The count and countess are exceptional!!! The hospitality was incredible. The tour of the chateau was fascinating. The views very scenic. Quiet and peaceful setting. Not far from Chinon, where one can buy amenities. Highly recommend.

To stay in a chateau as old and wonderful as this was a great privilege and pleasure.Our hosts were brilliant and the Countess was a great cook. Rooms were spacious and bed very comfortable. Bright and modern bathroom.

It's a mini castle! The owners are very helpful and polite, willing to let you come and go as you please. The bedroom (included bathroom) was great (impressive water pressure considering the age of the building) and the grounds are very relaxing to be on. Amenity-wise, the outdoors is the main option. The hiking trails are very nice. We did not use the pool but it looked nice. Otherwise, visit the surrounding wineries & chateaus was the main draw and Chateau De Ternay was a great base for those trips.

Thanks for the Chateau owner, Luike's kind hospitality. We were treated with warm welcome and given orientation / history on the Chateau. Room was spacious and as good as picture shown.

Truly wonderful

How wonderful to stay in this wonderful old chateau set in beautiful woods. That our host is descended from a family history of over 400 years within these walls, it’s history outlined with warmth and humour during he fabulous tour, made our visit all the more special. We would love to return.

A wonderful welcome in a unique chateau.

Posted 24 Jul 2018 on Hotels
We were made to very welcome in this fascinating family chateau. We enjoyed the tour of the chateau by the host very much and recommend booking dinner there which was excellent and beautifully presented. Very good breakfasts and lovely very clean pool in very special tranquil environment. You will have a lovely time if you enjoy being in a historic lived in home, with charming host and hostess, rather than an all mod cons hotel. We loved our three nights there in July and look forward to returning.

A chance to stay in a real historic chateau

Posted 1 Oct 2017
Pros: It is so different and so authentic. A stay in a bland hotel room is soon forgotten. Here you get to stay in a historic chateau.
Cons: Accepting it for what it is, a chance to stay in a historic chateau with all the quirks and character that entails, no improvement needed.
Location: Great location for Saumur and with easy access to Chateau de Chenenceux and the Loire Valley.
If the name Chateau de Ternay conjures up images of the ultimate in luxury and facilities, with staff waiting on you 24 hours a day, you may be disappointed in Chateau de Ternay. If, however, you want to live in a historic chateau, possibly sleeping in a four-poster bed and are happy to put up with the quirks and character of an old building for the pleasure of a real ethnic experience, then this is somewhere you will remember with pleasure for a long time. The owners – and their friendly dogs and cat – will provide a friendly greeting as you are ushered to your room. A picnic supper in the courtyard is quite an experience as you soak in the atmosphere, before an evening stroll in the extensive grounds. Then, in the morning, there is breakfast in the dining room.
