Le Manoir du Val Riant

Virginie and Thibaut are charming hosts and the Manor, cottage and grounds are a hidden gem. The breakfasts were exceptional and the evening meal cooked by Virginie, using produce from their lovely garden was delicious. We had a fabulous stay in the Cottage; it has been beautifully and sympathetically renovated. The wood burner, delicious sharing platter and Netflix (set up by Thibaut) allowed us to have a cosy evening in. We really couldn’t have wished for more and would love to return.

Virginie and Thibaut are the perfect hosts, welcoming, warm and generous. We stayed in the cottage and found it delightful. It was well equipped and beautifully furnished, the log burner was great for cosiness. The fruit de mer we had delivered to the cottage by Virginie and Thibaut was the best we have ever had. Dinner in the chateau on the next night was sublime. Virginie is an exceptional chef and provided us with a fabulous meal and a magical evening. We would love to return.

House & gardens are beautiful, a result of the care and attention put into its restoration. The cottage is spacious, with fully equipped kitchen. Lots to see and do within a short distance, great if you have a bicycle. The hospitality was fantastic, breakfasts delicious and served to us in the cottage - inside or in the garden. Also highly recommend the dinner for a special treat! Beautiful cooking with fresh seasonal ingredients from the local market. Seafood board also great, homemade gravalax and fish rillettes! Overall, we can highly recommend for a relaxing break and we will be back!

What a magical place!! We loved the whole experience. The Manoir has been exquisitely restored. Thibaut and Virginia were the perfect hosts and cooked a fabulous dinner and gorgeous fresh breakfast. We had such a special time and will definitely return.

We stayed in the cottage in the grounds of the Manor House and loved every single minute of it. Private & spacious, and a garden to enjoy. A breakfast of croissants and preserves, home made clafoutis or pancakes was brought over by Virginie & Thibaut every morning. The whole cottage is furnished in period furniture, from the comfortable sofa and chairs in the TV/ sitting room to the perfect king sized bed covered in fresh white linen. The kitchen has every appliance you would need to cook a meal. Virginie recommended local places to visit. We intend to return regularly. Recommended!!

I love the romantic, rustic charm of the cottage and the tranquillity of the gardens, a lovely place to return to after a busy day in nearby Saint-Malo.
