Betz-le-Chateau Castle Hotels

"Excellent logement propre, convivial et super calme avec de bons matelas "

"We stayed at Walnut Lodge from 22nd to 29th July 2025 while attending a wedding at a nearby château just 5 minutes away—and we couldn’t have chosen a better place. The location was absolutely ideal, tucked away in a peaceful setting yet just 10 minutes from La Roche-Posay, home to an incredible spa, casino, and plenty of local shops and restaurants serving fantastic food.There’s also a lovely market held twice a week that’s well worth a visit.Our hosts, Lisa and Bryan, were exceptional from start to finish. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their beautiful home and gîtes—set against a stunning backdrop—were truly a sight for sore eyes. The pool was perfect (when the rain held off!), and what really made our stay extra special was their offer to transport us to and from the wedding, which was a massive help and so appreciated.And of course, we can’t forget Frankie, their friendly French Bulldog, who greeted us with a wag and a warm welcome every time we returned.If you’re looking for a peaceful, unique, and welcoming experience in the French countryside, we’d recommend Lisa and Bryan’s Walnut Lodge again and again. From the comfort and charm of the property to the kindness and hospitality of our hosts, we truly couldn’t fault our stay.Top tip: Make sure you have a car to explore the surrounding area with ease.– Michael & Jade"

"A very warm welcome, a super comfortable room, magnificent evening meal and perfect breakfast. What more can we say."

"We were very pleased with our suite. It was clean, the air conditioning worked well. Plenty of room for our dog plus a balcony. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Our dinner in the restaurant was superb and breakfast excellent. We would certainly stay again."

"Great location close to the centre of the town. The buffet breakfast was good and had plenty to choose from savoury and sweet. Our room with kitchenette was lovely and, for me, the pool was the icing on the cake as I love to swim."

"Excellent! "

"Quiet room air conditioned. breakfast good, Staff helpful, restaurant nearby was excellent. No electric local charging point that was compatible with UK credit card was a problem and required travelling to Tours to recharge vehicle."

"We have enjoyed a wonderful holiday staying for two weeks in this lovely gite. The property is beautifully restored and has everything needed for comfortable living. The photographs do not do the property justice as it is much nicer than shown, with a lovely shower room and separate toilet facilities and lovely shady areas to sit all around.The swimming pool is beautiful - chest height throughout with easy access steps and new quality sun beds and shades.Our hosts were lovely and provided us with gifts of fresh eggs and produce from their garden.We enjoyed exploring local towns and villages where there are many colourful markets and lovely places for coffee and lunch.The whole area is very tranquil and the gite is in an incredibly peaceful spot.Thank you to our hosts - we hope to return next year."

"We loved the warm welcome and the clean, quiet, big room. The breakfast is very good and the area around the little pond is beautiful. "
