Guestbook

This Chateau is off the charts everything anyone could dream off. To celebrate my 60th birthday me and 5 of my girlfriends spent eight glorious enchanting days here. I had to pinch myself a few times to make sure I wasn’t dreaming. The property is aprx. 13 acres and then spans several more acres that they rent out to farmers for cattle grazing. The house inside is right out of the “Pride and Prejudice” movie...I kept expecting Mr. Darcy to materialize! There are bikes (a vast array in many sizes) on the property for which we took advantage of biking to the ocean and the small village of Barfleur while stopping to pick blackberries on the way back. There is a also a tennis court on the property! The attendants Danielle and Corinne were extremely helpful and were so personable and fun. They would arrive in the morning to check on us and ask if we needed anything...fresh towels or our rooms cleaned. Any questions we had were happily answered which made our trip around the area even more enjoyable. We hired Corinne to Chef for us a couple of nights and I can’t tell you how good everything was. I took pictures so I could cook her dishes at home! The beautiful Countess Stephanie came one night to meet all of us. What a wonderful thoughtful thing to do and so meaningful. It was also exciting to learn about Alexis de Tocqueville who was best known for his works “Democracy in America and “The Old Regime” also “Revolution”. To think that we were actually staying in his house was truly amazing! This is a bucket list trip people! I’m planning on going back again for I so so miss it!!

Nous avons fait un séjour merveilleux en famille dans cette belle tour du château de Tocqueville. Très bon accueil, location extrêmement confortable, très bel environnement, calme assuré. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir

A special place whether you are touring or just relaxing. Enjoy a wonderful breakfast. The property is well appointed and the beds were so comfortable.

Communication great!

Expect that you are remote, but that’s the charm. Danielle made us feel at home and was a wealth of knowledge on the history and local.

Especially loved Honfleur, Mont St Michele and Rouen

ppartement superbement meublé, décoré avec un goût remarquable ; parfaitement équipé. L'accueil est irréprochable à tous points de vue. La campagne environnante, très jolie ; on va à la mer à pieds en longeant des champs de navets, de laitues, de choux… jusque sur la plage. L'endroit est vraiment attachant. Séjour calme et reposant. (Ravitaillement aisé, à moins de dix minutes de voiture.) On en deviendra facilement inconditionnel.
