Restful Stop
Pros:

Very good evening meal. They also served us drinks in the bar on arrival , so we could eat some canapes we had just bought in St Omer, which we enjoyed in the bar in the afternoon before our evening meal.

Beautiful building, great location.
Pros:

Location
Beauty of the actual building
Communal areas
Staff friendliness

Cons:

Over complicated dinner- nothing vegetarian at all ( except desserts!) as someone with a sweet tooth, there weren’t any desserts that I liked. I understand that it’s good to experiment as a chef ( one of our sons is a chef) however I think to have one veggie friendly option on a menu is, in these times, a bonus. I don’t expect to have to ring in advance these days. However all the inter-course items, plus the bread and our fish main course were tasty.

Superbe découverte!
Pros:

Nous avons énormément apprécié notre court séjour. Tout était parfait. Magnifique rénovation effectuée avec beaucoup de goût. Nous avons dîné au restaurant - très belle table et excellent rapport qualité prix.

Le domaine est parfaitement situé pour accéder au tunnel sous la manche.

Merci à toute l’équipe!

Now sadly seems unloved and understaffed for the price and location
Pros:

Dinner was poor - the duck was so raw the provided cutlery would not cut through the meat. The menu claimed to be €39 for three courses (with supplements for steak and foi gras ) but we were charged extra for a shared cheese plate instead of the included 2 portion dessert, Charged separately for the one steak, twice for the foi gras - each at a differing charge!

Room 22 was OK but the floor was on slightly differing level to enter the room then into the bathroom - each level about 2 cms, just enough to trip you up in the dark. The WC was in a small cubicle such that a 6ft man had to "squat" slightly to one side!

Cons:

The dinner and confusing charges . Tripping up in the bedroom

Pros:

Great place, not far from Calais, with an excellent restaurant.

Cons:

It's a good idea to clarify with the property whether you want a room inside or outside the chateau, and on the ground floor or an upper floor. Don't leave it to chance, especially in the busy season.
