"On itinerant holidays we choose to do 3 castle relays and starred tables in a row. The reservation went perfectly. The welcome is perfect, the location magnificent overlooking the Lot valley and a lock. The castle has a history and the team takes real pleasure in sharing it with you. The room is very beautiful, only small defect the television integrated into the mirror requires closing the curtains and turning off the lights. A real joke. Anyway, we're not here for that. Head for the pool, unheated, we were warned. It is very large but the state is degraded. We had fun recovering the small tiles detached from the walls at the bottom of the water. Our score is 10. It's up to you to do better. The gardens are little or not maintained, for this standard it is disappointing. The rose bushes are sluggish, and around the swimming pool simply fallow. The stone balustrades in the garden are sadly badly damaged by weather and frost, and in one place they have collapsed, and a makeshift parapet replaces them. The restaurant we take the tasting menu, 200€, convinced of having as good a time as the night before. First course mini zucchini with horseradish. Too sour, I finish reluctantly. Second dish of foie gras escalope marked with verjuice. Ditto, I don't finish the filling. Third course lobster ravioli. Too salty I do not finish. This time I share my disappointment. The rest follows and it goes well but without pleasure. The next day new disappointment, discussion with the chef, who stands up to me by explaining to me that everyone loves his cooking and besides another guest congratulated the team the same day. So I'm the one with deviant behavior. Yes, but we were two at the table! I am particularly disappointed and upset by the reaction of the chef, steeped in ego and smugness who explains with authority that I am wrong. Well for me it's clear our path will not cross again. Small detail management made a commercial gesture, I did not ask, we just wanted to spend a nice evening."
