Wonderful Historic Chateau

Arnaud and Dorothee were wonderful hosts. They took us through the house, showing us everything we would need to know. When we had trouble starting the outdoor grill, we wrote a message to them, and they came right over to show us what we were doing wrong! Staying in the chateau is like being dropped into history! Wonderful. The kitchen is wonderfully updated,, and although I did not swim, my fellow guests say that the pool is very refreshing! We would definitely stay here again! Thank you, Arnaud and Dorothee!

A family celebration at Fontenay

We visited Fontenay to celebrate our golden wedding anniversary with our family and friends. Over the week we stayed, there were 12 of us. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and an enormous amount of space. The children spent a lot of time in the swimming pool or roaming the large estate. The house, both outside and inside, is just what you would expect from the photos. It comes with a working barbecue, which is handy for a communal meal. There is a well stocked local supermarket only three minutes' drive away and Bourges and Nevers are also interesting places to visit within a 40 minutes drive. So if you want to get away from it all with the family, I can highly recommend Fontenay.

Wir hatten einen schönen Urlaub mit drei Familien. Die Gastgeberin und der Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit bei kleinen Problemen.Die Unterkunft hat viel Flair und ist inklusive der sanitären Anlagen in einem für ein solchen Haus erwartbar angemessenen Zustand. Leider reicht das WLAN nur in zwei Räume im Erdgeschoss. Die vier Zimmer in den oberen Etagen (zwei Einzel-, zwei Doppel-) werden bei Sonnenschein sehr warm und verfügen bei einer steilen Holztreppe nicht über Fluchtwegen. Die große Terrasse ist überdacht, am Nachmittag/Abend jedoch ohne Schutz der Sonne ausgesetzt. Wegen der genannten Einschränkungen geben wir nur vier von fünf Sternen.

Vacances dans un véritable château

Nous avons passé de merveilleuses vacances au château avec nos amis. Les propriétaires étaient très sympathiques et serviables. Le quartier est très calme, mais le supermarché est tout proche. Nous avons fait du kayak sur la Loire, ce qui est tout à fait recommandé. La prochaine fois, nous devrons explorer un peu plus la région.

fantastisch kasteel.

Echt supergaaf om met drie gezinnen in dit kasteel te verblijven! Ruimte te over en alles heeft een mooie oude charme. Luxe is het niet maar als je echte wat jaren terug in de tijd charmant vindt is dit wel heel leuk. Het ontbreekt je eigenlijk aan niks. Van de bewoners mer je de aanwezigheid niet dus het is net alsof je het landgoed geheel voor jezelf hebt. Wel een minpunt was dat het zwembad erg koud was. er zijn ook leuke uitstapjes zoals een klimpark aan een mooi meer, Kasteel guidelon, Bourges en kanoen op de rivier.
