    Small swimming pool that should not be shared with children if we are talking about ‘peacefulness’ and ‘tranquility’. More lounge chairs around the pool would help too.

    Excellent setting. Friendly staff and comfortable bedroom. A wonderful restaurant with beautiful view, amazing atmosphere, very polite & professional staff and exquisite cuisine!

    Maybe the breakfast could have been refilled more quickly - felt like it ran out too fast for the amount of people dining.

    The grounds were beautiful, I slept fantastically and lake offered a stunning view out of room window. A diversity of trees and plants populating the well-kept garden. The pool entertained the children. The dinner at the restaurant was exquisite.

    we’ve stayed here several times before iand will probably stay again in the future but unfortunately this time i was very disappointed in the room and felt it was not up to their normal standard , which was a shame .

    Lovely hotel in a beautiful setting .Very comfortable beds and pillows . If you ask they will make you a very nice platter of cheeses and meats and bread etc for a very affordable price .

    We were unable to put our drinks in the bar on our room tab, then discovered they had been added, even though we had paid for them separately. But the receptionist sorted it all out and explained that the software in the dining room hadn't yet been installed. There was also a large coach party staying at the hotel at the same time and it was a bit confusing.

    The staff were very helpful. Our room was very comfortable and the food in the dining room was excellent. The atmosphere was really tranquil too.

    Not using what they already have to highest potential. No music on in the bar area before dinner. Very lack lustre atmosphere for a Friday night. No fires lit in the stunning fireplaces. Staff need more training. Why face dining tables directly to windows in the evening when it is completely dark outside. Nothing to look at expect your reflection. Very odd! Shower power was dismally weak and if you’re taller than 5ft 11 then you will hit your head in showerhead! No shelf in the shower for your own products.

    Beautiful property and location. Nice welcome. Excellent chef and great wine list.

    Really nice place and a great experience, but if I have to pick something I would say that scrambled eggs at breakfast looked terrible and industrial. There's a bathrobe in a room but no slippers.

    Excellent property, beautiful grounds, historic stone house building, very nice room. We booked a comfort room and we were allocated a room with direct access to the garden. Really special. The room was spacious, nicely decorated in a traditional style. Bed was comfortable (a bit too stiff in my opinion but still comfortable), bathroom was decent and the water kettle with quality tea bags was a very nice treat (after all it's north west France, most of the year it's pretty cold and a tea is always nice to conclude the day). There's a restaurant at the hotel, it is a michelin recommended restaurant. We had dinner there on the first night. We thought it was just OK. All very proper but it could have been better (food wise). Breakfast was good, nice friendly service. Parking next to the room was very comfortable. We booked 1 hour spa - which costs 20 Euros per person. It nice to have the spa for yourself, dry and wet sauna and a small jacuzzi. It was nice after a day sight seeing to warm up before dinner time. Service was friendly and professional. All staff members were extremely nice and responsive before and during our stay. Location - it's a real country side place, nothing to do around. Beautiful grounds and nature but quite remote and there's literally no where to eat or drink in the vicinity of the hotel. To get to Saint Malo and Dinard count a 30 minutes drive. It is not that close. To Mont Saint Michel (go there early morning or later in the afternoon to avoid to hordes of tourists) is about 45 minutes drive. We visited Avranches after Mont Saint Michel, just a town, beautiful, not touristy and with beautiful botanic garden and a cathedral.

    Swimming pool could be heated more as 24 degrees is really cold especially when weather is not super nice.

    Really nice place, very quiet with an excellent restaurant. Rooms are spacious, staff is very friendly and giving nice recommendations for visits or restaurants. The restaurant is a gastronomy one where they offered me a gluten free menu with excellent bread ! Also for breakfast they did accommodate my gluten intolerance.

    We had to carry two heavy suitcases up the stairs. Perhaps you should highlight the fact there is no lift. We were disappointed not to use the spa. The jacuzzi was broken, so it didn't seem worth while (especially with it being too cold to use the outdoor pool)

    The food was wonderful and the wine-pairings were spot on. The server / sommelier really made the evening meal a wonderful experience.

    Minibar/fridge would be nice to keep drinks cool. Otherwise just beautiful, loved my stay.

    Historic building surrounded by beautiful forests. Observes a beaver, kingfisher and herons right at the lake in front of the hotel. Great atmosphere and good breakfast, though some vegetables would be nice.

    The staff was extremely friendly and worked hard but the place was understaffed. The WiFi kept dropping out. Whilst the other was clean and tidy, it was in some parts dated, which is not reflective of the pictures in Booking and is a little misleading for the price charged.

    The location and the pool. Breakfast was also good!

    We really liked the hotel and would stay again if we wanted to be in that part of France. See above for what we were not thrilled with ie the service in the restaurant. There seemed to be one waitress and a trainee, the main waitress needed to delegate some tasks so that she could fulfil her tasks like ensuring that the wine was served at the right time and not missing out the 'petits fours'.

    The room was lovely. Beautiful view over the gardens. Very comfortable bed and good shower. Very peaceful place to stay. Restaurant was good we had the 5 course tasting menu. The service was very friendly but slightly erratic, things were missed. I wouldn't do the wine pairing again as the wine was not always served with the food it was meant to be with. Breakfast was good, usual meats, cheese and fish.

    The room was very comfortable and all the facilities you would expect. the restaurant was a great dining experience with wines chosen to go with each course. Would recommend booking the restaurant when booking then room to avoid disappointment. Great choice/selection for breakfast. I would recommend this Hotel and its location for a quite break any time.

    No WiFi in our room and bad phone reception generally in the area. Could do with some boosters around the building..especially with the thick stone walls.

    Location was beautiful, in the countryside but half hour drive to all major places to see. The Abbey was really beautiful and the grounds super.

    Due to our booking error we arrived a month early but the staff were charming and extremely helpful in changing our reservation and giving us early access to our room to dress for an afternoon wedding. Hotel is in a lovely building, beautifully situated in a natural environment and staffed by a delightful team. Novel use of high quality pre-prepared food enabled the receptionist to quickly and efficiently provide an excellent light meal to suit our time schedule.
