Domaine Des Bidaudieres

Das Frühstück wurde an den Tisch serviert, eine Auswahl an Früchten, Brot, Jogurt, Kaffee oder The, etc. War völlig ausreichend. Der Pool war auch sehr angenehm und wir waren zeitweise ganz alleine für uns. Wir erhielten zudem bei der Ankunft von der Schlossherrin einen genialen Tipp für ein gutes Restaurant zum Nachtessen gehen. Sie war so freundlich und reservierte für uns sogar einen Tisch. Besten Dank noch mal.

Gewisse Sachen könnten noch saniert oder ersetzt werden, Laub beseitigt werden, Stechdosen die lose waren und so. Aber eben , ein altes Schloss, das ist immer etwas zu tun.

Cadre idyllique pour une pause à Vouvray. Super accueil. Très bon petit déjeuner. Et cerise sur le gâteau : la piscine et la climatisation que nous avons beaucoup apprécié pendant ces fortes chaleurs.

In a splendid and peaceful setting, a castle of understated elegance and wonderful owners as hosts. The pool is a huge plus.

All was perfect

The breakfast was delicious. The coffee was excellent. The terrain was beautiful from a distance. The pool table was a nice diversion after a long day. The access to the kitchen was appreciated. There was plenty of property to explore.

The smell of new paint was mildly offensive and ever-present, however, the painter was quite friendly. Some amenities were only made accessible after we took the initiative to ask or find them ourselves. There were dead frogs in the pool that we had to skim out along with an abundance of leaves with the skimmer we found by the pool. Thank God. The pathways and gardens were neglected and somewhat hazardous. There was clear evidence that they were once quite beautiful, but the natural beauty did shine through. The beds......well, what can I say. The doubled bed had pillows that looked really good but were quite uncomfortable. The small bed was inadequate at best. It had a rubber mat to ensure one's urine did not damage the mattress. It was lumpy and like sleeping on a stack of hay covered in a vinyl tablecloth. Definitely not appropriate for an adult. Overall the facility is in a general state of disrepair with wire exposed at outlets, a hole in the tub patched with duct tape, and a leaking radiator in the bathroom. I believe there is a chance the the state of disarray may have been due to back-to-back weddings which over-burdened the staff. Lovely staff.
