A Wonderful Two Weeks

Afaf Arliongton, Texas, USA
Review Submitted: June 16, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Our family of eleven adults plus two French friends spent a delightful two weeks in this beautiful chateau. The owners, Tony and Pat, were so nice and made us feel at home. The living and dining rooms are from a Hollywood set, and the master bedroom is huge and elegant. We used the separate coach house for two of our party. The kitchen is in the basement, servants quarters, but makes eating in the dining room very special.
