Interesting place to stay

After staying in a variety of places prior to our arrival it would not be fair to compare. Very disappointed that there were no same day dinner reservations taken upon arrival although we arrived in early afternoon. No knowledge about local places or recommendations for us to go.

Charming, peaceful, private

A perfect place to relax. Our room, (#1) was large, decorated nicely, clean and had a nice view over the garden. We loved to relax in the traditional tea room. The house has been restored recently and retains the original charm I'm sure the 1890's builder would have approved of. The garden has several spots to sit in privacy and the pool is large enough to do laps. There are plenty of lounges pool side so no need to claim a space early. The breakfast included wonderful breads, cheese, fruit and meats was served on tables with fresh linens and under groomed mulberry trees to the sound of morning doves cooing. Amazing. The BBQ offered on our last night with beef, pork, sausage, chicken and grilled vegetables was excellent. The staff was very professional, helpful and friendly. Recommendations for local restaurants, beaches and downtown parking were spot on. The rooms have no AC which might bother some but for us it was enjoyable even though the temperatures reached the upper 80's F each night. We opened the windows and let the breeze keep us cool as others have done since it was originally built. It felt very natural.
The neighborhood is a nice place to walk in. Several golf courses are near by as well as a few good restaurants.
I would not hesitate to recommend La Cheneraie.

A perfect little place to stay

I stayed here with friends for two nights, and after a couple of days in a larger city with a lot of people and more action-this was the perfect place to arrive; peaceful and beautiful. My shoulders went down immediately. The building and the surrounding garden/pool area are beautiful, and the garden has many different places to sit in the sun or in the shadow. The service and the welcome was really good; excellent and also relaxed and informal in a way. They made us feel like home. It never felt crowded because of the small amount of rooms, and the rooms were fine; good bed, wonderful, large windows with great view, nice bathroom. No air con, but with the fan and the windows it worked all right. The swimming pool area was great, and the breakfast was good. We also ordered some picnic-baskets to eat in the garden-and I would really recommend that! It was a bit far away to the city/beach, but it was not a problem. The hotel has bikes, there is a bus nearby, and it was easy to get a taxi. I had great expectations before this stay-and it was even better. I really loved this hotel, and look forward to come back one day.

Beautiful hotel

I have just returned from a long weekend here with my extended family and had a fantastic time. The hotel lives up to its name and is very romantic and set in idyllic surroundings in the hills overlooking the mountains and Coast. The rooms are comfortable and clean and the hotel itself is beautifully decorated with an old English tea room style which made us feel right at home. The pool and grounds were gorgeous with flowers and fountains and with only 10 rooms in the hotel we usually had the pool to ourselves. All staff members we met were so friendly and welcoming and really went out of their way to make our stay special. Only very small issue which stopped a five star rating was the lack of well functioning air con which was unbearable in the heatwave that took place while we were there but a large fan was put in our room and with the balcony window open this was much better. Would definitely recommend this hotel - you need a car to visit and get around but well worth the trip. Hope we come back here one day as we have made wonderful memories of our stay here. Thanks!

Nice small hotel in beautiful surroundings. Friendly hostess. Amazing breakfast.
Room was very light and airy with seaview.
Only backdraw was absence of the airco, since it was very hot.
Definately a place to return to. ..
