Luxurious hotel in the French countryside.
Pros:

Beautiful property, we were upgraded to a suite which was wonderful. There was a personal note and small welcome gift in the room which was very considerate. The bed was extremely comfortable and the bathroom was excellent. Bathrobes and toiletries were lovely as was the very large walk-in shower. Pure luxury!
The restaurant was excellent, food was delicious and the service impeccable. We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend this beautiful hotel.

Cons:

Nothing

Wunderbare Anlage mit sehr gut ausgestatteten Zimmern und sehr freundlichem Personal
Pros:

Wir hatten eine Suite mit Terrasse und ein Doppelzimmer, beides hervorragend und sehr geschmackvoll ausgestattet. Unsere Hunde haben sich über den den eingezäunten Garten gefreut. Das Personal war immer sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, unsere Hunde waren auch im Restaurant willkommen. Die ganze Anlage ist tip top gepflegt und sehr ansprechend. Der Service war hervorragend. Wir haben eine Nacht auf der Reise in die Bretagne dort verbracht.

Cons:

Frühstück und Restaurant sind im gehobenen Preissegment.
