Great value for money. Incredible place, food and service.

Given the luxurious feel of the place, it seemed strange not to have a fridge or safe in our loft accommodation.

The setting of this elegant hotel is idyllic with the remains of an old mill, and provides a very special dining experience. Resident pets were delightful, along with the little chickens strutting around. The swimming pool was very welcome.

We loved everything about the place

Hautegente is a magical place for my wife and I. The food is exquisite, the staff exceptional and the rooms buildings and grounds are like walking through the wardrobe into Narnia. If you want peace , tranquility and relaxation you will find it hard to beat..

Since we were in the shoulder season the local restaurants located close by were all closed and therefore it was a impossible to find dinner for the two nights the Manoir was not serving dinner without driving a distance.

It is a lovely spot in the countryside. Marie Josee was super and her staff was always very pleasant and helpful. We enjoyed one delicious meal at the Manoir but they were not serving the other two nights we were there. There is a wonderful relaxed feeling at the Manoir and it almost feels like you are a guest in a home. We spend two nights very cosy in front of the beautiful big fireplace which is always going.

The fact that we could only stay for one night :(

Manoir d'Hautegaunte is simply stunning. Beautiful location, peaceful scenery and fantastic garden. Incredibly elegant establishment. Mrs. Marie is so welcoming and kind. She assisted us with a late check-in despite the short notice. Looking forward to visiting again.

It rained when we were there. Not sure we can blame the owners

Setting by the river is unique, room brand new with respect for the centuries old building. Staff professional with an open friendly touch. Dinner was superb. I’m not this positive usually

Such a gorgeous property and beautiful settings. The bed was extremely comfortable and the food was very good. The service was impeccable.

The single bed was not comfortable at all. A new mattress would be highly recommended!

The pool and outdoor environments were stunning. The property is beautiful and pets are welcomed!

Breakfast was a bit disappointing. It was good, but unremarkable.

It’s a beautiful building set in a lovely riverside location. It was a relaxing and very dog friendly place. Peaceful and quiet.

A small daytime menu for drinks & snacks by the pool would have been nice.

Beautiful house, incredible food, friendly staff. A quiet & peaceful haven.

Despite agreeing to a time of arrival, there was no-one about and reception empty. I wandered the hotel and finally found someone in the kitchen who helped me to the room. This member of staff a young girl spoke politely and offered to help with my limited luggage. Aperatifs were accompanied by popcorn !!The menu was exceedingly limited only 75euro meals available, and the content (4 courses) given briefly. The two young staff were poorly trained and small dishes arrived with little or no explantion meanwhile The intelligent lass was designated to light candles around the boundary..not a good use of staff!! The 4 courses turned out to be about seven plates which was confusing.Breakfast was laid out in a buffet with nothing labelled , a choice of prunes turned out to be "prunes in Armagnac" and yogurts " caramel and vanilla" the smoked salmon was hoovered up by folk who suddenly appeared from the annex and were on some sort of BandB basis, to be fair this was replaced later. The young italian girl needed much training to meet any standard..to shout "eux/Eggs" at a guest was not acceptable in any language and much too late to be selected.

The hotel and surroundings are super. A beautiful renovated mill with very lovely gardens- all planted in white to stunning effect. The "Wanna be" Michelin star type meal was interesting, stylishly presented and delicious, and despite being lots of little dishes, satisfying.. The room was newly decorated and with a double aspect to the gardens very nice indeed. The swimming pool was a welcome bonus .A fire lit in the salon was a cheerful end to the day.

A magical place with warm and welcoming staff. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished as well as the hotel and its grounds. The food is a special, creative and delicious. The owner made our stay with all her advice and recommendations. Will be staying again!
