La Barrière du Maine Hotels, La Ferte-Mace

"Beautiful property. Just a shame we couldn’t stay longer to enjoy it "

"Lovely location. Friendly staff. Spa lovely. Food very good."

"Staff"

"The hotel needs a serious refresh"

"Expensive, very basic, poor customer service. I always used to use this hotel but now I only use if no others are available as everything about the hotel has got worse over time. "

"Our host at Au Fer à Cheval was Romain, a friendly and helpful man. He owns about 20 English thoroughbred race horses, as well as breeds them. His farm is in a beautiful location with lovely views. It was unfortunately cold and wet for the two nights that we were there, so we couldn't use the pool, and the roads were too slippery for him to take us out in his horse-drawn carriage, but we did see two of his retired racing mares with their foals. Our room was comfortable and clean, good shower, and a small kitchenette. It's a good idea to take your own tea, coffee and milk with you. Continental breakfast was good and delivered to our room at the time we requested. A good guide book in English of what to do in the area was left in our room, but perhaps the only disadvantage of the place is that it is quite isolated and a long way from any any restaurants. Overall, a lovely place, and we'd recommended it."

"It was value for money, with a decent breakfast"

"Great location, super comfortable bed, excellent pool and convenient for walks, countryside and town, restaurants and bars. "
