Property information

We’re delighted to welcome you to our family mansion! Unlike an impersonal hotel, we can’t offer services like 24-hour concierge (also ⭕️⭕️ CHECK IN AFTER 9 PM IT IS NOT POSSIBLE ⭕️⭕️), but here you'll reconnect with the peace of nature. My name is Chiara, and my husband is Eric. We recently bought this place and are gradually working on it, so we hope you’ll forgive us if everything isn’t perfect just yet. And please keep in mind, being in the countryside means insects and animals are part of the experience! The Château hosted the famous English eponymous writer Daphne du Maurier and you can find a taste of it in her novel “Scapegoat". Continental breakfast is included. The kitchen is ⭕️ NOT AVAILABLE FOR GUESTS, and there is no restaurant on site but we provide a list of nearby places which we ⭕️ recommend booking in advance ⭕️ - to all our booked guests. You will find a mini fridge and a kettle in your room as well. ⭕️ NOTE: the swimming pool is open from 9 am to 7 pm FROM JUNE TO SEPTEMBER Information on how to access the place will be sent on check-in day. PLEASE NOTE most of the time we are here, but sometimes our colleague will welcome you, she does not speak English, so if you can express yourself in French or Arabic it is okay, I will send some more info as well. Otherwise, if you feel more comfortable, do not hesitate to connect directly with me. She also knows how to use a translator, so far we had no problems on communication! Au plaisir de vous rencontrer, Chiara Château du Maurier
