Castle holiday rentals in English Channel

Excellent host and great location! Thank you!

A fantastic family chateau that accommodated 3 families comfortably, and even nicer in real life than in the photos. Large well kept grounds and loads of space to explore. There is plenty to do in the local area. Basic amenities within a few minutes' drive including a great riverside bistro in Daon, the nearby large town of Chateau-Gontier is 15 mins away while Angers is around 40 mins away for everything a city provides. Highly recommended!

The cottage is part of the castle. The site is beautiful, very quiet with a huge park. Great for a large family.

Due to the fantastic photos on Airbnb our expectations were already high, but reality by far exceeded all our expectations. We really spent a perfect week in the wonderful Garden Apartment in Acton Castle. Maybe the most impressive is the incredible view over the bay of Penzance with the spectacular St. Michael's Mount as its central point. You can enjoy this fantastic view from the living room, from the breakfast table or even when doing the dishes in the kitchen. Another highlight is the garden which is really beautiful with a nice pond, wonderful plants and flowers and many great places to sit and enjoy the view. Also the 18th century Acton Castle is a very beautiful and really impressive building. The apartment is ideal for a family like ours with 2 children. The main sleeping room has its own bathroom with toilet and shower. The main bathroom has a bathing tub with shower and another toilet. The appartment has two floors. Sleeping rooms and bathrooms are in the basement, while living room and kitchen are in the first floor with its incredible view. The appartment offers a lot of space for a family of four and we weren't missing anything. You reach the costal path within two minutes from the garden. We did a very nice walk to St. Michael's Mount. Acton Castle is also a good starting point for many activities in the area. You can easily reach Penzance, St. Ives, the Lizard Peninsula and many, many more great places by car. There are several big supermarkets in the direction towards Penzance which you can reach within 10 minutes by car. Garden Apartment in Acton Castle is a really perfect place to spend a perfect holiday and we definitely give a 5 star recommendation. Thanks to Tim for giving us the possibility to enjoy this great place and the area around it.

We had an exceptional stay. The owners are remarkably kind, discreet but very responsive, the castle is true to its description, easy to access and very well maintained. The children were able to frolic, we were able to enjoy exceptional time and have lunch outside. We will come back without hesitation, it is an address that must be kept for family or friends gatherings.

Our stay at Chateau Le Mont Epinguet surpassed all of our expectations-- it's truly beautiful and Fiona and Mark are beyond friendly. We went as a group of 18 and still found the house incredibly spacious-- you'll never be on top of one another! The gardens outside are lovely and provide lots of spots for sunbathing/reading (and so spacious we even got in a game of rounders). The kitchen has as much crockery as you might ever desire; there are several excellent and large supermarkets within a 15 minute drive (better quality produce and more economical than any British supermarket). Above all-- I cannot express the warmth and kindness of Mark and Fiona-- they're exceptional hosts who attended to any queries we had and provided a wealth of excellent beach & restaurant recommendations. A beautiful chateau, a wonderful (eccentric) interior, with lovely gardens (esp. the palm trees), and great for friends who wish to spend some time stuck together.

We had a lovely stay at Monique's, discovering Cotentin. The accommodation is in a peaceful place where it's nice to enjoy the terrace. Everything was very clean.

Back again for another fab long weekend at Henrietta’s and it did not disappoint! Cosy bedrooms, roaring fire and the warmest of welcomes as ever. Always a treat 🥰

Had a wonderful weekend at Northcourt house. Beautiful property with everything we needed. Clean rooms and a well equipped kitchen. Perfect when you travel and cook for a larger group of people. Peaceful surroundings and James is a helpful and friendly host.

The property was absolutly wonderful, the photos don’t do it justice! I particularly appreciated the garden with its beautiful array of trees and patches of forest. The estate was so vast I dont think we made it to the edge. The house was extremly private and out of sight of any neighbours. The house itself was spacious and comfortable, so were the beds. I was working online and the internet connection was good, even with multiple connections, with a very nice dedicated workspace. The kitchen had every appliance imaginable, with enough crockery for a banquet! While I was there the trees were ripe with fruit and we were treated to pears, apples, rasberries, blackberries, stawberries, grapes and more. The chickens generously provided us with fresh eggs every morning and the peacocks were not only beautiful to watch but also friendly. Not to talk about the wild forna including squirels, pheasents, woodpekers and other small birds… It was a pleasure meeting Philippe who not was an excellent host; showing us around the property and being helpful with our questions, but also an excellent cook, perparing traditional french food for us per our request. He was fun to be around. Overall a great experience, we are already planning when we can visit again!

We had an exceptional weekend at the Four à Chaux manor, despite the unpredictable weather. The setting is absolutely beautiful and the services met our expectations. Everything was perfect, from the warm welcome, the cleanliness of the place or the comfort of the facilities. We'll be happy to go back and highly recommend this place for a memorable stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the Chateau to celebrate the New Year. You really have to see it to believe how charming this Chateau is - our children wanted to stay there forever! It’s totally unique and a truly great experience. Nina and her Father were the perfect hosts - helpful with all of our questions and providing great recommendations for what to see and do in the area. We wish we could have had more time there!

This amazing home was perfect for a family get together, with walks on the doorstep and parking available. It was well- equipped and spotlessly clean. We found the staircase to the roof garden and loved the views! Only wish we could have stayed longer!

“Firstly, Xavier was the consummate host - communicative, helpful, and friendly. When two of our guests weren’t feeling well, he was especially attentive and considerate, offering assistance with great care. The property and our stay were wonderful. The castle is just as described, if not better - it feels both cozy and expansive at the same time. It is warm and welcoming, and the surrounding village is charming. Plus, there are plenty of unique sites and places to explore within a 15–20 minute drive. For a relaxing and special experience, Xavier’s place was perfect.”

Was lovely to stay here for a week. Everything is well arranged, and good reception. Enjoyed our stay at this location. Furthermore, the supermarket and other things are easy to drive to, so plenty to do in the area.

We stayed at the castle for my sister's bachelorette party, and had a lovely weekend. Everything is thought out for the comfort of the guests, and the setting of the castle invites conviviality and good humor. Myriam, the host, is very warm and provided us with perfect directions to make our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for an unforgettable moment.

Very good stay spent within the accommodation. This is a great experience.

We booked last minute and André was very responsive. Booking made the night before for the next day… The farmhouse is just fantastic and tastefully renovated! Very quiet and yet in the city center with all amenities nearby. For bargain hunters, you can buy objects or paintings from our host Gaëlle! Best of all, there is a hot tub in the century-old park! It was great to take a relaxing break under the stars in early November! For music lovers, there is all the necessary equipment with vinyls, CDs or for movie lovers DVDs or Netflix…. It's really an exceptional rental in the area! The welcome we received was also very pleasant as was the departure. We'll happily come back to André and Gaelle's! Dalila, Chloé and Éric

🌟 5/5 - A perfect weekend in an exceptional place! We had an absolutely awesome weekend at this beautiful Airbnb. The accommodation is spacious, very well decorated and perfectly equipped. The pool was a real delight, especially with the nice weather we had, and the barbecue area greatly contributed to the friendly atmosphere of our stay. Small downside: the road to access the accommodation was not easy to find at the start, and a light bulb and showerhead were no longer working when we arrived. Luckily, the concierge was very responsive, available and super flexible — everything was fixed quickly! Cleanliness was correct, and communication with hosts was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. A big thank you again for this beautiful parenthesis. We'll be happy to go back!

Wonderful stay in the beautiful King suite that Château de la Bainerie!! The castle life was at the rendezvous …. The size of the bedroom and bathroom , the brightness with three large bays , bedding …. Everything was spotless . As soon as you arrive, you feel at home ... at the castle!! Our host is very discreet and always there when you need to . I recommend it. For a very nice weekend experience ….

We had a lovely stay at this authentic Chateau de la Bainerie. Check-in is self-contained and easy; many rooms are open to discover the castle. This one being quite huge the cost of maintenance is I imagine high, so we are happy to have been able to participate humbly with this unusual stay.

What a wonderful and underrated spot. Firstly, Wilfrid was an amazing host. Always available, very attentive, and Gallic hospitality at its best. He was extremely flexible in all aspects (from check-in, use of spa, and time to eat breakfast). We mistakenly slept in one morning and we were able to eat a proper breakfast at 1130. Extremely clean and a serene environment. A very immersive Normandy experience. The house is very old but fully renovated as it is a passion project for Wilfrid who has spent generations in the house.
