Wonderful stay

Fantastic property on beautiful grounds. Incredibly charming property that feels very unique and special. Perfectly equipped for our stay. Our 1 year old had a great time exploring. Jacques was a wonderful host and we would happily stay again.

Amazing

It's hard to describe how magical this castle is! We just spent a very peaceful week enjoying a wonderful part of France that has almost too much to do/see! Jaques was a great host who was helpful and very happy to advise and help with any query or advice on anything we asked. He also has a very cute dog Gabon who we are missing already... Can't fault anything about this holiday and we are looking forward to our next visit hopefully next year!

Superbe séjour

Nous avons passés un excellent séjour au château du Thenissey. L'hébergement offre une réelle évasion ainsi qu'un bon confort. Les paysages environnant sont vraiment magnifiques et le châtelain est très agréable et fait tout pour que ses hôtes soient bien. C'est avec plaisir que nous reviendrons une fois prochaine !

14th century castle with character

A wonderful stay on the estate, accommodated within the the original 14th century chateau whilst looking across to the later 18th century chateau. Jacques was very friendly and generous. He kindly spent much of his time answering our questions about the history of the estate and gave us a tour. He is a perfect host. This was a memorable experience and is not the usual type of holiday accomodation. Very special.
