If you are looking for an experience, the Priory does not disappoint. The only room on the property for guests has ties to the Romans from the year 1070. The church itself is decommissioned, but continues to host concerts. Being from the United States, opportunities to be surrounded by such history do not exist. Paul, the owner is a wonderful host and chef. He speaks English quite well and loves to make his clients feel special and share his knowledge of the buildings freely. If asked if you would like dinner on the day of your arrival, absolutely accept. The food, the French countryside and ancient spaces are incredible. Be sure to bring cash to pay for dinner/wine as Paul does not take credit card. You will feel transported to another time and space if you decide to stay at the Priory.

Nuit hors du temps !

Endroit magique, dîner aux chandelles gourmand cuisiné et servi par notre hôte sur une grande table de réfectoire! Le petit déjeuner anglais nous a permis de goûter aux miels du prieuré ! Nous regrettons seulement de n’y avoir passé qu’un nuit! Nous recommandons vivement cette adresse

What an amazing place. Paul made us feel so welcome from the minute we arrived. The property dates back to the 11th century church and is stunning. We relaxed in the gardens. Our room was very spacious and a lovely place to enjoy. The homemade evening meal was delicious. In the morning our breakfast was amazing - everything homemade - apple juice, bread, croissants, pains au chocolat, jams, honey and freshly laid eggs. Simply perfect. A beautiful getaway. We hope to stay longer next time!

It gets better every time!

This was our third stay at Le Prieuré with the wonderful hosts, Paul and Caroline. It is such a joy to travel towards Azay-le-Brule knowing what awaits us! A comfortable room, amazing food and the company of Paul and Caroline. Paul never ceases to amaze us with the exceptionally high quality of the food that appears, as if by magic, from the kitchen. It is as good as any top-class restaurants but you are the only diners with personal attention from the chef. We cannot recommend this haven of tranquility highly enough. Don't miss it if you get the chance to stay. We shall return!!

A return visit didn't disappoint.

This was our second stay at Le Prieuré and it felt like coming home. We couldn't have received a warmer welcome from Paul and Caroline. The hospitality is first class and we enjoyed another of Paul's wonderful dinners. We can't recommend a stay highly enough.

Das ehemalige Benediktinerkloster wird bewohnt von einer Familie. Es hat nur ein einziges großes Gästezimmer in der 1.Etage. Das ganze Ambiente ist einmalig. Etwas schwer zu finden. Man wird von der Familie empfangen. Trotz verkehrsbedingter verspäteter Ankunft wurde ein erstklassig und liebevollst erstelltes 3-Gänge-Menue vom Hausherrn persönlich gekocht und serviert- morgens dann Kloster- und Gartenführung, interessante Gespräche inbegriffen. Das Frühstück war perfekt - fast alles selbsthergestellt, auch der Honig. Ein Ort zum Entschleunigen und Erholen voller Stille und Empathie - die schönste Rast bisher

A tranquil, 5 star retreat. A gastronomic delight!

We had no idea what to expect when we arrived at Le Prieure. We discovered a beautiful, tranquil environment where we were the only guests ( the owners' philosophy, in order to enhance the quality of your stay). Our room was simple but comfortable but we were invited to enjoy other rooms in the house. What we weren't prepared for was the amazing quality of the meals. Paul clearly has a passion for cookery but the wonderful dishes that he prepared for us were all prepared with local ingredients wherever possible. Breakfast consisted of home-made bread, home-pressed apple juice, honey from Paul's hives, home-made yoghurt and even nuts from the garden. We cannot recommend this wonderful home highly enough. Be prepared to be blown away by the standard of the food but remember to bring some loose-fitting clothing!

Paul and Caroline were exceptional hosts. The Priory is beautiful and a haven of quiet. Paul produces his own honey yoghurt breadEggs and concepts. He then produced the most wonderful dinner and the breakfast was a table laid and with the most wonderful food.

Helt fantastisk. Var ett gammalt kloster från ca1100 talet med bara ett rum. Vi var enda gästerna och fick en perfekt vistelse med en 3rätters middag på kvällen Ring till värdparet vid bokning 24 tim före ank. Letar ni något extra så blir ni inte besvikna

Pas de rique d'être déçu

En route pour l'île de Ré, nous avons fait une halte au Prieuré choisi par hasard et nous avons été ravis de notre séjour. Ici, vous êtes reçus d'abord en ami, nos hôtes ainsi que leurs enfants étaient d'une grande gentillesse. Ils étaient très présents pour nous expliquer l'histoire de ce lieu exceptionnel qui se confond un peu avec leur propre histoire, mais ils vous laissent aussi votre liberté sans être envahissants. La chambre était propre, grande, confortable (un vrai lit d'appoint serait le bienvenu si on est trois), et le petit déjeuner servi est digne d'un palace avec des vrais produits du cru: de la confiture, au jus de pomme et jusqu' aux pains aux chocolats faits maison ,préférez ceux préparés par Madame ( petite dédicace à Paul le mari (sans rancune hein :) ). En somme c'était parfait. Boussaad
