“Friendly and helpful staff. It was a delightful and peaceful stay. I thoroughly recommend.”
The location was expansive with an interesting history. We were made very welcome despite arriving early. We had dinner at short notice which was very good. The Chateau was quiet and peaceful.

“Simply great!”
This was our 3rd stay in 5 years (missing 2 years due to Covid!) & in 2019, we were Chris and Barbara’s very first guests since they took the property over. The chateau, the swimming pool, the grounds and the location all make for a lovely stay, enhanced by Chris and Barbara’s friendly approach to everything. We’ll be back!

“relaxing time in a beautiful chateau”
It was the nicest and coziest accommodation throughout our entire stay in France (and we changed a lot of places). We felt welcome and we were treated very warmly. We loved it that accommodation was in a quiet place, with a lovely pool area, where we also could chat with other guests. The chateau is also a few minutes drive from lovely towns, where you can do some sightseeing and find cute restaurants. If you want, you can also book a dinner at the chateau. Chef Chris prepared an amazing dinner, which we ate in the beautiful area downstairs. I would definitely want to come back!
