Chateau de Noyelles

The chateau is beautiful, in relaxing grounds with an orchard from which they produce fresh apple juice. The staff are very helpful and the breakfast is excellent. The main building is lovely, but wi-fi is patchy, as, on occasions is phone reception. I stayed in one of the overflow rooms (this was peak season), a wooden caravan in the grounds. This can be a quirky, different option. But it can get hot and is located some distance from the main building. This is really a bed and breakfast. You have to book dinners 48 hours ahead, but there's a bistro opposite that serves local seafood specialities. The main tourist towns are just 10 minutes' drive away, so there's lots to do and see, and some very good food. Also good activities for children. One of my favourite parts of France, I've visited several times and never tired of it.

We were here for a wonderful week. This is a great place to stay and the hotel has a relaxed elegance. You feel as though you are really experiencing this lovely part of France. It was a good location for day trips to the nearby cities and WWI history. St Valery sur Mer is close and full of shops and restaurants.

We stopped for one night before travelling further into France. The chateau is stunningly beautiful with lovely grounds and a couple of communal rooms to sit in. We stayed in the Orangery which had an en-suite room with an enormous bed and a sofa bed in the kitchen area which was fine for one night. There is a coffee machine in the kitchen which is a nice touch. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. We had an evening meal in the restaurant which was a set menu but a delicious vegetarian alternative was happily provided. We also had breakfast which was lovely- cereal, croissants, meat, cheese, yoghurt and the offer of eggs cooked to our choice should we want it
