The woman running the place was very pleasant and helpful. The location beside Chateau Valecay was ideal, as we were visiting it. The curious style of the building and quirky furniture were likable. Really lovely garden. Spacious room.

Small suggestion here: It's silly not to have a clearly signposted bell on the front door if you are locking that door and there's no one around. We had driven for six hours to get there. The bell was small and unmarked and we missed it. Not a big thing but irritating. I could have done without an attempted lecture about how obvious the bell was by the man who eventually heard us banging on the window. A patronising little finger wagging isn't my favourite greeting when I arrive. But we got over that very quickly. To emphasise; the woman running the place was great.

A huge apartment with all facilities in a central quiet location, perfect to visit Valençay château. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, with home made jam, cake and yoghurts. The owner took the time to talk to us at length and made us feel very welcome. It was good to have a secure and free parking . We would definitely recommend to stay in Aux portes du château if you visit the area

nothing we can think of

A delightful place to stay. Clean, comfortable and tasteful. Liked the balcony too. Friendly, attentive hosts. I had an early train and was kindly provided with a take-away breakfast (thank you again!). Great location as a base to enjoy the local area and chateau.

Nothing to add here.

A historic and beautifully presented apartment. Really comfortable and brilliantly managed. The breakfast was really lovely, and the proximity to the Chateau completely unique.

Impressive decoration and renovated buildings, long beds quite comfy for people with back issues, very nice host. Very nice and big bathroom with shower, bath, and two sinks. Homemade breakfast desserts, good breakfast, everything fresh and good quality. Hairdryer in the room.

Walls are quite thin, we could hear people next doors. Only one big towel per person and one tiny towel for the hands/face to share. No fridge.

A good breakfast with homemade banana cake.

The entrance is a little off putting as the brown gates give you no idea of the beautiful garden courtyard and buildings that await you.

The room was fabulous. The decorations and the furniture were amazing. Better than 5 star hotels. The owner was caring and the breakfast with home grown fruits was delicious.
