Julbord was good, the place is lovely, but difficult to arrive.

The place is really nice and relaxing, the staff is friendly and kind. The bedroom was nice. The sauna area and deck is very nice, just the path to it lacks some signs and lights at night. The lounge is also really good.

Beautiful castle with warm and friendly staff. The sauna place is a must! Cozy by the lake with a beautiful view. Nice selection of food and drinks. Beautiful settings.

Had lunch in cafe. Needed quite a lot of time untill the food coming out but it was great in taste. Very nice area to sit and eat.

A magical place, like taken from a fairytale! Start your visit with afternoon tea on the patio. Enjoy a warm sauna by the water with great views and a cold beer. Have a Michelin star classed meal with great wines, round off with a drink in one of the many salons and end the night in a really comfortable bed with views of the castle at night. You truly feel welcomed and like it is a home away from home.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
