About this castle / palace rental

We were a three generation family of 9, although the house would comfortably accommodate more. This is a top quality house with excellent amenities. All the rooms are beautifully and individually decorated to a very high standard. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms luxurious. The entertaining rooms are beautifully furnished and spacious. The kitchen has a delightful array of crockery and all useful gadgets and equipment. Great care has been taken over every aspect of the property. The pool is well provided with loungers sunshades and towels. It was clean and kept very well. The gardens are beautiful and extensive. The tennis court is excellent. There is a very good barbecue with adjacent table and chairs, as well as other places to have breakfast or drinks on the terraces.
We were greeted very warmly on our arrival and shown round the property by Claude and Ben to ensure we knew how it worked.
Overall all of us would highly recommend this property. It is close to a village with 2 boulangeries a butcher and small convenience store. There are many things to do nearby: kayaking was a great day. Nantes is a very attractive historic city.
We all enjoyed it. Over the years we have rented many houses for family holidays. The only issue for us was whether this was the best, or the joint best of all of them!

With 12 friends we spent a week at this location. The location is actually even more beautiful than you can see in the photos and that starts at the driveway. All the rooms are so beautiful and impressive. The bedrooms are large and have comfortable beds. 6 of the 7 rooms have a beautiful private bathroom and often a separate toilet. One of the 'rooms' consists of three rooms, a nice hall and a bathroom. You then 'live' in a wing of the building.
They are all very luxurious rooms with a fantastic view to the outside. You have the feeling that you are in a very luxurious hotel, but without staff and other guests. Even the hall and hallway upstairs are impressive. All the luxury for yourself. This location is overwhelming. The facilities such as swimming pool, Jacuzzi, tennis court, volleyball pit (sand), soccer goals, table tennis table, trampoline and pool were all well maintained. The garden around is also very beautiful, so you can sit on different sides of the chateaux in very beautiful places. Nice in the shade or in the sun. From the location you can immediately take beautiful walks and a good butcher and bakery are also close by (a few minutes by bike). It's not a noisy location, so you don't hear people walking on the stairs or creaky beds from other rooms. It is very quiet and because of its size you will always find a quiet spot if necessary.
At the pool they have plenty of sun loungers, umbrellas and towels. There is also a washing machine which is super handy.
It costs a bit, but then you have a priceless memory for life. What a beautiful location.

Perfect week spent at the Chateau - beautifully clean and well presented. Near to local towns and villages for groceries and restaurants - plenty to do with a beautiful new tennis court.
Ben and Shelley are there if you need them but totally invisible otherwise!

From the moment we drove through the gates we were impressed, the building itself, the friendless of Ben and his family, the rooms, the grounds, the quality of all the extras, a lot of attention has been put to details, the kitchen has any cooking gadgets you need, you'll never run out of any plates, cutlery, plenty of everything, the towels are lovely and fluffy, the wine glasses are quality ones, there are welcome little things in each room. All these details are the ones that for us make this not a great rental, but an extraordinary one.
We were 2 families of 5 and both the adults and the kids enjoyed the week 100%.
If you want to relax by the pool and Jacuzzi, this is for you, if you are the sporty type, you have a brand new tennis court, plenty of other games, and great surroundings for a walk or run.
I could go on and on, but I won't. Best summary would be to say that on the last day Ben, the owner, asked us for anything they could improve to make it a better rental, we couldn't think of anything to say.
Thanks Ben and Shelley for letting us into your chateau, thanks for all your help. I'm pretty sure it won't be the last time we see each other.
