Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We booked a vineyard tour on the website and traveled for over an hour on two buses from Bordeaux only to learn that my booking had been cancelled.
They sent an email (which went to my junk folder) but didn't try to call even though you provide a telephone number when you make the booking.
To make up for it, we were offered a walk around the gardens (value of €5) and then a tasting of two wines, which were very boring.

We thank you for taking the time to give us your opinion.
Indeed, that day we were unable to telephone you and that is why we only contacted you by email. We were short-staffed and unfortunately we were unable to welcome you for a visit. We are sorry for this experience. We would be delighted to offer you our guided tour on your next visit to the region. See you soon

We had a great visit to Saint Ahon Castle. It was well complete with the explanations of the history of the castle, part in the vineyards and finally in the cellar for all the stages of wine design. Our Guide was accurate, pleasant and very interesting! Finally, we were able to taste some wines in the sun on the terrace at the entrance. Thank you for this great time!

We had the wedding and ceremony of our dreams in Saint Ahon! The estate is magnificent and the room has a unique charm with the bay overlooking the barrel cellar. There are many options for venue arrangements, and most of the necessary equipment is available for rental on site. The team is warm, very available and determined to create the best experience for you, and they have a network of quality providers.

Found on a motorhome sites app and couldn't fault it. Lovely pitch overlooking the vines with use of a WC and water fill. A lovely walk with 1st class explanation panels about the region, chateau, vines and wine. Also a great welcome. Nice shop with local produce as well as their wines. On this occasion we didn't take advantage of the tasting but a Canadian couple there were enjoying, so we bought a couple including Sulphite free - unusual in quality wine.

We stayed at Château Saint-Ahon during 3 days for our professional seminar, and it was really great! The team enjoyed very much the guided tour in the vineyard, including wine degustation, the charming conference room where our training sessions and presentations took place, and the food which was provided for breakfast and lunch was delicious. Also, the hosts are super friendly, they gave us a warm welcome upon our arrival, and they've made sure we had all we needed throughout our stay. I recommend and would come back with my team without any hesitation!

Château St Ahon is run by a warm and caring family, all in a magnificent setting! This is why we chose it for our wedding.
The garden is very wooded and the reception room is on a human scale, in exposed stone with a view of the winery lit in the evening.
A big thank you to Alice who took care of us from the start and was also able to advise us on local partners that she knew personally (caterer, flowers, DJ, etc.).
A small family castle to discover without hesitation!

A nice place to bring the family for a walk and tastings. Clean and well put together, the self-tour was very informative.

We wanted to visit a vineyard whilst in the area but also wanted to keep our son entertained. The venue did both with a small walking trail that informed both child and adults and allowed us to wander through the grounds and past the vineyards. We were welcomed and the walk explained with welcoming staff who all spoke good English. We walked around the grounds answering questions about wine and winemaking from boards around the trail. We finished with a short tasting with grape juice for our son. Again with helpful, welcoming staff who spoke good english.
This is an activity that can be enjoyed at all ages and was informative and gave us a good introduction to the area and its wines.
