"Great experience"

"every thing was nice"

"I was always taught not to kick a dog when it’s down, however I feel compelled to write a comprehensive review of the failings of this Château. Whatever the history of Château de la Bainerie it matters not. Those currently in charge of looking after and managing this Château clearly do not have the skills, motivation or mindset to do a good job."

"The host was wonderful, really helpful, booking a restaurant for us, and checking that we had what we needed. The kitchen is fine but is a galley and cramped for more than two people at a time. Facilities there are OK and all the basics are there. House was clean and well equipped and the beds were comfortable "

"Staff very helpful in ordering Pizza for us as restaurant not open Sundays. The only drawback was having to wait an hour for reception to open at 6.30pm"

"Lovely place to stay, comfortable and good service newly refurbished just a few things not quite right yet. No mirror or dressing table in the room no chair or table or anything for clothes. Food expensive as Michelin but poor descriptions for English only speakers. No less expensive options and nowhere local so for a longer stay?? No lift but they do carry your bags for you. Outer areas still to be finished."

"Probably the best holiday rental we’ve ever stayed in. A real home from home. Hot tub/jacuzzi perfect, swimming pool perfect. Very private and very comfortable. We made full use of the outside kitchen. A very well equipped property. Our hosts were wonderful, we had problems with our car on the drive to the accommodation and they were fantastic helping us communicate with the garage. Nothing was too much trouble. Very informative with suggestions of places to visit and restaurants to try. Thank you for making our holiday very special. "

"First off, I cannot fault the host, Marie, who was warm and welcoming when we arrived and was quick to respond to any issues we had during our stay. The property is very much as per the pictures in the listing with the upstairs being light and airy but the downstairs is rather dark. Although we didn't use it, the games room looked like it could be fun and give older children a space of their own. The pool is great. It is clean and well maintained and Marie's husband comes by every other day to check it out.The location is good and generally peaceful, although the road running next to the property is used as a bit of a cut through. We have stayed in rural France many times so know what to expect but we did at least expect to be able to find an open restaurant in one of the neighbouring towns. Perhaps it was the time of the year we went as many were closed for all or a large part of August. The addition of WiFi would boost the overall review score and be a big help to those without unlimited data roaming."
