Just returned from a two week trip thru France, and we were so thankful that we decided to stay at the Abbaye de la Bussiere for two nights. It is difficult to put into words how amazing it is! We were somewhat concerned that it may be a bit stuffy, but it was the complete opposite. The staff is very... more

Deep in the heart of the Burgundy region there is this stunningly beautiful property. We were were fortunate enough to be able to book one night at The Abbaye, staying there on our way to the South of France. We contacted the property directly and were very pleased with their efficiency and friendliness. After entering the gates we were absolutely... more

WOW. We were very fortunate to spend three nights over the Easter weekend at the wonderful abbaye. Having stayed several times at Amberley Castle in Sussex, which was until recently owned and run by the parents of Clive, the resident proprietor of the Abbaye, we had extremely high expectations. We were therefore delighted to find that these expectations were not... more

The whole experience was fabulous - the stunning setting and beautiful room complete with whirlpool bath, kir royale in the room on arrival, the exquisite tasting menu - we loved it! We loved it... more

We stayed for 2 nights at L'Abbaye at the end of a 6 week tour around Switzerland, France and Italy. During our trip we stayed at the Villa D'Este and Hotel Splendido in Italy - both were great but neither quite lived up to the hype, despite staying in the best suites. We were just so glad that we ended... more

It was the perfect end for our trip before turning in our 997's in Stuttgart the next day. Clive was an incredible host giving us a tour of the grounds and sharing his... more

After reading previous reviews i was won over despite the price and decided to try the Abbaye out. We were not disappointed. Arriving late with my family we were stunned by the place (which was incidentally not easy to find unless you have GPS). The grounds are beautiful and the Abbaye has been restored to perfection. Our 3yr old just... more

Don't want to be redundant by repeating comments from the prior reviews as they mostly match our experience. Additional positive comments include that the staff was actually very helpful to carry our luggage to the room (possibly a response to prior comments on tripadvisor.com?). The hotel room, its service and the restaurant were all awesome. As previously noted, Clive, the... more
