Wonderful stay at the Chateau. The weather was hot so the pool was well used ! The facilities were ideal for our family of 8 adults and 2 children from 3 generations.Martine, Stella and Phillips were very helpful during the week, helping us to organise a last-minute visit to a local Champagne house.The only slight negative ? We could have used a larger BBQ given the size of our group, however the kitchen is incredibly well equipped.Would definitely return in the future.

Even better than the pictures

Property was superb - even better than the pictures - we had a mixed family group to celebrate our 40th birthdays and it was so big and well maintained that we could do things together or separately throughout the week. Communication with Martine was easy and helpful. She was also very helpful throughout the covid delays.

Spectacular!

The château is simply magnificent. A group of 16 of us spent four nights here in late September to celebrate my milestone birthday. The château was just breathtaking -- the building itself is stunning, and the rooms look exactly like the photos. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large and they're all so nice, it was not difficult to divide them up among the group. There are several fireplaces, and we gathered around them each evening to share stories, play games, and sip wine. The outdoor setting and grounds are incredibly picturesque and peaceful. We awoke each morning to a chorus of birds and church bells, and enjoyed the pool, the outdoor seating areas, the grill, and even several runs along the nearby roads. We took hundreds of photos, with the gorgeous grounds, moat, and château itself providing an almost surreal backdrop. We also rented two vans/drivers and spent a day touring two champagne houses in/near Épernay. Martine is an amazing and gracious host, and was so helpful and responsive as I tried to plan and coordinate our time at the property. She recommended a local chef who prepared a family-style dinner for us one night, and a full service dinner another night. He and his wife were wonderful and the food delightful. I can't say enough good things about this property and the host. It was the perfect place to spend my birthday and create a cherished memory. We are so fortunate to have had the opportunity to stay at this beautiful château and to have met Martine.

Magical!

We absolutely loved this chateau! Our group was only made up of 6 people, so the space felt wonderfully expansive and very comfortable. The chateau is the perfect balance between historical period ambience and modern decor/conveniences. It was super clean when we arrived and there are plenty of sheets/pillows/towels/blankets for everyone. The kitchen is very well appointed - since we visited at the very beginning of autumn, it was perfect to prepare a roast chicken dinner, then enjoy it in the dining room, with the fireplaces lit. The gardens are beautiful and the swimming pool was very clean - and quite warm, considering it was the first week of October. Our objective was to have a home base from which to explore the champagne region - it’s 1 hour and 15 minutes south of either Reims or Épernay. If you’re looking for a combination-type experience of having a large party that can enjoy a luxurious space, whilst also having access to the Champagne region, it’s very easy to rent a car in Reims, then base your party at the chateau. You can then separately arrange a driver/small tour operator on 1 - 2 of the days so everyone can enjoy tastings across the region, particularly at the prolific small grower houses. Martine was always accessible via the Vrbo messaging feature and she was very helpful and efficient in her correspondence. She sends plenty of useful info ahead of your arrival, including the chef arrangements from the nearby restaurant, and she was so patient when we caused some confusion with the door locks, sending someone to the chateau very quickly! I would stay here again and again and I definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone!

A wonderful holiday in a delightful large Chateau

Whatever you may think when you look at the photos, you will be more impressed when you arrive 😊 Martine is terrific – very welcoming, charming and really helpful - she answered the few queries we had by email very quickly & she is quite right to be very proud of their lovely house (we were very grateful for the lovely champagne in the fridge too!) The Chateau is really nicely renovated and decorated, the outlook is amazing on to the park at the back and the rooms (upstairs & downstairs) are generally large comfortable and not over the top. It’s somewhere you can relax and not worry about breaking old furniture or antiques! There were 10 of us in 2 families, so we used 6 bedrooms and the 5 bathrooms – some of the upstairs bedrooms ‘share’ en-suite bathrooms which are between the 2 rooms. For our families this was perfect, but don’t expect 8 bedrooms all to have a private en-suite. The downstairs bedroom has a separate bathroom. The main bedroom is amazing, it has a large en-suite with sauna and whirlpool bath, so the ‘hot tub’ isn’t under the stars, it is a bath in a bathroom – I guess it would be a bit cozy for more than 4 people! This room also has a walk-in wardrobe & the sauna. There are two dining rooms, it might be a challenge getting 16 around the main table, but for our 10 it was brilliant, we dined outside a couple of times. The pool is really nice, it warmed up during the week – the peace and tranquillity from the pool were delightful, the only sounds were the church tower clock, frogs in the moat and the occasional flapping of wings as a heron took off! (or a Frech air force jet!) There are a couple of supermarkets a few miles away, so stocking up was easy (nothing in the village next door). We were there for a relaxing family holiday, reading, eating, drinking, swimming, being together as families, playing badminton (we took our own) and cycling & walking around the grounds, it was perfect. We saw deer, a hare and heron in the park, plus dozens of frogs in the moat. The Champagne trail is a few miles away and we spent a day going around the region which is delightful, but didn’t realise that nearly everywhere closed for the bank holiday. Wifi is OK and at 4 hours from Calais, travelling was really easy. It's a very special place and we would love to go back - thank you Martine for letting us stay in your wonderfulChateau.

Family Celebration

We chose this property based on previous reviews and were not disappointed. We were a group of 15 adults ranging in age from 18 to 87 holidaying together to celebrate my parents 60th wedding anniversary. Communication with the owner, Martine, was excellent. She always responded within a few hours and gave us lots advanced information on days out , restaurants etc. The property was much grander than we expected. High ceilings , huge rooms and extensive grounds were most impressive. It was great that every bedroom was magnificent meaning no arguements when rooms were allocated! There were plenty of rooms downstairs including a bar area , snugs and a billiard room which was great when the weather wasn’t so good. When the weather was good , which was most of the time , many hours were spent having fun by the pool . We had four dogs with us and found that the grounds were so extensive that there was no need to walk the dogs outside of the property. We would also recommend , as have previous guests, the services of local chef, Denis , who cooked a magnificent 5 course meal at the Chateau. We would very much like to return to this exceptional property in the not too distant future.

Back to the 18th Century

The Chateau Isle-Sur-Marne was as beautiful as we expected from the photographs. We were impressed by the careful restoration and the tactful modernisation of the 18th century building. We enjoyed strolling in the estate and imagining ourselves living in the 18th century as we passed by the little statues of the period, trying to visualize Sophie Volland, the owner of the house at the time, reading the letters from Diderot, her friend, interlocutor and lover for almost 30 years. We were a big family group - 16 people, between 7 and 81 years old - and there was ample space for all of us, both for privacy and for community. The daily cleaning by Michelle and the meals that Martine suggested we ask the chef Denis Chatelet to provided for us, made a whole difference to this week of rest and pleasure. The heatwave which finally caught us up was unexpected, and the pool was essential for recreation and comfort.

Amazing and relaxing retreat in the Champagne region

Everything was lovely! The property is beautiful, spacious and well-equipped. We were a group of 9 and were quite comfortable. We lounged in the living room every morning with the French doors open to the garden, strolled the grounds and the village, and the mayor of the village even took us up in the bell tower of the church! The pool was refreshing in the heat, and we loved the nature sounds from all of the birds and frogs. :) Vitry-le-François is nearby and has several grocery stores and boulangeries. And Martine was easy to work with and so accommodating! We would definitely stay there again!!

Chateau, champagnes, and commardarie

Chateau Isle sur Marne is a gracious home. It proved itself as a grand host for five couples who were here for a week in October, 2018. Along with my husband we arranged the details with our hosts and they were easy and prompt in all communications. The directions to the chateau were also easy- but on our part with a GPS and jet lag,so frustrating at first, and so simple on the end 10 of us stayed here. It was private, very clean, and plumbing, electric worked fine. WIFI was excellent. Rooms and even bathrooms large. Beds comfortable. Decor fits. Kitchen is well equipped. Common areas pleasant. The grounds and ambience are hard to distinctly describe, perhaps “evocative” is the best word. One can wander and so enjoy the park-like setting. At the suggestion of our hosts we were in communication with the excellent chef who lives close by and we pre arranged for 2 delicious dinners. On our last night together all of us went to his restaurant for dinner, and once again we were not disappointed. The pictures provided regarding the chateau are accurate but again all is MUCH better and lovelier in person. We used the chateau as a base for WWI homage and study. We spent some other enjoyable time at several champagne houses and explored nearby cities I rate this 5 stars. I would rate it 5.5 had there been a small welcome basket of coffees and teas, bread and jam. Aside from no tissues and lack of soap and hair dyers all was excellent. Do not hesitate to book. Study your maps before you arrive and take travel care package.

Magical

From 8 to almost 80, 10 family members stayed for a week at the beautiful Chateau. The weather was so hot that we did not venture far, used the pool, bbq and cycled and walked in the grounds. We saw deer in the morning and hare and herons galore. The only noise was from the frogs in the moat. Peaceful and secluded but in a lovely area, the birdwatcher was not only impressed with the grounds but the nearness of the lakes. Fantastic, we'd love to go back again.
