Reviews of Chateau la Cheneviere

Absolutely magnificent stay! From entrance and reception, accommodation and facilities, gastronomy and staff: all equally “excellente”… Special commendation to Ambre the bar lady, who made not only outstanding house-cocktails (The Botanist is my favorite), but showed to master the classics as well, with or without a twist. Rooms clean and beautifully maintained in the Manor’s style, excellent beds, hot and powerful showers. Lovely park and pool, Tennis if you are up for it. Beautiful restaurants with equally beautiful kitchen, and, noblesse oblige, a stellar wine selection. For us, our new home base for our Normandy and D-day adventures, Will be back for sure…

Very nice, quiet relaxed setting. Easily walkable to Port-en-Bessin-Huppain. The staff were very friendly and the restaurants on site were excellent while the breakfast was also very good. I would recommend a car if coming here for easier access to villages further away although we were able to take a taxi to Bayeux quite easily arranged through the concierge. I loved the historical feel of the place. I would recommend it to anyone.

So special! We spent 5 nights at Chateau La Cheneviere, using it as a base for our travels in the area. It is such a beautiful estate with an interesting history. Our room was beautiful, with a very comfortable bed and amenities. We enjoyed strolling the grounds and relaxing by the pool at the end of one of our tour days. The staff was quite nice. Breakfast delicious. We did dine at Botaniste one night and while the food presentation was beautiful, the flavors were off and food not cooked quite right. We had a car and parking was easy and we drove to Bayeaux for dinner the other evenings. Easy to park in the center of Bayeaux, even at the end of June. We strolled into Port en Bessin for lunch on our arrival day -- interesting walk. We would recommend this hotel for romantic couples and families! Smiles from all at breakfast.

This is an exquisite hotel with beautifully manicured grounds. I must confess that the lunch we just had was abominable. Presentation and taste were both lacking, and sadly the dessert was inedible. This is France and Wendy and I cannot imagine why it wasn’t a more enjoyable meal.

We had a great experience at Chateau La Cheneviere! The grounds are amazing as well as both restaurants. We had dinner at Le Petite Jardin both nights and the food was fantastic. I highly recommend this property when in the region!

A beautiful chateau on acres of lush expansive property. The rooms are beautifully decorated and very comfortable and clean. The service was excellent. There are 2 Michelin recommended restaurants which are excellent. The noise level was acceptable. A very old building can have a few creaks. The chateau is 10 minutes from Bayeux which has many more good restaurants. It is typical value for a 5 star property. The only rip off was breakfast at 32 euros which, unfortunately, is typical for hotels.

Absolutely stunning chateau in the Normandy region of France. This is the perfect location for anyone interested in WWII History. Well located, excellent appointments in the room with 2 great restaurants on property. There is a great pool, tennis courts and parklike grounds.

Excellent staff, room, restaurants. Beautiful surroundings! Would love to return.

When you think about Normandy and what you imagine it will be, this hotel captures it perfectly. A beautiful chateau in the countryside, but very close to some lovely restaurants, and just a short drive to the D Day beaches. The grounds are beautiful, and the lobby and bar area are small yet lovely. Our room was on the small side, but clean and well decorated. Breakfast was very good. Highly, highly recommend this establishment if you want the true Normandy countryside experience.

The hotel has large and beautifully kept grounds. The outdoor pool is large. The room we had was good, but not great. The main restaurant has fabulous breakfasts and dinners.

The rooms ate 3 stars at the most. Dirty, old. Paint is coming off, rusted lamps, hair dryer with a push button- like in an 1980 motel ... spiders and bugs. Extra blanket that looks from the last centurt, an old safe. Bathroom is cheap and broken. Bed is old and looks bad. See it all in the pics and enlarge them for a closer look. Also room door has no shade so the light from the outside is not letting u sleep. The restaurant served food with no taste, i couldn't believe it's made in France. DON'T SAY YOU WERE NOT WARNED!!

During our D-Day excursion, we had the unforgettable pleasure of stopping for lunch at Château La Chenevière — and I can honestly say it felt like stepping into a dream. The 17th-century manor is nestled among perfectly manicured gardens and centuries-old trees, with every corner of the property whispering elegance, history, and peace. Lunch was exceptional — refined yet relaxed, showcasing local flavors in the most beautiful setting imaginable. Afterward, we had time to walk the grounds, and I was struck by how serene and timeless everything felt. The chateau blends classic French charm with an inviting warmth that made it hard to leave. If you’re ever in Normandy, make this place a priority. It’s not just a stop — it’s an experience. From the peaceful gardens to the stunning architecture and thoughtful hospitality,.

I was thrilled to return to this beautiful property. Besides its physical appeal, the location of the property is its main asset. It is the perfect base for visiting all the Normandy landing beaches and other military sites. They had recommended a marvelous guide named Igor from Gold Beach Company who made our experience memorable. I highly recommend him and his,company. The bedroom was exquisite, the dinner in the gourmet restaurant excellent, and the gardens, magnificent. The staff is superb and I especially want to mention Giovanni, who gave me so much personal attention. He was most professional and graciousness. Thank you to all for another superb experience.

What a hotel with a fantastic Restaurant and lovely pool. The cheese chariot at Le Botaniste a must fantastic with 16 different cheese close to all the sites.
