I loved everything. It was simply amazing and FAR exceeded expectations - from the warm welcome with the spontaneous offer of a much needed beer after my journey, via the impeccable room and delicious home cooking (including the opportunity to sample my very first non industrial crumpet ;-). The value for money has to be experienced to be believed.

Nothing but did wish we had stayed longer.

Loved our country stay here...felt like we were treated like kings and queens. Relaxing ambience, comfortable luxurious beds and delicious, tasty well presented dinner and breakfast.

Nothing at all.

Our communications and welcome were 100 % Our rooms were spacious and well equipped. All catering was truly off the scale exceptional. Way beyond what we hoped for. Would strongly advise taking the evening meal option. Home cooking at its very best, with attentive service, in a wonderful ambience. Breakfast can consist of home made breads , eggs from the hens, and a wide choice of specialities, all freshly made, The owner sends you an App from which you choose what you would like, from a varied list. We cant wait to return to Haras de la Tour, we felt truly welcomed and pampered. Its sets the standard for which others should aspire to. Even in February, we had a delightful stay.

Exceptionally charming, great 5-star breakfast, and Liz is the most caring, considerate and professional host that I've met. I guess this corner of paradise must exceed the expectation of most of the guests.

A quiet location in rolling French countryside - very quiet and peaceful. The room was lovely and very comfortable. Excellent breakfast and lovely evening meal. A very relaxing stay.

One bed was comfortable but the second was slightly lumpy. Shower water sprays onto the floor which seems to be a common problem in France…but nothing to really worry about.

A lovely grand renovated farm house in the countryside. We stayed in a twin room with ensuite. The highlight was the homemade breakfast in a stately dining room with a delicious array of home baked breads, freshly laid eggs and other treats.

Breakfast and Dinner - Delicious, good variety and plenty of it. Very nice and friendly people. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

The hosts had a slight problem with the heating which was a temporary situation, but we were provided with all the necessary for a cosy environment, including a log fire. It was one of the coldest nights of the year, but we were warm and very comfortable.

The location is slightly out of way, which was to our liking, and very quiet. The accommodation in a farmyard type setting was lovely. Everything thought through, and our host Carole was delightful, nothing was too much trouble. Everything was very comfortable, and it is a lovely property. As a bonus, the night time view of the stars was outstanding. Dinner and breakfast were great, so very happy with our stay.

Nothing, everything was perfect.

We arrived and were offered a glass of rosé wine and a tour of the marvellous hens and quails kept for their eggs and who lived in beautifully made pens. We'd booked dinner and were not disappointed with the delicious slow cooked duck and a vegetable quiche for the vegetarian among us, followed by sticky ginger pudding with cream - exceptional. Breakfast was just a good with a lot of choice which included lovely brown shelled eggs and home made bread, cheese and fruit. The rooms were charming with large shuttered windows (we had the Tower room), comfortable beds and spotlessly clean, well-quipped bathrooms.

It can be a bit tricky to find Ancien Haras de la Tour (“Haras”), especially at night, but your effort will be richly rewarded. We arrived in the latter part of a month-long trip to the Bordeaux/Aquitaine area in a predictable state of dishevelment. Carol immediately offered the use of their washer and a drying rack to deal with the mass of clothes in our bags in need of a proper washing, a very welcome offer. Our suite was exceptionally spacious and tastefully decorated, impressively so for an 11th? century building, with what my husband called the “Ferrari of showers,” the most satisfying shower during our trip. The sister-owners are native English speakers, but Carol has lived in France for 40+ years, and Elizabeth cooks every bit as well as any French cook. The meals, including breakfast (don’t miss the madeleines, chouquettes, Chantilly cream, mini frittatas) not only were uniformly delicious, they also were “right sized.” My husband and I are in our mid-to-upper 60s and find it difficult, though tempting, to eat the rich, multi-course meals often on offer in France, but we dislike wasting food, much less sumptuously-prepared food. Overeating, with the attendant difficulty sleeping, is problematic, especially when one is trying to recover from jet lag or travel fatigue, so the dinners served at Haras are perfect, fresh-ingredient food in generous portions that left us both sated but not in “food comas.” In our particularly-comfortable bed in this quiet rural setting we had some of the best sleep of our long trip and in our rooms found every amenity. Carol even brought a pitcher of milk to accompany the coffee we made and drank while sampling the dark chocolates we found in a bowl on the mantel. The in-room WiFi at Haras is excellent. The sisters’ energy and industry in trying new things, the latest being building coops to raise quail (for quail eggs) while still attending to every detail and need of their guests, made our stay at Haras truly memorable.
