Its a really neat/cool place to stay for a night. The chateau is a little run down (as expected as its construction started in 1231), but that adds to its charm. The hotel room was beautiful and clean. The only issue was pink/orange mould on the bottom of the shower curtain. We also had the best meal on our Southern France trip at a nearby restaurant (Authentique restaurant).

Not for everyone as the location is remote. Plan on renting a car to get there. Breathtaking views, clean air and a step back in time. Only stayed 1 night as part of a romp across France. Plan to go back and spend a few days to properly explore. And yes, it’s a real castle!

We loved our stay. The property owner and host Isabelle is a lovely woman who made sure our stay was enjoyable. She called a made reservations for us at a local restaurant that accomodated us late in the evening. The castle itself was incredible. Amenities were as described, we were very comfortable. The breakfast was great. I would love to return again one day.

geweldig verblijf, in een echt kasteel.

geweldig verblijf, in een echt kasteel. Zorg ervoor dat je wat boodschappen meeneemt naar het verblijf toe. Winkels,restaurants ect. zitten niet om de hoek. Voor een supermarkt is het al snel een half uur rijden.

--What I liked: They kept it as close as possible to the original decoration, and it was great. --What I didn't like: 1) For the visit, there was no note in advance mentioning that the people staying at the castle should pay for the visit. I would prefer to know it in advance than be charged 12 Euros per person at the end! (even though she reduced it because I told her nobody mentioned that). 2) Also, in the reservation email, the checkout time is before 12, but she asked us to check out at 10! I don't know which one is the reference!

L hébergement est totalement typique dans la mesure où on dort dans un château. La chambre était propre et confortable. Nous avons même eu droit à une visite guidée du château. Les gros points négatifs étant le petit déjeuner beaucoup trop léger servi par la propriétaire et le respect des mesures sanitaires. En effet, la propriétaire toussait devant nous dans la préparation du petit déjeuner sans aucun masque. Pareil pour la guide qui était sans masque. Il était également possible de dîner mais la somme de 40€ apparaît excessive pour un repas.
