    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!

    A delightful rural location, beautiful gardens, nicely modernised mini chateau! We recommend booking an evening meal - fabulous meal and lovely local wine! A nice refreshing dip in the pool before drinks in the garden.

    the only thing was there were no tea or coffee facilities available in the room. however the hosts were very attentive and we only had to ask, so it actually wasn’t an issue.

    lovely chateau and grounds. very peaceful surroundings although we did have the whole chateau to ourselves on our stay.

    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!

    I did not like the shower in the ensuite - I do not like shower curtains. However, I appreciated that the bathroom was in the turret of the chateau.

    Chris & Barbara were great hosts. We ate in on our overnight stay, and the meal was excellent! The pool area was lovely too. Breakfast was good.
