We stayed at the château for two nights at the very end of June, in the Coriandre room—and it was absolutely fantastic! The property itself is nestled on gorgeous, expansive grounds with manicured gardens, a lovely swimming pool, and an ambiance that feels both timeless and delightfully welcoming. We arrived past midnight after a long drive from Segovia, but thanks to the clear and thoughtful check-in instructions we received earlier in the day, everything went smoothly. We had no trouble finding parking or accessing our room. The room was stunning—beautifully styled and equipped with everything we needed, from a hair dryer to a portable fan that came in handy on warm nights. Every detail was considered to make guests feel at ease and at home. It was truly a bittersweet moment when it came time to leave. We would love to return and spend more time soaking in the peace and magic of this unforgettable place.

Franske slotte er nu noget særligt....

Dejligt lille slot med god service. Smuk udsigt fra poolområde. Tilknyttet restaurant var en god oplevelse, men lukket tirsdag-onsdag. Fremragende som et roligt udgangspunkt for Biaritz og Bayonne.

Très bel établissement avec un personnel très agréable et à l’écoute. Nous y sommes restés 3 nuits et nous y reviendrons avec plaisir. Toutefois, Ménage salle de bain à améliorer ( joints carreaux en bas de la douche et poussière tablette ) et rangement de l’espace piscine serait apprécié ( Dès le matin, chaises longues et tables disséminées dans tous les sens sur la pelouse et certaines toiles de protection solaire à terre ) .

It was fun to stay in a castle. The breakfast was nice but not sure it was worth 13 euro. Should have booked a room downstairs as there is no elevator. However, the staff carried up and down our suitcases. Best bed ever!

Very beautiful Chateau hotel, lots of antique furnishings and decor, set in lovely gardens and a very attractive modern swimming pool with comfortable loungers and friendly bar with views over the Pyrenees, wild flowers, and fields of horses. The chateau is out of town by the airport, which is very convenient at the start or end of a holiday. There is very little noise from the planes but you can hear the traffic nearby, although not see it as the grounds are lovely. It is about 20 minutes drive (or taxi) to the beaches. The chateau serves light food by the pool (salads, burgers etc) in the daytime and on Monday night there was a great BBQ by the pool. There is a smart restaurant next door - which we sadly couldn't try because we foolishly didn't realise it was a public holiday (Bastille day). There are no other restaurants nearby but normally it isn't a problem to get a taxi in.
