Chateau La Rochette

Wow, wow, wow sums up the words in your head when you arrive at La Rochette and those expressions of awe do not stop there. As soon as we got out of the car and were welcomed by Uwe waving from the downstairs window and Ina from the top, we knew we were in for something very special…. We were not disappointed. Our room, the house, the vast grounds, the swimming pool, the area, but most of all the hosts were truly special. Driving around the French countryside, visiting beautiful villages and towns and eating the most exquisite food were just some of the reasons we didn’t want to leave. When you add canoeing on the river surrounding the land (setting off from the private beach on the banks) and having a dip in the pool, what more can anyone ask for. Well, you could ask for hosts who go above and beyond to make your stay special, their home is your home. So, for just a few days, why not indulge yourself in all that is wonderful about rural France and allow your self some luxury at La Rochette. We cannot wait to go back, thank you Ina and Uwe for creating such special memories.

When we arrived we were amazed at the size of our room and on-suit bathroom which was decorated to a high standard and very in keeping with the chateaux. Buffett-style breakfast daily, plus hosts made us boiled eggs fresh every day too. The chateaux and its grounds are beautiful, peaceful, and comfortable. The hosts are great, picking us up from the local restaurant and inviting us to share wine with them in the evening. Very relaxing and on the river Dronne where we were able to canoe at a local site 5 min down the road.

Difficulty with phone signal, but this is not always a bad thing especially if you want peace and quiet. The location is off the beaten track with a 20-minute walk or 5-minute drive to the nearest village.

The chateau was amazing, it has been decorated very tastefully and in keeping with the surroundings. The new pool was really nice. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming, even drove us to the local restaurant and back when we were unable to get a taxi. Choice of breakfast, cereal, cold meats & cheese, eggs, croissants, juice, tea, and coffee. Buffet style help yourself and eat outside (inside the dining room if raining). The location is just outside the village which is great if you want peace and quiet. Lots of places to visit but its ideal to have a car to get about.

Nothing it was all great.

Our stay at Châteu La Rochette was amazing. We will recommend it to all our friends traveling to France. We had an amazing rest surrounded by the most beautiful garden in a superb Château. The owners Ina and Uwe are amazing hosts, they are super attentive and super warm people. Their breakfast was to die for, including fresh coffee with fresh cheese from local farmers. The Château is amazing, it has gigantic gardens really well maintained. The dinning room is very beautifully decorated and the dorms were SUPER comfortable and very beautifully decorated, we rested like we haven’t rested in a long time.

There is nothing not to like about the property.

What to say? Everything was just what we hoped for, but better! The warm Welcome, friendly and professional, the comfortable Bedroom and en-suite Bathroom, Breakfast - a beautifully kept Property with Owners who really do their best to make their guests feel Welcome and well looked after. THANK YOU, we will certainly try to return to Chateau La Rochette.

Leaving!

Our hosts were great and really made us feel welcome, the Chateau is amazing and a beautiful place to relax. Great choice of continental breakfast every morning, with freshly cooked eggs as an option, sitting out on the terrace.

Nothing.

Host couple were very welcoming and relaxed which made us feel at home immediately. Comfort and quality throughout at 5 star level. Location is superb with beautiful walks in the country, by the estate River or easy walk into local village. Also made use of the on site bikes for a longer journey. Would return regularly. Highly recommend this beautiful chateaux and lovely hosts.

Nothing

The Chateau and it’s surroundings are beautiful, and Ina and Uwe are wonderful and thoughtful hosts. Breakfasts were also always great. Plenty of activities are available to keep busy in the surrounding area (canoeing, horse-riding etc.) though it is also charming, quiet and relaxing. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and warm atmosphere and a truly restful stay!
