This is a beautiful well kept property with extraordinary hospitality extended by the Proprietor Alain and his wife and son and staff. They offer a very traditional French experience, from the accommodation to the aperitif to the petit dejeuner. It was magnificent and we cannot wait to visit again. We wouldn't change a thing about this hotel or this visit!

Great value but needs tlc
Great hotel and new owners took over in April. It's a bit dated and needs some tlc but I'm sure new owners will sort. Only negative is the wi_fi it's only about .5 Mb so very poor

Séjour très agréable dans un hôtel très bien tenu.
Un séjour avec 2 nuits très agréable et reposant après un petit périple à vélo. Accueil très sympathique et efficace. La chambre était particulièrement agréable et la piscine est un plus. Toute la déco est très sympa. Nous y retournerons avec plaisir si l'occasion s'en présente.
