We’ve been to France many times and stayed in dozens of hotels. This is the best ever, faultless from start to finish. First impressions on driving up to the building through beautifully maintained gardens really set the scene. We were welcomed warmly, and upgraded to a Prestige room. The room had everything we required; comfortable superking bed, sitting area, spacious bathroom with bath and shower over; overlooking the front lawn, but very quiet. We didn’t eat breakfast but had dinner on each of our 3 nights- again, faultless. Interesting seasonal menu, 4 choices per course, a superb Chariot de Fromages and flawless, professional and friendly service. Service was excellent despite the presence in the hotel of a small (ish) tour group each night. There’s lots of parking, and room to store bicycles in the old stables. You can also hire bikes and there’s a waymarked cycle route (no. 31, 24kms) from directly outside the hotel. It’s also within easy reach of Azay-Le-Rideau, and Chinon amongst other attractions. Unreservedly recommended.
