I want to take my Mom to France in Sep '08. As I am planning it now, it will be a 10 day holiday, half the time spent at the chateau and touring from there (I will rent a car) and then ending in Paris for the last half. My accommodations in Paris are all set.
As a special treat, I would like to have us stay at one of the, if not *the*, finest chateau's in the country. The only regions I'm not interested in are those in the very south.
If you have a recommendation or two, please tell me as much you can, especially if you have stayed there. Link to the site? Was it a grand castle? What were the grounds like? The public rooms? The bedrooms? Did the bedrooms have toilets and baths/showers en suite? How was the staff? The food? etc. Surrounding sites of interest?
I PROMISE TO READ ALL ANSWERS AND I WILL REWARD A BEST ANSWER.
I realize this will be costly; but my Mom deserves it (and so do I)! :)
Thank you -- it is truly appreciated!
