Staying here was the hightlight of our trip. Merci.
A wonderful week with most delightful surroundings. We have loved every moment of Chateau De L'ange. The garden, the pool, the village and the beautiful countryside around. So many old and medieval villages so near to visit. We loved your dinners Martine. Life at Chateau De L'ange was memorable.
Many thanks for a delightful time in the chateau. We have loved travelling to all the villages and enjoying all the different experiences of travel. But best of all was returning to the chateau for a quiet beer/wine and relax.
I think it is every person’s dream to stay in a castle and you’ve made our dream come true. The chateau is a spectacular journey into the past and one can almost in vision lords and ladies gliding from room to room. The ambiance is fabulous - such serenity and peacefulness surround you wherever you go in this magnificient place. Meeting you and your husband - and Achille - has been a real joy. Your warmth and friendliness will be christel memories for the rest of our lives. It has been a true privilege to share your friendship and your magnificient home.
