The ideal extended family home from home
By Louis Flannery KC on 01-Aug-2026Apart from the cauldron-esque heat, for which no blame can be assigned (save perhaps to mankind in general), this is a superb family gathering place for up to 22 (our body count max was 21 plus 2 dogs!). The garden table is amply big enough for communal dinners (and there are local chefs but book well in advance!). The tennis court is in excellent condition. The pool is a little oasis as well, though be careful to use waterproof sun cream! We had an array of ages, and the house is particularly well suited for about 5 couples and as many children! The daily run to bakery by bicycle was a particular joy. The musicians in the family enjoyed the gorgeous Bechstein piano and the array of games is excellent. The château has a lovely karma. Even the bats were friendly, coming into the drawing room occasionally.
Beautiful place to stay, tranquil and relaxing
By Lyn Real on 25-Jul-2026Beautiful chateau, well equipt and wonderfully laid out. We were a family of 17 all different ages. There was enough space for us all comfortably. Lots of spaces allowing us to either to sit and read quietly or have a disco in the barn area. The pool was large enough for all of us and was heated. Children and grandparents were kept entertained all week as lots to do and see. Fantastic place to stay would highly recommend. Thank you so much for an amazing holiday.

Family & Friends Holiday
By Emma on 17-Aug-2024We had a wonderful week at Le Trichot. The Chateau was beautiful, clean and really spacious for our group of 4 families with young children. So much for the children to explore. We loved the tennis and the pool was amazing. It could not have been any better and I would recommend very highly. Thank you xxx
