“Amazing - best holiday ever”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed at Chateau Voloniere in July, I've got to say without doubt this was the best family holiday ever. The Chateau itself was lovely, very big and comfortable. The swimming pool, although cold was beautiful and the water was from the underground tunnels. Claude was an excellent host and made us feel very welcome in his home. I would definitely recommend.

Room Tip: Best booked as the whole chateau

“Fantastic Place, fantastic People!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2011

This place is absolutely charming, beautiful castle, beautiful scenary and beautiful people!

We have spent an unforgettable moment at Claude's place! The way the castle is renovated is just exceptional and his warm welcome made our stay just perfect.

You can visit the labyrinth or have a walk in the beautiful woods behind the castle where you discover a beautiful view of the area and a stunning apple tree field!

The castle was so cosy and the swimming pool so beautiful that it was hard to leave the house to go around :-)!
We just loved to stay sharing a nice glass of wine with Claude, listening to the story of the castle. The people who helped in the castle were very hepful to us at any time!

We recommand this place to all the people who enjoy life!

Room Tip: Perfect for families with children of all ages or groups of friends or anybody who enjoys the area...

“Relaxing break”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2010

As with the other reviews we all found the welcome and demenour of our host second to none. Situated in the Loir valley it is definitely worth seeing some of the area and you really don't need to travel far to be deep in the countryside. If we were making the trip down again i would probably fly into a local airport then hire a car, as this would be much easier that the trip from Paris we opted for.
The hotel is a mixture of rooms and apartments, i would personally plumb for the Roi d'arthur as ths was very well appointed and spacious. Unlike a chain hotel you need to approach with a much more open mind and enjoy the slight eccentricities, this will lead to a very enjoyable stay.
As you'd expect in France lot's of choices on where to eat, but if you do need to eat in, then the appartments have kitchens with hobs, ovens, grill and mircrowaves so you have all the options available.
Thoroughly enjoyable would definitely recommend.

“An idylic and historical Chateau with a wonderfully friendly owner”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2010

Claude, the charming and charasmatic owner, greeted us warmly on arrival and it was lovely to be offered an aperitif after such a long journey.He really makes you feel like you are a special friend staying in his home.The Chateau is full of history and character , we were welcome to come and go as we pleased.The room, Roi d'Arthur, was really a spacious apartment with everything you could need.It was a lovely touch to bring up logs in case we wanted a fire.The gardens were well tended, it's just a pity the weather was too cool to enjoy the pool.Breakfast was varied ( pastries, bread,homemade jams, eggs, fruit etc) and lovely each day- Claude even cooked us an omellette.A visit to the labyrinth is a must..The setting was very peaceful, but with plenty of great restaurants within an easy drive.The village has wineries, a Chateau, a glass maker and is within an hour of major sites such as Le Mans, Tours,Amboise & Chenoceau.It's a great place to relax off the beaten track.What makes this place really special is it's owner Claude who is so passionate and knowledgeable about the area and the history of his home.Gilda,Gerard and everyone we met at Claude's home could not have been kinder or more helpful.If you are looking to get away from it all and love history this is the place for you.
