A NE PAS RECOMMANDER

J’avais rĂ©servĂ© ce logement dans le cadre mon dĂ©placement professionnel. C’était une Ă©tape entre 2 journĂ©e intenses de rdv. Je suis arrivĂ©e Ă  18h fatiguĂ©e de mes rdv de la journĂ©e qui se sont enchaĂźnĂ©s sous 33° avec 2h30 de route depuis le Puy en Velay, route magnifique mais sinueuse et affamĂ©e car dĂ©jeuner rapide , bref envie de me poser, dĂźner et du travail sur mon ordinateur prĂ©vu ensuite. Mauvais surprise en arrivant personne pour m’accueillir. Les 3 numĂ©ros de tel indiquĂ©s sur la porte ne rĂ©pondaient pas j’ai dĂ» attendre 1h30 avant que quelqu’un n’arrive aprĂšs plusieurs messages que j’avais laissĂ©s sur tous les numĂ©ros
.autant vous dire que j’étais trĂšs en colĂšre. J’ai eu au bout d’une heure d’attente un appel d’une jeune fille je suppose la fille de la propriĂ©taire , cette derniĂšre n’a mĂȘme pas pris la peine de me rappeler elle mĂȘme ! Cette jeune fille s’est excusĂ©e sans explication en me demandant d’attendre encore 1/2h !! . Je n’ai mĂȘme pas eu de proposition de remise commerciale qui aurait Ă©tĂ© la moindre des choses en ce cas !

Sehr schönes kleines Chateau mit netten Gastgebern. Unser Turmzimmer mit Blick auf den Pool gefiel uns sehr. Wunderschöne Sonnenterrasse. Das tĂ€gliche schwimmen im gepflegten Pool hat uns besonders gefallen. Typisch französisches FrĂŒhstĂŒck mit selbstgebackenem Brot und eigen produzierter Marmelade. Sehr idyllisch gelegen. Zum einkaufen oder essen gehen ist Autofahren unerlĂ€sslich.

Etwas weit ausserhalb, die Anreise ĂŒber schmale kurvenreiche Strassen ist abenteuerlich
 wer zu spĂ€t kommt geht unter UmstĂ€nden hungrig ins Bett, falls das einzige Restaurant im Ort geschlossen ist. Das ChĂąteau de Bessas ist die Strapazen aber unbedingt wert. Eine freundliche Gastgeberin, gutes FrĂŒhstĂŒck, respektvoll in die alten GemĂ€uer eingebaute Zimmer, ein hĂŒbscher kleiner Pool im Innenhof und von den oberen Zimmern und von der Sonnenterasse ein atemberaubender Blick auf das grĂŒne Umland. Ein guter Ausgangspunkt fĂŒr einen Ausflug in die Grotten von Orgnac d’Avens.

La chambre rĂ©servĂ©e n'Ă©tait pas disponible, mais apparemment l'hĂŽtesse est coutumiĂšre du fait Ă  la lecture d'autres sites. Donc la vue vallĂ©e est devenue vue arriĂšre cour. Trop de cheveux par terre. Accueil flegmatique ou jmenfoutiste, mon cƓur balance. Prix affichĂ© en chambre petit dĂ©jeuner inclus largement infĂ©rieur Ă  celui payĂ©. Joli site, jolie chambre et bon repas qui compensent le reste.
