This was our first stay at a ‘chateau’ and it was amazing. The historical mansion filled with antiques was magnificent. The grounds were expansive and were well kept. Hospitality by the family was heartwarming. The rooms were well appointed , spacious and very comfortable. Please know, to get around, one does need a car. Our feeling is that we will be visiting more chateaus in the future.

A fascinating opportunity to stay in a chateau that has been in the same family for over 400 years, and to meet and share in their lives and history. Magnificent accommodation and spacious grounds.

This place is a must stay for anyone. Don't be like me and only book one night. You'll regret not staying there for two nights. It is gorgeous and so clean. The host was very welcoming and kind. The history of the home is very interesting. The rooms are very large and comfortable. You have access to sitting rooms and a bar where you can enjoy a glass a wine or two in the evening. The property around the home is gorgeous and very walkable. I loved everything about this place and would reccommend it to anyone.

We adored our stay at the amazing Chateau de la Villedubois. We had the incredible room called La Gouvernante, with a king bed. It is even better than the photos, as they have added cozy floor rugs and more furniture. The bathtub has been replaced with a fabulous walk-in shower with rainfall head. The tile work is a gorgeous green, matching the floors and the carpet in the room. The room has sunny French provincial wallpaper in yellow and it is happy, not overpowering, very classic in feel. The comfortable bed was made with excellent linens and individual duvets. Open those large windows and you get a fresh breeze and lovely views over the grounds, park and lake. The rest of the property is equally stunning, and very well cared for. The wonderful family that lives here was very warm and welcoming. I love how they keep this chateau vibrant and alive with their presence. Amelie and Al were gracious hosts and gave us a lovely orientation as well as very good information about the surrounding areas to visit. The Countess was also present and gave us great advice about visiting St Malo and Dinan, which were an easy day drive away. Breakfast was wonderful! It was shared with the other guests at a large table set with French porcelain in red toile designs.Amelie has sourced the best croissants in all of France - so fresh and buttery! Her flan was delicious and the melon was ripe and sweet. We lingered long at the table, enjoying the repast and the company. Such wonderfulness!

A true chateau recently opened as a B&B by the daughter of count and countess, who are still in residence. The entire setting could not be more lovely. Elegant large bedrooms and breakfasts fit for nobility, all at a very reasonable price. Could not recommend it more highly!

Parenthèse enchantée !
Nous avons été choyés par nos hôtes qui sont d’une extrême prévenance. Le château nous transporte au XIXeme siècle avec le confort du XXIeme siècle. Les salles de bain sont entièrement rénovées tout en respectant le style du château. La literie est d’un grand confort, le petit déjeuner est de grande qualité avec des produits frais et des pâtisseries maison. Cerise sur le gâteau, le parc est d’une splendeur incroyable avec un étang, des petits ponts et des arbres pluri-centenaires qui vous accueillent en leur sein : cèdres du Liban, chênes, séquoia… En un mot, n’hésitez pas à y passer quelques jours pour un apaisement total ! Merci à Émilia et ses aïeux 😉 d’avoir préservé ce château magnifique depuis plusieurs siècles.

This is the second time that we came back to Villedubois, after being extremely impressed by the quality of our first stay in 2020. This time was no different. The beauty of the property, the warmth of the hosts and the excellent breakfast service (literally, fit for a king!) remain unchanged. We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet retreat in Brittany. The chateau is also within 15 minutes if three golf courses and less than 20 minutes away from the heart of Rennes, with its many wonderful restaurants.

Einzigartiger Wohlfühlaufenthalt im wunderschönen Schloss Das Château: Welch wundervolle Anlage! Ein Schmuckstück mit weitläufiger Parkanlage, perfekt für einen ruhig romantischen Aufenthalt! Perfekt gelegen, unweit von der schönen Stadt Rennes, jeweils knapp 1 Stunde Fahrt zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten im Norden (z. B. St. Malo) und Süden (z. B. Vannes) der Bretagne Die Zimmer: Ein historisches Schloss, welches renoviert worden ist unter Beibehaltung des typischen „Schloss Charmes“ - hochwertige Ausstattung von Mobiliar bis hin zu den Bettwaren, Gestaltung mit Liebe zum Detail. Jedes Zimmer ist individuell gestaltet und verfügt über alle Annehmlichkeiten. Zusätzlich zur Nutzung standen der Wohn-und Essbereich, in dem ein exzellentes Frühstück serviert wird Der Flair: Eine wunderbare, freundliche, zuvorkommende Familie, die uns herzlich als Gäste begrüßte. Emilia tat alles, um den Aufenthalt perfekt zu machen! Das Frühstück mit einer riesigen Auswahl war exzellent: Croissant, Baguette, variierende Spezialitäten in der Bretagne, frisch aus dem Backofen, Frischgepresster Orangensaft, etc. bei klassischer Hintergrundmusik, ein perfekter Start in den Tag. Wir danken Emilia und Ihrer Familie für diesen einzigartigen Aufenthalt - vielen Dank für die Gastfreundschaft, die Mühe, die vielen Tipps für Touren und Aktivitäten.

Lors de notre voyage entre la presqu'ile de Crozon et Tours, nous voulions faire une étape près de Rennes pour visiter la foret de Brocéliandre. L'accueil par la propriétaire fut chaleureux et simple, nous avions l'impression diffuse de faire partie de la famille comme des cousins éloignés. Le charme surrané de la décoration de la chambre, le délicieux petit déjeuner servi dans une salle à manger de caractère avec une vaisselle de grande qualité nous ont marqué. Nous reviendrons.

L’authenticité du Château de la Villedubois
Nous sommes arrivés dans un cadre magnifique, à l’abri des regards et où nous avons eu un accueil chaleureux. Les maîtres de maison sont simples, agréables et à l’ecoute de leurs clients. Convivialité, partage, plaisirs et confort sont au rendez-vous. Une adresse à retenir dans les environs de Rennes pour tous ceux qui recherchent l’authenticité. Nous y reviendrons avec grand plaisir.
