Château de Contay Guesthouse - 1753

This is a great place to experience life in a Chateau. Access to all main functions rooms and a very warm welcome from Ann the house manager who was so helpful. Thank you.

Having to leave and return to reality.

What a find! Lovely chateau that comes with Anne who really couldn’t have been more helpful. Superb breakfast as well. Large bed with freshly laundered linen sheets and a great bathroom too.

Everything was excellent and our host and fellow guests made for a welcoming stay. Breakfast was superb and Madam prepared for us an evening meal which was excellent - Thank you so much

All was excellent

Good location and pleasant property. They were good about us forgetting to pay when we left.

The host just stopped short of rolling her eyes when she asked if we spoke French (her first question). I did Duolingo for a year and I'm not confident speaking especially under this sort of pressure. She used Google translate on her phone, but I could understand what she was saying as I recognised words so in fact my French was better than her English! She also gesticulated wildly almost shouting at us when we drove the car in front of the house when returning from our evening meal. It's not clear what's part of the place or parking when you arrive, it's on the left before you turn into the front of the house. This really upset me and I had a little cry that night, I didn't want to stay there anymore, but we were stuck. The room was nice, but no kettle or coffee machine (You have to go downstairs to a little pantry and get it). Also so no cooling system or fans and it was boiling. Breakfast was around a table with everyone else who were all friendly, luckily at 9am. It was limited to yogurt, granola, bread, cheese, pastries and some peaches. The host brought coffee cup by cup. I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I didn't like this experience and wouldn't recommend on that basis. My husband booked it. We were visiting WW1 sites and heading on to Reims and Verdun.
