After driving from the Vallee de la Loire through Murat and Aurillac, we came to Estaing, one of the pilgimmage stops for Santiago de Compostela and also one the most beautiful villages of France named for the ancestors of Giscard d'Estaing. Outside the city a short distance is the lovely country manor of La Fabregues with rooms overlooking the river... More

La Manoir de la Fabreques is a beautiful country home which the owners have fixed up so beautifully with their hearts and souls! They love this manoir and it is apparent from the beautiful interior decorations to the impeccable service to the immaculate care and maintenance. This is not your normal chambre d'hotes. Linens and towels are crisp and new,... More

We stayed in an amazing family room on the top floor of the hotel (two rooms permanently joined as one) -which meant that parents and daughter each had their own space (room and bathroom!). The rooms are beautifully decorated and the hosts really friendly. We had dinner and breakfast there and the (home-cooked and locally sourced) food was delicious. Highly... More

What a beautiful property in a glorious location. We wished that we had been able to stay longer. Eric and Laurent were most welcoming. We had booked a suite,... More

The hosts, Eric and Laurent, have consistently made small improvements to the hotel over the course of our visits and each stay is a pleasure. This time we had room 10 for... More

This time we had a junior suite... More

Friendly, efficient service in an attractive small hotel. Delicious food in the hotel's restaurant.

This place is a find. Rooms are tasteful and spotless, ours had a nice washroom with soaker tub. The whole place shows attention to detail and the owners are meticulous in keeping it organized and spotless. Huge fireplace in the great room if you just want to sit with a drink or book. The place has a real charm and... More
