Domaine de Planchoury

The chateau is amazing, beautiful, historic, relaxed, huge outdoor spaces, fascinating history, and extremely helpful owners who made us feel very looked after. Genevieve is such a lovely host and welcomed us with a glass of wine on arrival and explained all we needed to know. She was incredibly helpful and was able to tell us about local attractions and provide discounts to some of them. We were there over easter and our children were each given a gift with their breakfast on easter Sunday. The personal attention was lovely, they remembered that my daughter likes hot chocolate at breakfast. The grounds of the chateau are very spacious and we were able to walk anywhere as if it was our own garden. Nothing better than a glass of wine in the sun after a day out. Our rooms were large and stylish, breakfast was superb with a large selection of fresh local produce including an enormous plate of croissants. This is s safe and secure property, within a short drive of local fascilities and many chateaux in the Loire area, highly recommended and we will be back next year.

On arrival our hostess who happened to be our charming owner, received us warmly, chatted with us and offered us a wonderful glass of regional wine. We had parked our car in the property s private gated parking - short walk to the front door. The b&b building is an anexe to the grand beautiful castle and the grounds are gorgeous, very quiet. Our bedroom was comfortable and quiet. The only thing we could find fault with was the temperature. We were visiting at freezing outdoors temperatures and the bedroom being under the roof, was a little cold. We did have heating and added electric heaters and heavy comforters. For us it was chilly. When we mentionned this to the owner. She kindly offered us the room on the ground floor. This was fantastic. I cannot emfasize enough how much we appreciated this bedroom. Very large and comfortable- a meeting of modern and period style furniture. The bed was outstanding. After sleeping on this special mattress we now intend purchasing one for our home. The bathroom was modern with an outstanding hot water shower. We did not use the separate bath. Every morning we got a delicious breakfast with a choise of many food items. Croissants, pain chocolat french baguette and bread amongst many other items. We watched the sokker on a large screen TV in the living room with an open fire burning. All so cozy. Our hostess - owner asked us everyday how we enjoyed ourselves and if all was to our liking, ready to make us as comfortable as possible. The sights. Castles were a short drive away. So for sight seeing this domaine is in the middle of it all. Oh not to forget. We enjoyed the informative guide books left in the living room for the guests. Everything was spotless. We had a great stay and hope to return. Thank you Genevieve and Co.

Our hostess was wonderful, the welcome wine was unexpected and welcome. The breakfast was fresh from local bakery and still warm. We arrived later than expected and we made to immediately feel at home. This is period setting and if we had time we would have stayed several days. It was like stepping back in time, I didn’t think places like this existed outside the movies. What a gem. We had an early tour and she made sure breakfast was available a little earlier to accommodate us. The best croissant I have ever had. What a period place to stay.

Everything!! The chateau is so beautiful and surrounded by charming gardens, little forest and river - it’s a really special place. The host Genevieve is so lovely and greeted us with a warm welcome (drink included) :) the breakfast was amazing - the best croissants Ive ever eaten and I even got a special vegetarian veggie mix each morning. If you have the chance to stay here you simply must 😊

Great comfortable place, very friendly host Large rooms , great butter croissants and good coffee Easy access and parking, need to note that you need to check in not before 5 pm

Facilities could be improved, like spa tenis courts, but we knew about this before our travel so we were satisfied .also no aircon but fan was sufficient for us however if it gets warmer it could be a bit hot

Lovely historic chateau that has been tastefully and intentionally decorated. Beautiful gardens and Outlook. Close enough to a neighbouring town- Langeais. Breakfasts were sensational and Genevieve was an attentive, friendly and helpful host. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking to experience a stay in the Loire region.

We were made extremely welcome by the host who was so friendly. Our room was immaculate and cosy. It had everything we needed. The breakfast was superb. Every taste catered for and the presentation was exceptional. We will definitely return again and can highly recommend.

the house is beautiful, the surroundings gorgeous. it felt like home and has made anywhere else very hard to live up to. our host Genevieve is the mould they make great hosts from. when you think things can’t get better you wake up to breakfast

that we didn’t stay longer

Everything was wonderful. The host greeted us with a welcome drink upon our arrival. The room was lovely and the breakfast was wonderful. There is a kitchen on-site so you can also prepare your own meals. There is a beautiful fireplace in the common living room.

Breakfast was amazing with a really good selection of food. Rooms were very nicely decorated and was very large

Check in was very late at 5pm and it was hard to find the property. There is only a brass sign with small writing on it. It was very easy to drive past as did the other guests.
