Château de Chantore

酒店是一座有着300年歷史的古堡。房主人也居住在古堡並親自打理幾間客房。房主人非常熱情好客，入住當天我們到達晚了，房主為我們推薦和預訂了附近的中餐廳用晚餐。第二天的早餐也是房主親自準備的，豐盛而温馨。很多食材都取自自家或附近農場，蘋果蜂蜜各種莓果，還有房主烤的黃油蛋糕。用完早餐，客廳稍坐，就有孔雀來到窗外。冒着細雨，漫步在古堡莊園，孔雀一家在前方開路。非常舒適和特別的體驗。預訂了兩個房型，有一間可以遠眺聖米歇爾山。

古堡酒店，很美！堡主很熱情，傢俱和瓷器都很喜歡，早餐很豐富！如果喜歡古色的可以嘗試預訂！

Wonderful location with beautiful rooms and a wonderful park. We stayed three nights. The host was just perfect and we loved the breakfast. The perfect start for our vacation.

Chateau Chantore is a step back in time when minor royalty lived in extensive grounds. Bernard and Inake are passionate collectors of Louis XI art and artefacts. The public spaces are filled with furniture, portraits, ceramics and other collections. Certainly not a place for young children to run around. We were met, after some delay by Inake, who read out a list of dos and don'ts including specific parking instructions. By the time he finished, we felt really nervous! Our room and the massive bathroom,on the first floor (no lift) was spectacular with views of the grounds and horses in the paddock. At breakfast next day, the other partner, Bernard presided and presented breakfast - I say presented because he didn't just slap some food down but made every course seem like theatre. While the food items are not very different from a typical continental breakfast, the service, at a large communal table was exceptional. He also takes a keen interest in your day and is ready with suggestions and tips. A walk around the English gardens is a must. A memorable stay - a quibble would be the horny peacock on the grounds who would give out his mating call, startling you awake from your dreams. (Horses, white swans and 4 pea hens are fellow denizens in the Chateau grounds)

We stayed here as we had arrived at Cherbourg and didn’t want to travel too far on day one. Very happy with the Mont St Michel suite. Lovely view over the parkland and the bathroom was well appointed and high quality. The public rooms and dining room are full of carefully considered antiques and the chateau has been maintained to a very high standard. The owner was delightful and we wondered around the park and water gardens after our welcome home produced cider. Rather than dining out we had a picnic in the park which the host provided plates / cutlery etc for, which was kind. Breakfast was high quality and more home produced apple juice and honey. Has to be 5 stars!

We unfortunately only stayed one night at this amazing castle, but it was a memorable one! The castle is fantastically well restored and the owners care about the smallest detail. It is a huge "wild" garden that you can walk in, with beautiful plants, horses, swans and peacocks. The breakfast was personal, wonderfully good and served by the owners. If you want to live and feel the beat of history - live here!
