Chateau de La Goujonnerie

What a stunning building, great location and so much to look at. The rooms were stunning, the pool was fab, Stefan and Ali were so accommodating with all our needs. Breakfast was delightful and I will definitely return. Just fantastic from start to finish.

An unplanned overnight stay that completely salvaged a horrific first day of our breakdown ridden drive to Portugal. From an hour away we called Stefan who squeezed us into the last available room in the Chateau and planned our evening (time to swim, shower and arrive at a wonderful local restaurant before final order cut off). This is a wonderful place to stay with lots of open space to do what you wish - play with children / dogs, pétanque, swim in the heated pool, sit and admire the unending view. Breakfast is a buffet with breads, fresh croissants / pain au chocolat, boiled eggs along with cereals and yoghurts in one of two dining rooms with large communal tables. The setting is beautiful. Easy to find when you know how - if the village church (100m away) is on your left you have driven past it. If it’s on your right, look left and find the stone wall, slow down and go past the first closed gate and pull in where the wall becomes conifer hedging. Press the buzzer for the large black iron gates to be opened for you. It’s worth coming down the driveway at night for the enchanting lighting display. This was a one hour diversion for us and totally worth it. Can’t wait to return for a longer weekend break.

Stayed three nights with my teenage daughters. This is a fabulous place and we wish we had booked for longer. Stefan has created a unique place to stay, wonderfully and eclectically decorated. Our rooms on the top floor of the house were beautiful, comfortable and had stunning views. Stefan and Julie were incredibly welcoming and helpful, and the whole environment is relaxed and friendly. The pool and grounds were a treat. Dog lovers will enjoy meeting the resident hounds and being able to take their own dogs there too. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Stayed here twice in 2021. Absolutely loved it and cannot fault. The owner, Stefan was extremely helpful and kindly organised dinner booking for us (we were arriving horribly late) in nearby Vouvant (a must visit). We stayed in the Windmill room on each occasion ( loved it) and woke up to stunning view over the countryside. We had access to the breakfast area as well as our own lounge kitchen. The very large lounge in the castle itself was full of the most eclectic and enjoyable art/ nature exhibitions. Julie and the team sorted out a great breakfast for us. Really enjoyed. Be there to see the sunrises and sunsets. Wonderful Stefan and team. Fantastic. Hope to see you again soon. Paul and Vivien

We had a wonderful stay at this incredible property. Stefan and the ladies were absolutely lovely. It's not often one gets to stay at such a stunningly beautiful property. If you're thinking of staying here, don't even hesitate.

Amazing beautiful chateau, crammed with quirky antiques Beautiful grounds and pool Helpful staff A massive find and worth double the money

Very welcoming, accommodating and willing to do everything to make our stay memorable and enjoyable. The accompanied tour around the chateau was very interesting indeed. Every room has been dressed superbly, full of unusual and interesting objects. Highly recommended, we will go back.

Amazing
