Really excellent base for our early season trip to see the chateau. Nicole and Andre could not have made us feel more welcome. They and their family are delightful. There were flowers, wine and homemade biscuits to great us and then when we left we were presented by a wooden candlestick made by Nicole and Andre's son. The bed and breakfast includes various pastries, french bread, homemade jams, fresh fruit and cereal. We came down at about 8:30 am everyday to find all that we needed to sort ourselves out. The self-catering part is if you book both rooms you get a free rein in the kitchen/dining/living area downstairs. In terms of accomodation it was very comfortable. We went in March and the heating inside was excellent and just right. The showers were also hot and powerful. Both double bed rooms had ensuite shower rooms and toilets with automatic lights (very useful at night). The kitchen/dining/living open plan area has all the appliances that you will need including a dishwasher. A lack of baking tray and a square baking dish were all that I missed but I cook a lot. A tin-opener was quickly provided on request (perhaps the person before us had nicked it). There is a large flat screen T.V. The living room area part of the downstairs is as small as it appears in the picture but we did not go on holiday to watch T.V. If you do not speak French then Nicole and Andre's granddaughter does very well. There is off street gated parking. We would return.
