Quality accommodation is very difficult to find in and around Le Mans and for a town of its' size, it is surprising to find only two 4 star hotels. However, quality chateau accommodation is available if you venture away from the environs of Le Mans into the wonderful countryside of the Mayenne and Sarthe.
One can retreat away from the noise, commotion and heat of the circuit to enjoy a peaceful tranquillity, great comfort, gourmet cuisine and a warm welcome..
Chateau de la Motte Henry is a spectacular neo-Renaissance Castle with beautiful outbuildings nestled in the Western Loire Valley, a region known for its beauty, tranquility and cuisine. The property is an ancient motte surrounded by a moat within 29 acres of parkland, paths and fields with exotic trees such a cedars of Lebanon & American redwood. There is also a private lake for swimming or boating.
The Chateau has six superb guest rooms which have all been recently refurbished. Each room is decorated in authentic period decor with ensuite, marble bathrooms. The guest rooms are also extraordinarily spacious - some of the largest rooms we have seen.
Within the grounds is a Pavilion overlooking the lake, offering three smaller but charming guest rooms. There are two doubles (one with king size 4 poster) and one twin. The Pavilion offers a swimming pool within a magnificent walled rose garden. The swimming pool is surrounded by Italian baroque fountains and flower gardens.
Guests residing in the Pavilion also have use of the Orangery, a vast and dramatic pool and games house with indoor barbeque overlooking the pool and walled gardens. It also has a television, bathroom with jacuzzi and hydro-massage Tub.
