We ended up at this hotel unexpectedly due to a car breakdown—and what an incredible silver lining it turned out to be! The owners were absolutely phenomenal: kind, welcoming, and truly went above and beyond to make us (and our dog) feel at home. The whole property is beautifully maintained, with lush gardens, a lovely pool, and a peaceful, relaxing ambiance that felt like paradise in the middle of a stressful situation. It’s clear that animals are genuinely welcome here, not just tolerated. Breakfast was plentiful, toasty, and delicious—such a comforting start to the day. What a hidden gem! We’ll definitely be back under better circumstances.

Nothing to complain about! Thank you again for having us!

Lovely old chateau/ hotel, lovely gardens, lots of antiquities on display, and lovely furnishings. Nicole the hostess/ proprietor was very welcoming and helpful as on a Monday night all local restaurants are closed so we were directed into a nice restaurant in Vienne, an 8 min drive. Had an honesty bare so we had a G &T and a small bottle of red wine. Did not use swimming pool, too early and we are too old. Only shortfall is no lift ( an old chateau!) so needed to carry what we needed up the circular stair. It is not walking distance into Estrablin

This is a beautiful 16th century chateau. Not only can you stay in the chateau itself but there are other properties in the grounds you can stay in too. Our room was decorated and cleaned to a high standard. The room has air conditioning which also generates heat into the room if required. The host was so welcoming and created a very relaxed and trusting atmosphere. The breakfast buffet was immense with eggs, bread, cheese, ham, croissants etc. The breakfast room was full of character and atmosphere. To top it all there is also a swimming pool with sun loungers for residents use.

Nothing

Everything about this place is magical, it completely exceeded our expectations. Charming and helpful hosts.The building is stunning and there are so many unique touches. We were there on a hot Monday evening and once we arrived we didn't want to go anywhere, Nicole ordered pizzas for us which we enjoyed with drinks from the honesty bar. There is such a wonderful homely and welcoming atmosphere. We met several other guests and it was a wonderful evening.

Everything was fabulous

Superb stay at an exceptionally lovely and characterful place. After having driven from the UK all day, it was a delight to have a swim in the pool, followed by a cold beer, followed by a pizza delivery. We had the 2 bedroom apartment which was great for the four of us, and our host took good care of us to ensure we had everything we needed. Breakfast was delish. Easy location to find and get back to to the motorway the next day. Perfect. Couldn't ask for more.

Really nice room. Our hostess ordered us Pizza and supplied us with olives and pop corn. Paper plates and cutlery. Ate our pizza on the terrace which was very pleasant. Lovely grounds and lovely rooms and furnishings. Nicole is charming

Nice pool but strong smell of chlorine and a bit claustrophobic sitting arrangement We prefer to just have a shower, alas here we had Hand shower in bath.

Greenery. It felt like we visited fairy tale house. It felt like home . The garden is so beautiful. Trees around the hotel are so big and so old. Space for breakfast inside and outside is so calming and welcoming. Very Special place with a lot of magic!!! We will come back 💕🩷🌷

We understand how complicated it is to keep space this big in perfect shape with all the details taken care of. We liked the balance that the owners make to make this hotel run. Price totally justified.

La Gabetiere This a lovely place with a lovely hostess. She is very attentive and kind to her guests, including the four legged ones. It’s a great experience to stay in such a historical house. So many nice features to look at and enjoy. There is a nice terrace and beautiful garden with plenty of possibilities to sit and enjoy. We went to a lovely Italian restaurant just a 5 minute drive up the road.

Beautiful old chateaux, bursting with character and charm. Not your run-of-the-mill, chain hotel. Extremely friendly, helpful owner, with a good sense of humour.

Nothing — but because of the age of the property and the spiral staircases, I’m not sure how accessible it would be for people with disabilities.

The host was most welcoming and charming. i thought vthe breakfast was superb.

Only accessing the circular stairs. But this was in keeping with the character & age of their beautiful home.
