Review Submitted: December 06, 2007, Date of stay: December, 2007

'In any other country, the château would be a tourist attraction in itself... We stayed in the stylishly converted guard's houses in the grounds, where the children spent their evenings playing with an army of kittens while the adults barbecued and drank local wine. It was also an excellent base to explore the
nearby villages, Angers and the Loire Valley just beyond it.'
Article from the 'Irish News'. (Northern Ireland)

'Thank you for a wonderful holiday.' S.T. (UK)

'The Guard's House was a perfect place for us to start our school holidays as it meant that we switched off from work straight away. Your property is a perfect place to be either as a family or as a group of adults. It is a beautiful bit of France to visit without being 'touristy' in the bad sense at all.' D.V. (UK)
