Great hosts, house snd location
A beautifully restored historic building in the heart of Rochefort. Perfect location. The attention to detail in the fittings and fixtures was exceptional. Very warm and friendly welcome from the hosts, particularly Pascal who was incredibly engaging and helpful to us in providing some gem locations and places to eat in the vicinity of Rochefort. The Eames room did not disappoint and you can see the pride in which the house has been filled with original pieces from past era. Would highly recommend. Don’t forget to ask to see the Austin Healey too

A stylish very chambres d'Hotes
My wife and I spent a delightful six days stay at L'esprit du 8 in Rochefort which proved to be the best chambre d'hôtes we have ever stayed at in France. The owners just seemed to have the balance just right having created an impressive, but charming, residence from early 19th century mansion close to the centre of this historic city. This lovely building has been restored with empathy and yet with all the facilities that one would expect of a modern guest house that include a luxury ensuite shower room, coffee/tea in the rooms, cable TV, a lovely swimming pool and a really rather good continental breakfast each morning. We also had a small balcony to our room which gave us a view of the street/town. The interior design celebrates a stylish mix of antique and vintage and fixtures and fittings that will appeal to anyone that enjoys retro collectables. The owners Sandrine and Pascal are attentive, without being intrusive and seem only too happy to make sure that your stay is relaxing and enjoyable. Our stay was blessed with excellent weather and so we spent a very relaxing time around the swimming pool whilst also exploring the historic port and town centre which is a short walk away. This region has a huge amount to explore and so having a car is advisable or you can hire bikes from the owners. We would suggest visits to include La Rochelle (which is a great port to see) and L'île d'Oléron. We would highly recommend this chamber d’hotes to anyone visiting the area!

What a gem!
A last minute booking brought us to this unexpectedly beautiful house, which has been transformed from a rather imposing government residence to a very stylish, modern gem. Each of the four bedrooms is inspired by a modern design icon- we stayed in the Gae Aulenti room, named after the famous Italian architect. The room is very light and spacious, with a very comfortable bed and a large bathroom with jacuzzi bathtub (but no shower). Breakfast is served in a large room with beautiful stained glass windows, at a communal breakfast table. The friendliness of the hosts and other guests made it feel like a special private party! Breakfast itself was delicious and ample - especially the oven fresh bread and the local bio pear juice. It was great to have such a good choice of restaurants within walking distance (even on a Monday evening). The fascinating Corderie Royale is also easily visited on foot. Our only regrets were only to be able to stay one night, and not having time to take advantage of the swimming pool. Thanks for a lovely stay!
