Medieval monastery converted to a beautiful hotel with loads of character and charm. Lovely grounds surrounding the hotel were ideal for afternoon picnics or reading under the shade of the massive pine trees. Great restaurant in-house with locally sourced menu. Every detail was perfect and the staff were brilliant. The surrounding Gorges du Tarn and Gorge de la Jonte were absolutely astounding. Great base for exploring the Cevennes.

Charming, old world and different

The hotel is set in a historically old French chateau. It has a very lived in, old-world charm and its mild eccentricity was appealing. The hotel grounds are spacious and beautiful and I had a room which, once reached up the steepish backstairs, was large, very comfortable and well equipped. The food was very good and the staff friendly.

Chateau experience

Can highly recommend pool, ambience, reception, courtesy of staff. Breakfast needs a little updating to be in line with dinner standard. However I would return despite the enjoyable but pricey evening meal.

Une fois n’est pas coutume, on a réservé notre séjour le jour du départ. On a eu une demande spéciale à adresser au château, qui nous a assuré tout de suite qu’elle allait pouvoir être satisfaite. Sur place, on a été ravis dès les premières secondes. Le château est très beau, bien entretenu, émanant une ambiance fidèle à l’époque lointaine qu’il reflète. Un voyage dans le temps garanti ! Le personnel est tout simplement adorable, que ce soit les réceptionnistes-serveurs ou la belle-sœur du propriétaire, ou encore le propriétaire lui-même ! Petit-déjeuner copieux et dîner savoureux. On a bien profité également de la piscine avec nos deux bébés. Une expérience féerique, que l’on a bien envie de réitérer !

Over prised og lever ikke op til de 4*

Den interne del af hotellet var ok. Værelset var fint, men opholdet levede ikke op til prisen. Den externe del af hotellet, parken og havemøbler trængte voldsomt til en gang vedligehold. Køkkenets aftensmad var ok men meget fantasi forladt, nærmest på niveau med et brasseri.

Court mais excellent séjour bucolique

Dans une ambiance presque familiale ou même les animaux se sentent bien, dotée d’un accueil conviviale, distingué et de qualité, mais sans suffisance. Une très belle table aussi, dans un excellent rapport qualité prix comme l’ensemble de l’établissement. Superbes terrasse et parc.

Sneaky weekend in the mountains

We had a lovely time. The hotel rooms were typical French shabby chic, it was perfectly located for us - out of the town, quiet with plenty of space to walk our dogs. The landscape around was breathtaking with plenty of activities available. The little holiday town was perfect - had everything you needed I Mc using a choice of restaurants to suit all budgets and was quaintly attractive. The hotel restaurant was very good and not expensive, breakfast average. The Indoor pool was lovely, new, clean and warm. The outdoor pool wasn’t open as it was not warm enough at the time we went and it was being renovated. The only real negative was despite advertising free wifi throughout the hotel reality was it rally was only accessible in the public rooms. The staff were very accommodating so that we could watch the Grand Prix on the tv in one of the public rooms.
