Luxury Lakeside Chateau Castle in Loire Valley, Island, Pool - Holidays and Weddings Destination Reviews

Breathtaking Chateau & Stellar Service!!!

There are no words to describe the beauty and charm of Chateau Allure Du Lac. The chateau is breathtaking and the service we experienced before during and after our stay would rival the finest hotels. My childhood dreams of living in a castle have been fulfilled and I was lucky enough to be a real life princess (or at last treated like one). My family and I visited the chateau in September for 3 days for my wedding and we have more than enough beautiful memories and photos to last us lifetime. When we arrived we were warmly greeted with french pastries and refreshments and given a complete tour of the grounds. The chateau is absolutely stunning and every single room has been decorated and restored to perfection. Each room has a fun theme, with the underlying detail being luxury!!! The sheets and towels were in spectacular condition and the beds were beyond comfortable. The inside of the chateau was marvelous, but it was the outside that really made your jaw drop. The lush trees that scattered the acres of parkland left us in awe, and the lake gave us chills it was so beautiful. I can’t imagine the upkeep on the chateau as it is massive but the staff makes it seem effortless and they always have a smile on their faces.
Speaking of the staff, I must begin with how spectral the service is! Susy the owner is the most enchanting woman I have ever met. Planning a wedding in a foreign country can be very difficult, but Susy helped me every step of the way. She patiently answered every email with great detail and frequently checked in with me via phone and email to make sure I didn’t have any questions. At the chateau she never ceased to amaze me as she waltzed around the chateau sharing precious memories and assuring me I would have the wedding of my dreams. Susy is not the only bright star in the group as Kitty and Doug were there to help with all of the last minute details and keep everyone in a chipper mood. I will miss their warm smiles, and never forget the moment when Doug provided a blessing for us within the chateau’s chapel.
Lastly, for the cherry on top I must praise the divine food. We chose to cater 3 of our meals at the chateau and each meal was comparable to one you would receive at a five star restaurant. My friends and family are still wildly raving about the delicious meals that we were served. The only downside of having such amazing provisions is I have a lot to live up to as my now husband has tasted some of the finest food in France!
