“What’s not to like? The rooms are an eclectic mix of old and new French style, the building is a 17th century château that’s pure French elegance, the food’s great and so are the views. At Christmas, the Château is dripping with decorations, roaring fires warm you over dinner in the grand salon and frost clings to the chestnut trees in the courtyard.”
