Domaine Des Bidaudieres

Everything

Nothing

Real character as it’s a very old chateau. The swimming pool was lovely, although cold and refreshing Breakfast was continental style, with great coffee and in a nice room.

With being an old chateau our room had quite a small window, so room was quite dark, but with a lot of charm.

Miejsce jest naprawdę bajkowe. Stara winnica, zamkowy klimat i nowoczesne udogodnienia. Właściciele są bardzo sympatyczni. Personel również dokładał wszelkich starań by niczego nam nie brakowało. Widok z pokoju na basen i jezioro cudny. Nasz dwulatek robił za każdym razem głośne "wooow" kiedy rano po przebudzeniu wyglądaliśmy przez okno. Taras w ogrodzie doskonale nadaje się do picia wina i patrzenia w gwiazdy. Staroświeckie latarnie dodają uroku. Co tu dużo mówić, żal było wyjeżdżać. Jeśli kiedyś jeszcze zawitamy w te strony na pewno odwiedzimy to miejsce ponownie!

Śniadania mogłyby być bardziej urozmaicone, no ale w końcu to Francja. Zdążyliśmy się przyzwyczaić do bagietki z dżemem :D

The breakfast was delicious. The coffee was excellent. The terrain was beautiful from a distance. The pool table was a nice diversion after a long day. The access to the kitchen was appreciated. There was plenty of property to explore.

The smell of new paint was mildly offensive and ever-present, however, the painter was quite friendly. Some amenities were only made accessible after we took the initiative to ask or find them ourselves. There were dead frogs in the pool that we had to skim out along with an abundance of leaves with the skimmer we found by the pool. Thank God. The pathways and gardens were neglected and somewhat hazardous. There was clear evidence that they were once quite beautiful, but the natural beauty did shine through. The beds......well, what can I say. The doubled bed had pillows that looked really good but were quite uncomfortable. The small bed was inadequate at best. It had a rubber mat to ensure one's urine did not damage the mattress. It was lumpy and like sleeping on a stack of hay covered in a vinyl tablecloth. Definitely not appropriate for an adult. Overall the facility is in a general state of disrepair with wire exposed at outlets, a hole in the tub patched with duct tape, and a leaking radiator in the bathroom. I believe there is a chance the the state of disarray may have been due to back-to-back weddings which over-burdened the staff. Lovely staff.
