We were lucky that we picked out this chateau from our book coming from the direction of Tours. Driving along the big lane the chateau appears in our site and it was love at first sight. The welcome was warm and we didn't book upfront but that was not a problem. We saw all the available rooms and after some... more

We stayed three nights at this beautifull property. After reading earlier comments on tripadvisor we booked our stay and didn't take the comments about price and dinner so serious. But we should better have listen to these comments. and so should the owners. Dinner was served in a beautiful room. However the quality was totally not acceptable. The starter were... more

We stayed a suite which was fantastic. Four poster bed, chaise longue, dressing room and fabulous views of the grounds. The outdoor heated swimming pool with sunloungers and bar was very relaxing and comfortable.

Chateau stay in the Loire: We stayed with a another couple for 3 nights in October. Dinner wasn't good at the house--expensive for what was received and not too tasty. Breakfast was 15 Euros each-- normal continental breakfast. The last morning none of us wanted it, but when checking out we were informed that since we didn't tell the owner... more

Four of us (two couples) booked two rooms for three nights at Chateau des Briottieres in late October. Mr. deValbray’s welcome was pleasant, the downstairs living rooms are pretty, filled with family heirlooms and portraits. Our bedrooms were “cozy” (small) and filled with knick knacks and furniture (an earlier reviewer had it right – no space between the bed and... more

We stayed at Chateau Briottieres a few weeks ago and were delighted with the chateau itself---it was built and has been inhabited by the same family since 1840. It is filled with a perfect French ambiance including beautiful, antique furnishings, exquisite draperies, wonderful food and a huge park with running horses, an old chapel and greenhouse, pool and tennis courts—and... more
