Resort style hotel on the grounds of the Chantilly Chateau. Part of the resort complex was the chateau laundry with some of the old mechanicals still in place. Lovely setting in the woods with the chateau itself about 3 miles away from the hotel. Our room was in the modern building with a private terrace.

Beautiful old chateau converted to guest house. LOVELY! Best coffee machine on our trip!

GREAT location inside the old city walls in St. Malo! Room was small, but adequate.

VERY small room with bunk bed. It was adequate, but just barely. The restaurant was very good.

What a LOVELY setting - we upgraded to a direct ocean view. We felt like we were on a cruise!

Beautiful old (1290 AD) lodge nicely updated! This hotel is in a quiet little village with a beautiful church overlooking the hotel.

Room was very small, but adequate for a single night. Restaurant was good.

VERY helpful staff and beautiful room! Stairs could be challenging for some, but the location is incredible adjacent to the cathedral. We enjoyed the restaurant as well.

This was my FAVORITE tour - Beautiful weather, beautiful country side, interesting information about the area AND a yummy picnic with the lovely items we picked up along the way!

As the child of a career Army officer, the D-Day Beaches were a must do! However, it was not what I expected and I probably would have preferred a different day trip. The most impressive part of the trip was probably the German Cemetery - our group was one of two groups there, so it was not crowded as the other sites were later in the day.

Mont Saint Michel was an incredible place! It was busy, but we were able to see all we could. My husband did not feel up to going all the way up into the cathedral, but the town and the walls were amazing despite the crowds.

Samuel was GREAT on our walking tour of St. Malo. The day was lovely! He provided good context for this city which I was not familiar with. After our tour with Samuel, we were able to navigate the city easily. I especially enjoyed touring the old part of the city with the half-timber houses and the stain glassed galleries.

Lovely tour of Winchester with David. We loved- walking with the city wall on one side and the river on the other - peaceful, green and lush! He shared many interesting tidbits of early English history - my favorite part! The cathedral was beautiful! The guildhall was somewhat of a letdown (marketing 15th -16th century style was still cheesy), although the ruins which surround it were beautiful!

Remarkable conversion of the Chateau's mainteance complex into a hotel. This is a multiple building conversion with lovely modern rooms. Staff weas friendly and helpful. Food was good. This has the air of a conference center but works well for just staying. It's located beyond walking distance to Chantilly, so you'll need to get rides if you doin't have a car. But the staff was helpful in arranging that.

This is a unique conversion on the edge of Bayeux. It looks like a wealthy merchant's house from the 19th century and it has gorgeous gardens in the back. We stayed in the family suite, and not a standard room, so my comments may not apply to all. The rooms have a old aristocracy feel but the bathroom is completely updated and modern. The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent.

Lovely hotel inside the walls in St. Malo. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. You couldn't find a better base for exploring this beauritful walled city.

This is an amazing place. We stayed in an oceanside room - these are built into the cliff face below the main hotel. All we could see were the sea and the headlands. Rooms were plenty big for 2. The restaurant was excellent for Breakfast and Dinner. The location is brilliant for exploring Cornwall and THE VIEW!!!

Classic English Inn on the Cathedral Square in Winchester. You could not find a better place to explore Winchester from. The staff were kind and helpful. The restaurant was very good for both breakfast and dinner. It is in the old downtown, so if you are driving, don't have too big a car.

This was a great half day tour of St. Malo. Samuel, our guide, was well informed, personable and adapted the tour to our interests and capabilities.

David our guide was lovely and knowledgeable. He shaped the itinerary to our interests and the pace to our requirements. Couldn't imagine a better half day in Winchester.
