Castle vacation rentals in English Channel

Deze locatie kwam volledig overeen met wat er werd geadverteerd. Het huis ligt mooi afgelegen in een klein dorpje. Ideaal voor wie rust zoekt, weg van de drukte. Het contact met Charlotte verliep vlekkeloos.

A fantastic family chateau that accommodated 3 families comfortably, and even nicer in real life than in the photos. Large well kept grounds and loads of space to explore. There is plenty to do in the local area. Basic amenities within a few minutes' drive including a great riverside bistro in Daon, the nearby large town of Chateau-Gontier is 15 mins away while Angers is around 40 mins away for everything a city provides. Highly recommended!

Le gîte est une partie du château. Le site est magnifique, très calme avec un parc immense. Idéal pour réunir une grande famille.

Due to the fantastic photos on Airbnb our expectations were already high, but reality by far exceeded all our expectations. We really spent a perfect week in the wonderful Garden Apartment in Acton Castle. Maybe the most impressive is the incredible view over the bay of Penzance with the spectacular St. Michael's Mount as its central point. You can enjoy this fantastic view from the living room, from the breakfast table or even when doing the dishes in the kitchen. Another highlight is the garden which is really beautiful with a nice pond, wonderful plants and flowers and many great places to sit and enjoy the view. Also the 18th century Acton Castle is a very beautiful and really impressive building. The apartment is ideal for a family like ours with 2 children. The main sleeping room has its own bathroom with toilet and shower. The main bathroom has a bathing tub with shower and another toilet. The appartment has two floors. Sleeping rooms and bathrooms are in the basement, while living room and kitchen are in the first floor with its incredible view. The appartment offers a lot of space for a family of four and we weren't missing anything. You reach the costal path within two minutes from the garden. We did a very nice walk to St. Michael's Mount. Acton Castle is also a good starting point for many activities in the area. You can easily reach Penzance, St. Ives, the Lizard Peninsula and many, many more great places by car. There are several big supermarkets in the direction towards Penzance which you can reach within 10 minutes by car. Garden Apartment in Acton Castle is a really perfect place to spend a perfect holiday and we definitely give a 5 star recommendation. Thanks to Tim for giving us the possibility to enjoy this great place and the area around it.

Our stay at Chateau Le Mont Epinguet surpassed all of our expectations-- it's truly beautiful and Fiona and Mark are beyond friendly. We went as a group of 18 and still found the house incredibly spacious-- you'll never be on top of one another! The gardens outside are lovely and provide lots of spots for sunbathing/reading (and so spacious we even got in a game of rounders). The kitchen has as much crockery as you might ever desire; there are several excellent and large supermarkets within a 15 minute drive (better quality produce and more economical than any British supermarket). Above all-- I cannot express the warmth and kindness of Mark and Fiona-- they're exceptional hosts who attended to any queries we had and provided a wealth of excellent beach & restaurant recommendations. A beautiful chateau, a wonderful (eccentric) interior, with lovely gardens (esp. the palm trees), and great for friends who wish to spend some time stuck together.

The chateau was everything we thought it would be from the moment we drove through the gate. The serene setting was welcoming and inviting. The gardens and landscaping were lush and picturesque. Upon entering the front door, we felt like we’d been transported to the 16th century. Wood floors, flowing draperies and richly colored walls all add to the general ambiance. There are numerous bedrooms from which to choose, playrooms for children, spacious living and dining rooms and a kitchen meant for gathering. The kitchen is well stocked and the fireplace warms the rooms and its inhabitants. The two outdoor tables provide opportunities to enjoy the setting while sipping wine or eating a meal, Marc was very accommodating. He offered suggestion for things to do and places to shop in Sartilly.

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour chez Monique, à la découverte du Cotentin. Le logement est dans un endroit paisible où il fait bon de profiter de la terrasse. Le tout était très propre.

Back again for another fab long weekend at Henrietta’s and it did not disappoint! Cosy bedrooms, roaring fire and the warmest of welcomes as ever. Always a treat 🥰

Fantastic stay at Seacombe 7 of us plus a dog. A very comfortable house overall with very comfy beds and good linen, enough bathrooms to go round and well equipped in the kitchen. Lovely peaceful location with a pub over the road with plenty of walks and sights nearby. Thank you!

Had a wonderful weekend at Northcourt house. Beautiful property with everything we needed. Clean rooms and a well equipped kitchen. Perfect when you travel and cook for a larger group of people. Peaceful surroundings and James is a helpful and friendly host.

The property was absolutly wonderful, the photos don’t do it justice! I particularly appreciated the garden with its beautiful array of trees and patches of forest. The estate was so vast I dont think we made it to the edge. The house was extremly private and out of sight of any neighbours. The house itself was spacious and comfortable, so were the beds. I was working online and the internet connection was good, even with multiple connections, with a very nice dedicated workspace. The kitchen had every appliance imaginable, with enough crockery for a banquet! While I was there the trees were ripe with fruit and we were treated to pears, apples, rasberries, blackberries, stawberries, grapes and more. The chickens generously provided us with fresh eggs every morning and the peacocks were not only beautiful to watch but also friendly. Not to talk about the wild forna including squirels, pheasents, woodpekers and other small birds… It was a pleasure meeting Philippe who not was an excellent host; showing us around the property and being helpful with our questions, but also an excellent cook, perparing traditional french food for us per our request. He was fun to be around. Overall a great experience, we are already planning when we can visit again!

Nous avons passé un week-end exceptionnel au manoir du Four à Chaux, malgré une météo capricieuse. Le cadre est absolument magnifique et les prestations étaient à la hauteur de nos attentes. Tout était parfait, que ce soit l’accueil chaleureux, la propreté des lieux ou le confort des installations. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir et recommandons vivement cet endroit pour un séjour inoubliable

We had a wonderful stay at the Chateau to celebrate the New Year. You really have to see it to believe how charming this Chateau is - our children wanted to stay there forever! It’s totally unique and a truly great experience. Nina and her Father were the perfect hosts - helpful with all of our questions and providing great recommendations for what to see and do in the area. We wish we could have had more time there!

This amazing home was perfect for a family get together, with walks on the doorstep and parking available. It was well- equipped and spotlessly clean. We found the staircase to the roof garden and loved the views! Only wish we could have stayed longer!

“Firstly, Xavier was the consummate host - communicative, helpful, and friendly. When two of our guests weren’t feeling well, he was especially attentive and considerate, offering assistance with great care. The property and our stay were wonderful. The castle is just as described, if not better - it feels both cozy and expansive at the same time. It is warm and welcoming, and the surrounding village is charming. Plus, there are plenty of unique sites and places to explore within a 15–20 minute drive. For a relaxing and special experience, Xavier’s place was perfect.”

Was heerlijk om een week hier te verblijven. Alles goed geregeld, en goede ontvangst. Hebben genoten van ons verblijf op deze locatie. Verder is de supermarkt en andere dingen goed aan te rijden, dus genoeg om te doen in de omgeving.

Nous avons réservé à la dernière minute et André fut très réactif. Réservation faites la veille au soir pour le lendemain… La longère est tout simplement fantastique et rénovée avec goût! Très calme et pourtant dans l‘hyper centre ville avec toutes les commodités à proximité. Pour les chineurs, on peut y acheter des objets ou bien les peintures de notre hôte Gaëlle! Cerise sur le gâteau, il y a un jacuzzi dans le parc centenaire! C’était génial de faire une pause détente sous les étoiles début Novembre ! Pour les mélomanes, il y a tout l’équipement nécessaire avec vinyles, CDs ou pour les cinéphiles DVDs ou Netflix…. C‘est vraiment une location exceptionnel sur la région! L’accueil qui nous a été réservé fut également très agréable tout comme lors du départ. On reviendra avec bonheur chez André et Gaelle! Dalila, Chloé et Éric

What a wonderful and underrated spot. Firstly, Wilfrid was an amazing host. Always available, very attentive, and Gallic hospitality at its best. He was extremely flexible in all aspects (from check-in, use of spa, and time to eat breakfast). We mistakenly slept in one morning and we were able to eat a proper breakfast at 1130. Extremely clean and a serene environment. A very immersive Normandy experience. The house is very old but fully renovated as it is a passion project for Wilfrid who has spent generations in the house.

🌟 5/5 - Un week-end parfait dans un lieu exceptionnel ! Nous avons passé un week-end absolument génial dans ce magnifique Airbnb. Le logement est spacieux, très bien décoré et parfaitement équipé. La piscine a été un vrai bonheur, surtout avec le beau temps que nous avons eu, et le coin barbecue a largement contribué à l’ambiance conviviale de notre séjour. Petit bémol : la route pour accéder au logement n’était pas évidente à trouver au départ, et une ampoule ainsi qu’un pommeau de douche ne fonctionnaient plus à notre arrivée. Heureusement, le concierge a été très réactif, disponible et super flexible — tout a été réglé rapidement ! La propreté était correcte, et la communication avec les hôtes a été fluide et agréable du début à la fin. Un grand merci encore pour cette belle parenthèse. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir !
