We had a fabulous holiday in your wonderful home-what a place to celebrate Rosie's 60th.!! Christiane cooked us a great meal and Carl prepared an excellent baebecue.
Our 4-year-old granddaughter actually managed to swim her first strokes in your beautiful pool. I would really like to go again next year if possible.
You must be very proud of what you have created at Chateau des Egrons-and thank you again for letting us share it.

We had a fantastic week. The Chateau is quite beautiful and I am unashamed to say that we did as little as we could possibly do in a week. We were blessed by the hot weather and our tennis and swimming has definitely improved! Thank you again and hope to return some time soon.
