Chateau de la Lande

As I had been following along with the Chateau Diaries since it began some years ago, I was beyond excited to actually have the opportunity to stay in the chateau and meet the inhabitants! Stephanie and Phillip were absolutely charming hosts and chatted freely to all of the guests. Nati was friendly, attentive and greeted us warmly upon our arrival. (A bonus was the lovely Armoury collecting us from nearby Chateauroux station)! The rooms, the grounds, the chapel, the woods, the potager .... the list goes on were all wonderful. However the most magical experience was just feeling the genuine happiness and love that lives within the walls of this chateau. Merci beaucoup to all, and thank you for the birthday song and candle at dinner:))

We have returned from an amazing two night stay at Chateau de Lalande, a long awaited three year wait due to Covid but, finally it happened. We are eternally grateful to Natalia for keeping our booking safe each year and allowing us to re book each time. The chateau experience was everything we thought it would be and more, just beautiful, so surreal and we were made to feel at home straight away with a very warm welcome. Meeting Stephanie, Philip, Natalia, Amaury, Maria and the rest of the team was very special, they are all such kind and lovely people. Maria made us a special three course dinner on one of our evenings and we all agreed that it was the best meal we had eaten during our holiday, the starter was incredible, the duck main course was cooked beautifully, the final course of homemade lavender madeleines and ice cream were divine so, thank you Maria. We could instantly see why Stephanie fell in love with Lalande as it is truly exquisite, so warm and enchanting, a real fairy tale Chateau. Our rooms the Chambre Perse and Chambre des Oiseaux were clean, comfortable and spacious, everything we could have asked for and more (and of course Tea). The morning breakfast and the first evening cheese board were also excellent. We were told that Stephanie is the best host and that was true. We hope to be able to come again and to see all the new changes being made especially the new Grand Salon. Thank you Stephanie for opening up your home.

Visited for a birthday treat for my wife and it couldn't have been better. The chateau is just as enchanting as seen on TV. Stephanie and the staff are not only very efficient but very friendly, mixing with the guests who are treated as friends rather than clients. In a word: Superb Mike Sale, UK

Je rejoins l'avis précèdent chateau surfait, les prix sont beaucoup trop cher pour les prestations proposées. La gentillesse et la notoriété télévisuelle ne justifie pas le prix exorbitant. Ralentissez, sans vous arrêter !!!!!!!!!!!
