A family trip that never tires of us, we return there every weekend. Because Kévin, our youngest, really loves this atmosphere worthy of Romanian tales. A silent entry into an airy, flexible and dynamic architecture. Secondary ventilation which cools the foreheads, heated by so many vaults. However, it is surprising that eco-responsible initiatives, such as solar panels, were not thought of during construction. Hoping that the air conditioning doesn't run amok. Kisses and see you Saturday, as usual.

Nestled in a remote corner, this abbey is marvelous The gigantic rooms, even if empty, leave an ambiguous impression: it is difficult to imagine that monks lived there. This is where I experience unnpru frustration ; fortunately the Garden, makes us forget all this true Oasis, of scents and color with the rose bushes

Wonderful place including the large room where the monks ate and the rose garden. But few staff available in case of questions. The price of the visit is very exaggerated: €14 per adult... prohibitive. We won't come back.

Pleasant visit to the abbey and its gardens. Very well maintained site. Lots of stairs, which can be a barrier for people with reduced mobility. I recommend visiting the gardens with thousands of roses. Possibility of meals at the restaurant which still remains high-end. PS: the drinks dispenser was not working!!!

I was shocked by the quality of food and its presentation compared to the prices charged. My menue was 25.90 EUR, including a trout starter in a delicious sauce, followed by swordfish. The service was also impeccable. Highly recommended.

Tourists are unheard of nowadays....they come here to buy wine...eat at the restaurant...but barely take care of the abbey itself...Initially Benedictine in 1093 she becomes a Cistercian the following century...until today although deserted by the monks and belonging to private descendants of the original buyers in 1908...a couple of artists Gustave and Madeleine FAYET...friends of the painters Gauguin and Redon...Manet and Monet..Degas..Pissaro and Cezanne ...whose sale of paintings will help the acquisition of the buildings and their renovation....it is today a place of calm at the opening before the hordes grouped or not ..surge! and that is a shame!!! equipped with the saving plan we went through the little trot not to be crushed the courtyard of honor and the building of the Convers...the courtyard of the eighteenth century and the magnificent alley vault in half-cradle...superb!! the cloister is located by three entrances west south and is leading to the magnificent chapter room and its final staircase....The abbey church has a vault of 21 meters anyway....the stained glass windows are surprising...no period of course but some ....Asians...not in the best taste!! tour of the dormitories...of the parlor and the office-dining room-library...The Romanesque door served as the main entrance and en route to the magnificent rose gardens and terraces as quiet as the rest is noisy...to start and finish a shop of souvenirs more or less interesting...a very popular restaurant in the south which leaves a little field for others in the church in particular...

We visited the site independently and were not disappointed! They are full of eyes both inside and outside; the abbey is very well preserved and maintained, the explanations are clear. You can take your time strolling through the gardens to finish, in short I highly recommend!

What a history since 1500 till our days with a great transformation by an art colector of a abbaye in an art museum. Beautiful gardens and a hiking road to the top of the mountain stating from the abbaye. Very good printed explanations. Just one down side as it’s located in a narrow valley the mobile network doesn’t work for contact less payments. Buy your ticket before getting there and have cash for the good products shop.

Evening visit with lively evenings, beautiful counters and beautiful staging. Can be a little complicated for young children. Nice ride. I would have liked a little extra free time to visit because following the group and the history you do not see everything and do not have time to appreciate everything. Very nice building to visit and the explanations are really to have to understand the evolutions of this place. Stained glass windows with family members of 20th century owners.....

Very beautiful abbey, a sumptuous place! The setting is very nice and relaxing. The state of conservation of the abbey is remarkable. Regarding our visit we made it on a Wednesday morning in August with family with young children, under a bright sun. Be careful the stroller does not pass everywhere and is forbidden for access to the garden which are arranged on terrace. Free parking. Admission of 14€ for adults. Toilet inside the site. Visit in 02:00 see more if you want to enjoy the beauty of the place. Restaurant on site that we have not tested. Small shop at the entrance of the site. Too bad we could not take the path to the lookout with his cross because of the high risk of fire.
