tumble dryer, an iron and ironing board, and free Wi-Fi in all rooms.
Extras include books and games, laundry facilities and breakfast available for an extra charge. Parking is available on site, and a single dog or cat weighing up to 10 kg is welcome. Smoking is not allowed. The upper floors can be reached only by stairs, so guests with reduced mobility should contact the property through the booking confirmation.

The history around the château: Saint-Sulpice-et-Cameyrac
c. 1090 – According to local research, the first church of Saint-Sulpice, today’s Saint-Roch, is built; its apse and choir date from the 11th century.
12th–13th centuries – The Romanesque church takes shape; its three-level west façade dates from the 13th century.
1165 – The church of Cameyrac is first recorded among the possessions of the abbey of Sainte-Croix in Bordeaux.
Early 14th century – Historians estimate that the present church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste at Cameyrac may have been built; the period matches the age claimed for the château in the listing.
1651 and 1655 – Two chapels are added to the church of Cameyrac, giving it the shape of a Latin cross.
c. 1780 – The Château Beauval is built for a local lord; it is today a wine estate.
1925 – The church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste at Cameyrac is listed as a historic monument.
The commune was once made up of two villages, Saint-Sulpice and Cameyrac, separated by an almost uninhabited heath. It lies in the Entre-deux-Mers, between the Garonne and the Dordogne, on a plateau that slopes north towards the Padouen marshes. Besides the churches, local heritage includes several manor houses such as the fortified Château Badines of the late 16th century. The facts on this page about the village come from Wikipedia; the listing itself gives no history of the château.
