Sadly on Saturday there is no dinner but we took to the excellent free bikes available and cycled to a lovely restaurant on the Seine. It was uphill on the way back in the dark full of steak but it was also a fun adventure.

We had a wonderful stay at the Manoir de Jouralem with our hosts Mel and Hywel. The building and setting are stunning as are the rooms. Breakfast was outstanding.

This place incorporates all modern comforts in a historic building. It has been decorated beautifully. The breakfast was sublime!!! Love it.

An outstanding off the beaten track peaceful medieval Manoir, fantastic hosts who greeted us with a glass of sparkling in the peaceful garden, and a gorgeous blend of old and new (fabulous contemporary bathroom). We had a wonderful dinner in the garden prepared by the host.

This place is excellent in every way. The house and rooms are beautiful and the hosts Mel and Hal are welcoming and lovely. Hal cooked us a superb three course evening meal which was delicious and great value and included wonderful local wine. All their produce comes from no more than six miles away, just brilliant.

The hosts are incredibly friendly and the food is amazing. If we had any questions, they offered their help. We stayed in the highest (and warmest) room, so they had already installed fans to keep the temperature agreable. 10/10 would recommend.

Breakfasts were lovely. The rooms were excellent and very spacious as were the bathrooms. Dinner (cooked by Hywel) was wonderful and his knowledge of the (very) local wines was fantastic. It was lovely eating by the little pool and Tilly the dog was a great companion! Mel very kindly booked a great restaurant for us as well as recommending a very good Chateau (Bablut) for us to visit for some wine tasting. We would happily come again!

Everything was incredibly comfortable, worked really well and was modern and very stylish. The hosts are lovely, and the food (supper and breakfast) were delicious. The wine choices and most of their produce were all sourced from within 20 mins of the manor. Extremely relaxing place - highly, highly recommended.
