Lovely Chateau with amazing food & wine

Amazing great Chateau with lovely spacious rooms - off season it was a skeleton staff but they were friendly and attentive. The food was top notch - worth the trip for that alone. Golfists would enjoy it too.

Absolutely charming chateau hotel

Absolutely charming chateau hotel close to Bergerac with outdoor pool and many local attractions. Friendly and professional staff: our pet dog was welcomed and they and went the extra mile to prepare special food she needed.. Also, great food and ambience for humans in the restaurant! A car is essential to access the hotel..

We stayed in one of their standard rooms which was cosy and beautifully clean. We had a candlelit dinner on the terrace and breakfast the next day, the food was excellent. We also made use of their pool area which was very serene. I would also like to mention that their staff were very friendly and helpful. All in all we had a lovely stay.

A pleasant visit.Food options could be better

We had a very comfortable stay in this lovely place outside of Bergerac. Our superior room was large, light and airy, as was the bathroom. It’s a peaceful place to be. Although the hotel has a very good restaurant, we found nothing to eat.the breakfast was disappointing and not to the same standard. Some croissant and choice of breads/ cereals would improve things, as might eggs made to order.

Een idyllische plek waar men er alles aan doet om je thuis te laten voelen in de Dordogne op 10 min. Van Bergerac. Goede wijnen, whiskey’s en heerlijk culinair eten. Goed onderhouden golfbaan. Fijn zwembad, mooie villa’s om te huren met het gezin. Men spreek Nederlands, Engels en Frans. Eigenaren zijn Nederlands.

Beautiful French Countryside Experience

An authentic French countryside experience. Not the Ritz but incredibly comfortable and special. If you are okay with a few economies - older towels, for example - you will enjoy your stay. The property is beautiful and special, the staff could not be kinder, the food in the restaurant is traditional French-chic, the breakfast is massive. I would go back in a minute. If you want to see the Dordogne, be near Bergerac, play a little country golf, taste wine - this is a great spot. We visited in chilly February and it was still spectacular. Recommended without any reservations.
