The effort to make each set of rooms feel time authentic yet have all the mod cons was amazing. We had dinner, a three course set meal which offered great choice and excellent food, service and all round experience. Would definitely return a d recommend to all.

Unique suite and so calm. Absolutely delicious dinner!!
Note: the pool is closing early in the evening (8pm) which is unfortunate for the late arrivals.

Chateau exploring
We had a two night stay and enjoyed it but no kettle or tv in our room seemed a bit odd. Like most of France arriving on a Sunday makes it hard to find any where to eat the same on Monday night. We found it a good base to explore the chateau’s of the Loire area

We booked a romantic room but instead received the key of a completely different room. It wasn’t expected. The bed was comfortable but the bedroom atmosphere was cold. I would suggest to install some draperies and a large rug to make it more appealing at least.
We enjoyed the breakfast and service in the morning. Unfortunately the restaurant is closed on Sunday and Monday but we made reservations at a lovely restaurant down the street called vert vert. It was excellent.

Le label relais du silence est amplement mérité; l’accueil est très agréable et lors du départ la gérante a été charmante et très cordiale. Le petit déjeuner est particulièrement copieux dans un cadre convivial. Endroit où l’on se sent bien
