Fantastic setting. Lovely bedroom and communal areas. Gardens and pool are excellent and the art around the property is great. Wine tasting was good. Dinner at La Petite Colombe was great - but make sure you book.

Prachtig hotel met een uitstekende service (zelfs onze huurauto werd gewassen). Hele ruime en fijne kamer. Wij hadden een nachtvlucht en mochten onze kamer tot in de avond gebruiken. Heel fijn zo’n late check out!
