What a fabulous stay we had at the Château! To be able to stay in such an historic home was incredible. Our host was fantastic, his breakfasts were wonderful. His recommendations were excellent. We really enjoyed hearing the history of the Château.

We had 3 fabulous nights at the Chateau and could have happily stayed more. Carl and Sabine are the ultimate hosts and helped us with dinner reservations, sightseeing and more. We stayed in the Blue Room which was amazing - I felt like we had stepped back in time to the 17th century! Bottled water, tea and coffee were provided in the room and we had daily service which was nice after many hotels now providing this. Breakfast was amazing - cheeses, cold cuts, fresh fruit, yoghurt, bread and a different pastry and tart each day - stunning. Carl gave us an informative chat about the history and gave us directions to visit places we hadn't even thought about. Restaurants in the small towns close by were fabulous. Next visit we will give Carl notice and have him cook for us so we can dine in house. Really excellent value to live in a piece of history in the Normandy area.

Château stay
We had a great stay at the Château. They were extremely friendly when they greeted us. They even helped arrange a reservation at a local seafood restaurant. Unfortunately we had to leave early, so we can't speak to the breakfast.

Thank you for your comment. We were very happy to have you here. Very sad not to have you for breakfast and tell you the story of the house. But we understand that it was the decision of you government concerning the flights blocage to the US that made you go so fast. Welcome again when this mess will be over. Regards Carl & Sabine

This is an exceptional bed and breakfast situated in an old family Château making it a rare experience in a busy world. Karl and Sabine were excellent hosts with a very warm welcome! If you ask Karl to cook for you one evening you are in for a gastronomic great! A gentle, quiet and utterly restful stay, ideally placed for exploring the history of the area.

The property and surroundings were beautiful. The gentleman owner was gracious. The wife was rude and yelled at my son and I for arriving at 1630, which was when her husband asked us to arrive. Her anger was so disturbing to us, we didn’t want to stay, and left a day early. The breakfast was excellent.

Dear Madame, We are happy that you liker our home and that you enjoyed the Breakfast. Now considering your purpose about my wife. You came first at 2:20pm and I received yo and told you that the room wasn’t ready, I proposed to take your luggage (witch you declined) and come back later, you said “Ok, then we’ll go for a glass and come back in a couple of hours (You’re right, couple means two, so my fault). If you would have read all information about our B&B (not Hotel), you would have known that we have check-ins from 6:00 pm (if no previous agreement). This is a logistical issue because we run this place by us 2, wee don’t have any staffs that make the work for us. So you can understand that it takes time to redo the rooms after the morning departures. The real fact about why my wife got upset was that your Son climbed over a CLOSED GATE and my wife found him in our kitchen. A B&B is a private house where we are honoured to receive people and we respect them, I think we could have that in return. If I would have trespassed your gate in Los Angeles, I think the issue would have been much more different. We hope your trip to Prague is going / or went well. Best regards. Carl & Sabine

The chataeu is adorable and filled with history, which the host is sure to tell you about over breakfast. The breakfast was absolutely amazing, complete with fresh cheeses and apple juice from the region. If I was ever in the area I would make this my first choice to stay at.

Fantastisk oplevelse
Det var en fantastisk oplevelse. Et meget autentisk sted, virkelig en fantastisk oplevelse. Rigtig fint morgenbord i skønne omgivelser. Rigtig venligt værtspar, som var behjælpelig ift, hvad vi gerne ville opleve i området. Var også behjælpelig med at reservere bord på restaurant til aftensmad. Hvis vi kommer tilbage til området, kunne vi godt finde på at overnatte der igen. Tusind tak for en skøn oplevelse
