A restaurant and bar, particularly in the evening, would have been lovely. We wouldn’t have gone out in the evening!!

Very good breakfast for the price. Very comfortable chairs in breakfast room. Amazingly comfortable bedding. Birdwatching opportunities, especially seeing the cranes in their nests and baby hoopoes.

Chateau was beautiful, with wonderful antique furnishings. Our room was enormous (15) with every comfort you needed. A huge window looked over the spectacular gardens. A heated outdoor pool and loungers was a bonus. Breakfast buffet attractively laid out, with boiled eggs on request.

Nothing particularly

Breakfast was amazing, the pool was immaculate and there was lots of space. We were very happy there. It was perfectly located for the beaches and canoeing.

A very lovely peaceful location with an excellent host. The grounds are enormous, they would take several days to walk through the beautiful forest walks.

Absolutely nothing!

The chateau is absolutely stunning in its attention to detail. The owners have worked magic with their devotion to this property. The gardens are beautiful, the rooms are luscious and the property stands out as an absolute gem in the little invillage of Challan. We loved the breakfast in such an elegant setting. It’s worth driving out of your way to experience this incredible place and the very special owners who have made a wonderful oasis where you’d least expect it.

It was cold at night as the heating was off (we were the only guests in the entire chateau and I can umderstand that, but for a traveler with a child it was a bit uncomfortable).

The owner is a very pleasant and caring. We arrived much later than estimated but he met us with a warm smile. The estate is magnificent!

small bed

great property and lovely breakfast

Would recommend upgrading to a first floor, not attic bedroom as the stairs took their toll after a long day and the attic rooms though nicely furnished were not as airy with just a small window - thank goodness for the room fan. Although I quite understand the (good) reasons why, it was a faff to ring the mobile number to order drinks and with no on-site restaurant it meant having to drive to find somewhere to eat (almost impossible on a Sunday!).

Breakfast was excellent. Good choice laid out and lovely ambience in the breakfast room. Fresh orange juice, nice pastries wonderful selection of fresh fruit, boiled egg on request... Swimming pool was wonderful. Nice big bathroom. Grounds were extensive and peaceful.
