Everything was delivered to a high standard, the bedroom, the bed was super comfy,the grounds, the food and the hosts were lovely,nothing was too much trouble.We even had a quick tour of the chateau and learnt a little of its history. We went to a local restaurant and came back and had night cap in the grounds looking out onto the lake as they have plenty of table and chairs for guests. I just wish I had booked a longer stay.

All amazing

This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed in. The rooms were absolutely delightful and the host gave us a good tour of the property on arrival. The grounds are immaculate and my children loved spending time in the gardens. Breakfast was plentiful and enjoyable. The beds are so comfortable and everywhere is wonderfully kept - I wish we could have stayed another day. The family work very hard to make this a special place to be.

It is expensive to stay but I would say this is not a dislike as such because it’s a wonderful experience- I think they also do some offers if you stay longer. They don’t offer evening meals but did give good suggestions for places to eat nearby.

Truly idyllic location. There are wooded and field paths around for short (or long) walks and a sweet little pond. The room was more than ample and very comfortable and above all the staff and family of the house were kind and super hospitable, without being in your business. Everything was flexible and open to what we were looking for.

Cleanliness was 10/10 Hosts were very nice and welcoming The quality of the duvets, pillows, linen , towels was spectacular

The bed was rather small and the bed frame was quite old. Despite the fantastic mattress, pillows and linens , each time we turned or moved in the night, there was so much noise from the bed frame

The chateau and its grounds are absolutely breathtaking. This place is a perfect blend of authentic charm steeped in history and all the modern comforts that one might need! Every detail of the chateau is so carefully done, nothing is random or missing, from the breakfast table and delicious breakfast to the little touches throughout the sitting room and bedroom. There’s so much to see and you feel so welcome, it was just a wonderful experience. I can only recommend and will certainly be back soon. Thanks again Emilia and family!

That we had only 2 nights there.

tastefully renovated charming old castle. Vast park. Very quiet. The hosts are charming and friendly, and happy to help with suggestions where to go for day trips. Rennes is in reach. Good for those who don’t want to sleep in a noisy city. We would definitely come back!

It is not easy to put into suitable words the wonderful experience of staying at the Chateau de la Villedubois. I share the enthusiastic descriptions of most guests without any reservation. I was there for three days with a friend and we had a wonderful time. Like probably most guests, we are not used to being in a 14th century chateau and being personally served by the 11th and 12th generations of the chateau owners. Emilia and her parents (her husband and the two children were on holiday) understand in a wonderfully sovereign way how to lose one's timidity in front of the impressive ambience and to feel at ease while at the same time maintaining respect for this magnificent estate including park and lake. I have travelled extensively throughout the world and have had magnificent accommodations, but the style, atmosphere and warmth of this chateau and its hosts are something very special. This is a wonderful place for people who know the difference between pleasure and consumption.

Absolutely beautiful chateau in a lovely location. We were made so welcome. Even the pussy cat was happy to see us and sought tummy tickles! Will definitely return and hopefully for a bit longer next time.

Can't think of a thing

Everything. It was perfect in every way. Whilst the accommodation and surroundings are wonderful, the owners make this property, there is such a lovely atmosphere. One immediately feels so welcome and relaxed.

Nothing

Portraits of owner's ancestors of hundreds of years, the chapel, the prayer room renovated as a bar, the grand piano, vast and natural landscape with a lake, ... Villedubois provides a very very peaceful and pleasant environment. Emilia & Allard, as well as their parents & their adorable kids possess class that can't be compared to other similar Chateaus. They welcome and support you with much joy and warmth, yet, very thoughtful to make you feel comfortable. As a result, you can have a great balance between peaceful relaxation and joyful comradery. I also enjoyed interacting with Emilia's wonderful parents. A conversation with her father was very, very fun and pleasant. Breakfast was served individually and with very thoughtful consideration. Knowing that I do not speak French, the host set aside my meal in a separate room and yet, asked if I want to join the other guests. This is a rare level of thoughtfulness you can expect. Villedubois has been open for B&B only for the past 2-3 years and I wish it really prospers and keeps improving, so that I can bring my family next time I visit France. Thank you and wish all the luck to Villedubois and Emilia's family!
