What a fantastic find! My husband, 14 year old and I were thrilled to fine this place. It’s modern inside a historic monastery. Just beautiful. The pictures don’t do it justice. If you can’t do stairs requests a ground floor room. We definitely would come back. The grounds & views are amazing.
Such gorgeous hydrangeas

We have been travelling around France, Spain and Italy for 12 weeks and this stay was the absolute highlight of all the hotels we have stayed in, this place is stunning. The weather was dreadful but it did not matter. The grounds are exceptional with stunning views at every step. We had breakfast and whilst not a huge cooked option the rest was quality produce and more than enough for breakfast. We are in the restaurant and went for the tree courses which was exceptional value for money, again quality produce both well cooked and well presented. Two nights was not enough, we loved it. We also travelled with a dog who was welcome in all parts of the Chateau.

Très beau cadre dans un château joliment restauré malgré des tons un peu ternes dans le restaurant Au niveau du confort il est dommage d’arriver en fin de journée dans une chambre glaciale en novembre alors que le temps est froid et pluvieux Le restaurant était également trop froid J’aurais préféré plus d’explications sur les menus : j’ai choisi les petits farcis et j’ai vu arriver une petite courge farcie de légumes donc un plat végétarien

Nous avons passé un joli séjour. Le domaine est magnifique. Un havre de verdure. Tout y fait pour accueillir des groupes ou mariage. Cependant il manque de quoi s'asseoir pour encore plus prendre son temps et contempler. Les chambres ne sont malheureusement pas toutes dans le château. Un petit déjeuner un peu décevant.

Site remarquable dans un décor qui l'est tout autant. Chambre neuve parfaitement décorée, tv grand écran, très bien, literie très confortable, propreté irréprochable. Un bémol, le petit déjeuner .....café mauvais (voir meme très mauvais), à 9h40 alors que le service s'arrete à 10h,il n'y avait plus de confiture, plus de beurre , plus d'oranges pressées, plus de charcuterie, pas de fruits, ni en salade ni meme à l'unité, et lorsque j'en ai demandé on m'a répondu : "il n'y en a plus" .....A 18 euros le petit déjeuner, etre cantonné à manger juste un mini-croissant (excellent au demeurant) c'est dommage et du coup ça fait cher le croissant....
