Efficient, courteous and genuinely caring staff. The food in the gastronomic restaurant is excellent. The property is very quiet.
This is an amazing place, and the room we stayed in so charming and unique. We ate at The Cottage Bistro and the food was superb. Amazing attention and care from all the staff made us feel very welcome. Would certainly stay again if we are in the area again. Highly recommended.
We had a wonderful stay the restaurant was incredible and service, second to none. Particularly Amelie & Nicholas who were so professional & spoke better English than we did French.
Thoroughly recommend the hotel lovely grounds & peaceful setting, the room was really comfortable lovely bed!!
Wow, the hosts really were wonderful. They were very welcoming from the outset and even spent quite a bit of time with me to ensure I was comfortable, speaking slowly and carefully so that my rusty French had some time to acclimate. The view from my room was spectacular. The birdlife around the chateau is outstanding, making it a sublime experience for nature lovers.
We only stayed one night while passing through the area, but I truly wish we had stayed longer. This hotel is absolutely stunning, set on beautiful, peaceful grounds that immediately put you at ease. The atmosphere is incredibly tranquil — perfect for relaxing and recharging.
Our room was very comfortable and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. I especially appreciated the little details, like the Rituals cosmetics and the fact that the hotel is pet-friendly. The lovely staff even brought a little bags of treats to our room for our dogs, which was such a thoughtful touch.
Each room has its own private terrace, which made the stay feel even more special. This place is a real gem, and I’m definitely saving it for future trips to France. Highly recommended!
Beautiful and relaxing family-managed resort in an awesome setting. Excellent food at both restaurants. Michelin star chef. We’ll come back for sure. Just perfect!
I like the property, but is a little all with, no services like bellboys

We stayed two night and as it were, we stayed in two separate rooms. The first room was nice but lacked a coffee marker. The second night we stayed in a privilege room which was slightly larger and had a sofa. The restaurant was closed but the bistro was open. Overall, a pleasant stay but nothing exceptional.
Belle chambre au calme spacieuse. Peu de personnel à l’accueil ce qui entraîne un peu d’attente au Check in. Un nouveau logiciel a posé des problèmes de facturation tant au restaurant qu’à l’hôtel

Trevligt hotell där vi stannade vid genomresa. Lummig och fin trädgård, tyvärr ingen pool vilket skulle höja betyget. Mycket fin frukost. Vi åt inte på Michelin restaurangen i slottet utan på Bistron. Bistron var lite för modern och syran i inredningen för vår smak, maten ok.
Meget charmerende ejendom, nærmest lille Château med dejligt stort (superior)værelse med meget stort badeværelse ( bad og douche). Smukt indrettet. Stor flot park-agtig have.
J’y ai séjourné en le sélectionnant par hasard, mais maintenant que je connais, j’y retournerai avec grand plaisir en toute connaissance de cause.
De l’accueil, à la chambre, en passant par le restaurant, le mobilier, le cadre et le personnel, tout était proche de la perfection à mes yeux.
