Manoir de Plaisance

This is a perfect place to relax - far from any bustle, or noisy road. The manor is surrounded by countryside with a brook running through the garden near the house with ducks and beaver-like coypu swimming under the water lilies. The bedroom was charmingly furnished with the only comfortable pillows we had during two weeks travelling in France. We also had the best breakfast with memorable breads and pastries. Ben and Michael have got it exactly right. I've no criticisms! There were even sockets for iPhone chargers in the bedroom and plenty of hooks to hang robes and towels in the bathroom (a constant gripe of mine). Ben cooked a fantastic dinner which we ate outside to the sound of the brook. They don't do dinner every night but recommend local places to visit.

Tip Top and Not ?! Tip Top? Everything !!! The warm and friendly welcome The beautiful room The gorgeous building The exquisite food The amazing decor The fabulous pool The friendly peacock and chickens The general atmosphere! This was our second visit and we were not disappointed!!! Planning our next trip already ! Not ? Nothing !!! This place is paradise 🧡

Absolutely charming place with charming hosts. Ben and Michael make a great team, the attention to detail is superb, dinner was lovely (don’t know if I loved the warm hummus but it didn’t detract from the whole experience). Definitely recommend staying here.

A beautiful building set in beautiful grounds. They only open for dinner on limited days but they recommended a number of restaurants and we went to Les Flots in La Rochelle which was excellent. Super breakfast with option to cook eggs as wells as continental. Nice British owners.

My husband and I stayed at Manoir de Plainance for 8 days last month - it was a truly memorable experience, and we genuinely didn't want to leave. Ben and Michael are fabulous hosts - literally NOTHING was too much trouble! We really felt like we were in paradise ... delicious food and a beautiful environment. Everything is so tastefully done. We will definitely be back!

C’est un endroit magnifique au cadre raffiné et reposant. Tout est pensé pour le confort des hôtes, la décoration est de très bon goût et le parc animé de ses paons et canards en liberté est incroyable. Une piscine d’eau salée très agréable vient agrémenter le séjour. Le petit déjeuner est incroyable. Nos dates ne coïncidaient pas avec la table d’hôtes mais nous testerons lors de notre prochaine visite !
