Les Demeures De Varennes, Bw Signature Collection

“I will always come back.”

Excellent French Hotel in a chateaux. I love the style and the people and the love they put in their property. They have a sweet Weimaraner dog! Excellent breakfast and good french food. Thats old french living and not Paris Show off. High Classe.

“Nice hotel in a nice place”

Nice hotel in a nice place with a kind staff A marvellous garden The room was cosy and the bed very comfortable. However the breakfast could be improved with more choice and more classical jams! The environment of the swimming-pool could be improved too.

We came here as a gift for our wedding. From the outside it seems picturesque and in a great setting- which it is. However, we were a little disappointed. The whole place seems to have been converted from a much bigger house at some point, with very little planning or prior thinking as to how it would be converted into usable, quality guest house. The welcome was warm and charming. Staff were pretty helpful. The grounds are pretty big, but with some areas cordoned off, making the actual usable space much smaller. The pool was a great little feature tucked away, it was heated and was clean- full marks there... This said, as previous comments have suggested, 'quirky' and 'rustic' should not be confused with 'dated, old and mismatched', some bits are indeed authentic and charming, whereas other features are the latter. Our room was on the 2nd floor with a great view over the garden, however the walls were extremely thin and we could hear the couple in the next room... (He booked it for her as a surprise. They intended to dine at 8.30 after a quick walk). The shower was luke warm, a door which didn't open, due to shelves infront if it, made one of the walls in the bathroom. Some furniture was damaged with missing handles, but in general it was clean and tidy. We weren't sure whether our bed was a double bed, or a 3/4 bed. Neither of us slept well. The toilets made a big noise when being flushed, never mind the smell that they emitted... (they seem like the toilets that one would put in a loft conversion, with an inbuilt blade). The restaurant served an excellent evening meal, the t-bone steak was one of the best I've ever had. The staff in the restaurant were amazing. The breakfast was a standard continental breakfast buffet. Not a great stay, but not a bad stay either. +Great restaurant +Great pool +Friendly staff -Poor quality of rooms -Thin walls -Poor sleep Overall, I think that much better facilities could have been created if they'd have spent more money, more time and aimed for a better standard of finish on the planning stages.
