CHARMING CHATEAU IN ADORABLE VILLAGE
Review Submitted: June 3, 2008

The chateau "Cristallin" was everything that the photos showed and more. It is a warm, lived in home, well maintained, very clean and very charming! It is tucked into a tiny corner of a tiny village out of a movie set. It is close to a slightly larger town, which has shopping, and grocery stores. However, note that they all close early. This is a true french village, no tourist amenties here, which I found very refreshing. It is a day trip to the towns of Cognac, Bordeaux, and Loire Valley. The owners, Amanda and Dave, were extremely helpful in advising where to go and how to get there. They also helped me out in a difficult situation with my rental car, providing me with much needed french translation. Again, they went out of their way for me, and extremely accomodating. I would and will recommend this chateau to my friends!
