Chateau de la Villedubois

We can't recommend this wonderful château highly enough. From the moment we arrived, we felt so much at home. There was a wonderful and warm welcome from the splendid châtelaine, and then we fell into the hands of her excellent daughter, Emilia, who keeps this wonderful family home up to a top-notch standard. We stayed in the beautiful and large Le Maître de Brocéliande room, which is gloriously decorated (just loved the wall-paper), and with a really comfortable bed and luxurious bathroom. Everything is done to the highest of standards, including a breakfast boasting all the most delicious patisserie as well as a regional speciality, le far breton. However, the most lovely thing of all is how civilised the whole place is. It cannot be easy opening your house to strangers, but I really sense that Emilia and her family really know how to make this work. We were also extremely grateful for being directed to an excellent local restaurant (not easy on a Monday night in provincial France). Our only sadness is that we were only able to stay one night, but that is a problem that is easily rectifiable, as we will certainly be back! The area boasts lots of interesting features and remains relatively undiscovered, so there is a major pretext for a return visit, although to be fair, we'd want to be back just to stay at this château (the other rooms look magnificent too). We wholeheartedly want to spread the word about this divine place, so that others can appreciate the kind of 'accueil' that Emilia offers.

My boyfriend and I had a fantastic stay at the Château de la Villedubois - we didn’t want to leave! Emilia and Allard are lovely hosts and very welcoming. Our room was cozy and spacious and the breakfast was excellent. The entire château is beautifully renovated with a magnificent attention to detail and it’s surrounded by an idyllic garden. Château de la Villedubois is a very special place and a must for your next trip to Brittany.

Highest recommendations. Family owned and run and it shows. History abounds around every corner here. Rooms are spacious and well appointed. Multiple relaxing sitting rooms. Be sure to walk the lovely grounds and admire the pond. This place is special. We be back!

A memorable stay with lovely hosts. The place has an incredible sense of history and very impressive grounds; perfect for a stroll to soak in the atmosphere. Beautiful rooms and much thought put behind the breakfast which had local delicacies. I will remember this stay (some places you just forget) and we will definitely return.
