Château de Saint Loup

Saint-Loup-Lamaire

We spent 2 nights at this fabulous chateau, with a suite in the 11th century keep. Absolutely a brilliant experience.  Sophie treated us like family and allowed us to meander through the grounds, which were so peaceful and full of wildlife.  This was by far, our favourite chateau stay yet. The authenticity of the surroundings and the passion and love Sophie and her husband have for the estate, make it truly special. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Beautiful and personalized experience 

The rooms are worthy of a huge castle that the owners have been renovating for 31 years, in their juices, huge, clean, good bedding and small attentions. The park is rich and allows for beautiful walks. You feel free, you go where you want, beautiful walking routes and extensions of lawn for morning yoga. Full of things to see around: well-preserved stone veils, breaks on the banks of the Thouet, small restaurants and smiling and welcoming people.

A wonderful place to rest

My family , myself,my husband son ,daughter in law an two grandsons went far a walk around this beautiful French town as we where staying nearby. We came across this beautiful chateau. We seen a man at the gate with pictures of the château.we assumed he was advertising the château. As I was walking towards him , he started shouting NO .all looked around to see he was shouting at my grandson. He’s eight years old . My daughter in law asked what he had done and he said he is throwing a stone into the moat . It was a pebble. My daughter in law asked her son say sorry, which he did . He still continued to shout as he walked towards us . This terrified my grandchildren. He said that throwing pebbles leads to pushing the wall bricks into the moat . I said my 8 year old grandson clearly was not going to do that . This man clearly needs some education in talking to adults and children, if he wants some business in tourism. I have since found out this is the owner. Stay clear of this château if you have children. I’m sure this is a beautiful place . But we did not get a chance to look around as we where where terrified to go in.

Frightening

This Sunday in June 2022, there was no reception, I took the opportunity to make the free tour offered. The reception was warm, and after taking a tour of the property (it's big and beautiful) the owner offered me a visit to two rooms in the castle and two rooms in the dungeon. Over an hour and a half of visiting, I was filled with these discoveries and beauties. Thank you to the passionate owners for their spirit of sharing.

For a free tour of the Domaine and a guided tour of the interiors.

Passionate about period residences, we chose this castle for a two-day stay. Upon arrival, however, we were told that for us there was no place inside the castle, and they accompanied us to a building annexed to the property. If they had informed us at the time of booking, we would have looked for another accommodation. So, instead, by giving up the stay we would have also lost all the money. It must be said that on the weekend and in a pleasant resort thousands of kilometres from home, with children in tow, we had no choice but to accept or obtorto collo. Thus, we were assigned a large room, in which hygiene and cleanliness were decidedly scarce. No service, the room was not made up, no TV or other amenities. The stay turned out to be decidedly expensive. The courtesy of the innkeeper is of little use if you then sell something different from what you bought, and for the same price. We found dirt in the bed between the mattress and the four-poster cabinet. Who knows how long they haven't got their hands on it. A negative experience during a trip in which we stayed in a dozen castles. The tree-lined path is positive. In any case, it is personal opinion that similar structures are not suitable for housing for figures over € 200 per night as required in this case.

No no no

We stayed at the chateau to break up a journey  whilst driving down south.  .  The Chateau is steeped in history, charm and warmth.  Our hosts Charles Henri and Sophie, were welcoming, charming and so enthusiastic about the chateau, we even received a guided tour.  We have decided to return to the chateau when we are next in France, but for more time than or one night stopover.  What a find!

A magical place to stay

We stayed here on the way home from vacation, so unfortunately for only one day. It’s a fantastic place to stay where time seems to have stood still. Rooms are large and apart from electricity and a shower it looks how I imagine it looked when they build it. Very large garden where it’s great to walk around or just lay down and enjoy the peacefulness. It’s located in a charming small village where you can find a small supermarket and some restaurants. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. Dogs are welcome and ours had a great time too. I’m sure it would be a great place for kids too. Highly recommended!

A truly magical place.

The Chateau will blow you away with it's opulant facade. Charles and Sophie are wonderful hosts that practice thoughtful hospitality throughout the stay. Breakfast involves cheese, yogurt, fresh croissants, and excellent coffee as well as tea and an array of cereals and other breads. The rooms are charming and provide excellent views of the grounds. Make sure you plan extra time to tour the organgerie and pigeonry with Charles. Come prepared to use WiFi in the tower where breakfast is served, but not in the rooms.

Authentic Chateau

Very satisfied with this beautiful castle and the impressive dungeon, in which we spent the night. The exterior is very well maintained, and the castle is impressive, from the outside as well as from the inside. Congratulations to the owners who are marvelously maintaining this historical heritage. The dungeon room in which we slept transported us to another era, was very comfortable and incredibly spacious. The breakfast was also pleasant. We thank the owners for allowing us to come with our dog.

A night that takes you to another time

We spent a few days in the oldest part of the estate, in two different rooms. Both were beautiful, with amazing bathrooms. Sleeping in a canteen bed was a great experience. A time-saving experience guaranteed. The owners were really charming and caring for everyone. We had a nice meeting.
