    Honestly, I can't fault the place. We stayed on our route down to the south and we then booked it again for the journey back up. The 9 instead of 10 rating given because it was a heat wave and we were so hot in the room - we looked for a fan but couldn't find one (I need to say though that we also didn't ask for one, as it was late at night).

    The property is a real authentic French chateau and the decor is very fitting, the whole place has been lovingly renovated to a high quality. The welcome drink is something I have never had before at a B&B and I thought it was a nice touch. We really loved the location, it is a few minutes from a town, highly recommend booking a local restaurant in advance if you plan to dinner, we didn't and none had space. The breakfast was delightful; coffee, delicious fresh orange juice, fruit, meat, cheeses, bread, yoghurt, croissants. Really very good! Around the breakfast table everyone was super pleasant and it was a lovely atmosphere. We will be going back for sure.

    Elise inviting us to their beautiful place at arrival and showing us the property and our room made us feel welcome from the very first moment during our short stay at the château. We loved this quiet place, the spacey room and decorations with a well balanced mix of old and modern, the most comfortable large bed and the clean stylish new bathroom. A highlight of our entire, extended roadtrip through France and our stay at the château was the breakfast experience, sharing a large table with fellow guests and enjoying a most splendid and tasty variety of fresh local products. Thank you Elise and Pieter for having us for a (too) short moment - you are wonderful hosts!

    We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful manor house hotel. The owners renovated everything themselves, and it’s a perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort. Every detail has been decorated with so much love and care—you can truly see the passion and impeccable taste of the hosts. The breakfast, lovingly prepared by the hostess, was absolutely fantastic. The hotel is located in the peaceful countryside, yet you can reach the nearby town of Moulins in just 10 minutes. Moulins itself has a lot to offer and is definitely worth a visit. The manor is simply stunning, and I would return without hesitation.

    Issues with I get why

    This is a lovely old chateau which requires a great deal of care and the owner is truly invested in her customers needs. Her husband set up the table under the tree and we spent time visiting a dear friend with drinks and coffee. The room is spacious and authentic and the bathroom is very modern and very functional. The claw bath tube is very large and while I did not have the time to use it, it was a sight to behold. The only issue was a faux pas on the owner part, however, this was not the end of the world

    The place is great, a paradise of pastoral tranquility and of serenity, I am sure it would be difficult to find anything better, unless one travels to a remote island. Well, if you like people, movement and action, this is not the place for you, otherwise it is simply ideal for relaxing and leaving your problems behind! I have spent many holidays in France in similar B&B places, but the owners of Grand Lucay far surpass any I have seen before. Extremely kind and friendly as one rarely, very rarely finds. Thank you!

    It was a wonderful experience, staying in a French chateau in the beautiful wooded landscape of the Allier region. The chateau is framed by tall leafy trees, lawns and gardens. We stayed in a room with views, and woke up to birdsong. Our hosts made us very welcome. We had a sumptuous breakfast at a long table. The room was nicely furnished, with a large and comfortable bed.

    A particularly pleasant stay in the heart of the Bourbonnais region, whose gentle quintessence is so beautifully illustrated and palpable at the chateau of Grand Lucay. The reception of the hosts, the house and its environment are luminous, serene and pleasant. The breakfast will satisfy the gourmets who will find, if necessary, the redemption by walking through the 7 hectares of the park or by prolonging the stroll in the multiple paths which furrow the famous bocage of Bourbonnais, unless they prefer, if the weather lends itself to it, the siesta in the sun on the flowered lawn which extends to the foot of the residence The nights are as sweet and beautiful as the days and the gourmets will find within a small radius something to delight their taste buds. A very warm thank you to Elise and Pieter for their kindness and availability.
