Chateau de Couin

Comme une parenthèse dans le...<br>#128578; Le château de Couin est un site exceptionnel de cette région qui a été repris par des amoureux des vieilles pierres. Ils ont remis en route patiemment ce lieu chargé d'histoire dans le respect des contraintes imposées par les monuments historiques. Ils nous ont partagé les secrets de ce magnifique château purement 18eme. Nous avons également beaucoup apprécié le petit déjeuner raffiné qui nous a fait découvrir les spécialités de la région et de notre hôtesse.<br>#128577; La remise en état d'origine pour être conforme au cahier des charges des monuments historiques a été jusqu'à la taille du lit de la chambre que nous avons occupé et qui, de nos jours pourrait être un peu plus grand pour 2 personnes.

Beautiful spot, a unique experience!<br>#128578; Beautiful chateau located in a peaceful rural hamlet, superb setting. Bedrooms were fantastic. Our host was wonderful, she was hugely helpful and gave us a wonderful history of the chateau. We will return!

Exceptional<br>#128578; History

If you enjoy staying in unspoilt country houses and appreciate all that goes with them, this place is for you. WiFi is the only concession to the modern world.Well positioned for visiting all the memorials to the Battle of the Somme and other Great War sites.

Difficult to score the chateau, we had a great experience but found the chateau to be a bit run down with small beds, no shower, and the rooms were dark. It just needs a bit of a refresh. When we arrived the place looked deserted we had to ring to work out how to enter, Downs stairs was very dark quite cold, although the host was lovely, she recommended a local restaurant for dinner which was excellent. We came back to a welcome fire and a bottle of wine. Our room had a small double bed, no proper pillows and our daughters bed was like a day bed. Next morning we woke to a great breakfast and had a really nice chat with the host.

We really enjoyed our stay at this outstanding Chateau. It was relatively easy to find and the drive through the grounds up to the Chateau itself made quite a positive impression. We were warmly greeted on our arrival then toured around the Chateau to learn not only of the facilities available to us but both the history of the Chateau and its restoration.Our room was large and well appointed, likewise the bathroom was quite spacious. I thought the period sink was quite cool. The view from the room was great looking out on the backyard and the field and woods beyond. The dining room had plenty of drinks and snack available. We were the only ones at the Chateau during our stay and because of schedule we had picnic suppers in the dining room. We had the breakfast each morning which were quite filling and a good way to start a long day of sightseeing.Due to our hectic schedule we never used the sitting rooms but if we had stayed longer and/or wanted some down time they were well appointed and comfortable. We also walked the grounds which was a nice way to unwind a bit after doing a fair bit of driving. There was a restaurant in the nearby village of Pas-en-Artois and further afield in Doullens. The location was perfect for visiting Amiens, Arras and Lens.Great location, outstanding service, comfortable and satisfying staying. Well be back!

We stayed for two nights ( B and B ) in this delightful and very characterful chateau. Veronique, our host, was very welcoming and we were impressed by the history of the building and the wonderful restoration work that she and her husband have undertaken. Our room was beautiful and the breakfast delicious! If you wish to have dinner you need to let Veronique know well in advance - we went to Albert, about 12 miles away, to eat in the evenings as we had left it rather last minute but this was no trouble especially as Veronique very kindly rang and booked us a reservation. This is definitely a place for those who appreciate something a bit different. A perfect location for a peaceful stay and easy to get around to visit local places of interest.
