Attrape touristes malgré un bonne accueil.
Pros:

Emplacement calme

Cons:

Literie plus que moyenne…
À se prix là, on s’attend à quelque chose de qualitatif…
Niveau literie c’est plus qu’à revoir!
De plus le manque de petit déjeuner est un point sacrement négatif!
Nous nous attendions à dormir dans le château mais nous avons été logé dans la tour…

Pros:

Miła cucha ołówkiem można skorzystać z basenu zewnętrznego ale opis jest mylący na booking bo to nie jest spanie w zamku tylko w wierzy. Ładny i czysty pokój jak to w wieży maleńkie okno, bardzo ładna i wyremontowana łazienka

Cons:

Mylny opis - nie ma ani kuchni do własnego użytku i niejeat to nocleg w zamku tylko w wieży - Brak Internetu.

Description is very misleading and disappointing
Pros:

Location.

Cons:

More accurate photos &description are definitely needed to avoid disappointment. The location of the cottage in the chateau grounds is lovely, but the issues I mention below did mar our stay.
We booked the cottage at Chateau de la Menaudiere as a perfect mix of an independent, self-catering cottage in the grounds of a hotel. The description & photos give the impression that it is a ‘regular’ hotel with the facilities that go with it.
However, the ‘hotel’ is now solely a wedding venue so is not open except for weddings!
The Booking.com details clearly state ” From April to October, Château de la Menaudière serves a daily continental breakfast with regional produce and there is also a bar where guests can enjoy wine-tasting.” Also “… offers an outdoor, seasonal pool, free parking and free WiFi access.”
However, there is NO wifi. Plus very poor mobile phone signal, due to the rural setting. There is NO router in the cottage. .
The proprietor said the problem must be with our devices as no guests had experienced any problem connecting to the chateau wifi (50m away) before. We were given the password to her personal router next door to the cottage, but we could not connect to that either. We were obliged to visit cafes and restaurants in order to deal with various issues & had absolutely no problem connecting to the wifi anywhere else. On further digging into reviews, other guests HAD stated there was no wifi. The “free toiletries” advertised on the site consisted of a mini piece of soap.
The bathroom & kitchen were new and clean but my low score was due to the bedroom carpet – photo attached – which was filthy & stained. No barefoot wandering to the bathroom!
The proprietor & family live & park next door. They were discreet & respectful, but the wonderful large windows were not conducive to comfortably slouching on the sofa or wandering around in your pyjamas.
I have reviewed 22 holiday properties on Booking.

Beau cadre mais beaucoup trop cher pour ce que c’est
Pros:

Le cadre était très joli, logement atypique et dépaysant dans la tour annexe du domaine, hôte agréable et arrangeante, la chambre était propre

Cons:

Un peu déçu par le manque d’équipement de la chambre ( pas de cafetière, seulement une bouilloire, sèche cheveux en panne, pas de wifi proposé et aucun réseau dans tout le domaine ), noir total à la nuit tombée, aucun éclairage extérieur, ainsi que part le passage de la tondeuse au pied de la chambre du matin jusqu’à la fin d’après midi, un peu dommage pour un week-end au calme …
