Family hotels and homes in Villeferry

We stayed one night at Algranate – Maison du Tisserand as a family of three (plus our miniature schnauzer) on a road trip from London to Rome, and it was truly unforgettable. The village is picture-perfect – peaceful, charming, and full of storybook beauty. We took a lovely walk through the village and enjoyed a glass of wine and a treat at the local sweet factory – a hidden gem. On arrival, we were warmly greeted by the owners, Marie and Gautier, and given perfect parking right outside. Our room was spacious and beautifully set up, with a cosy little nook just right for our 4-year-old. The bathroom was modern and generously sized, and the walk up the tower to our room felt like something out of a fairytale. We had originally planned to eat out at a nearby restaurant, but we changed our minds and decided to dine at the B&B – and we’re so glad we did. There was no menu – just a fresh, seasonal, beautifully prepared dinner that was also thoughtfully tailored for our daughter. We had an aperitif of traditional Kir, followed by excellent local wines, and an unforgettable meal. Unfortunately, during our walk, our dog was bitten by another dog that was off-leash. It wasn’t a serious injury, but when we told Marie and Gautier, they were incredibly concerned and kind. They immediately drove us to their trusted vet and insisted on covering all the costs – even though the incident had nothing to do with them. Their care, compassion, and sense of responsibility was far beyond anything we expected, and we are so grateful. The next morning, we were treated to a gorgeous breakfast – fresh fruit, lemon water, homemade mini scones (which they encouraged us to take for the road), and the most delicious hot chocolate for our daughter – so good I added it to my coffee! We only stayed one night, but we left feeling as though we had discovered something truly special.

Searching for an overnight stay, we stumbled upon this small hotel 'lost' in a small village along the canal. The hosts are very welcoming and easy-going. There is a wide choice of beers and wine, and they serve very good home-made food. The reception area has drinks and snacks that you can take and write on your own bill if the hosts are not available to serve you. The room was spacious with a beautiful view over the countryside. Breakfast was very nice, all guests together at the large kitchen table, with a wide choice of food and drinks.

La situation, l'aspect cosy

cute small house in a lovely village

Everything was excellent! Spacious, clean, good location, good facilities and attention to detail. Joanna was helpful and welcoming. Great value for money.

The room was very large and comfortable, in a beautiful country house with garden. Breakfast was plentiful. The hotel is a short walk into town. And the pizza restaurant next door is perfect for dinner after a long day sightseeing.

The house is spacious and well equipped perfectly located in a small historic village that is very peaceful.

Beautiful property, gorgeously done out with lovely internal architecture. Spotlessly clean and comfortable beds. Ample parking outside and a lovely garden for our dogs - and the host did not charge us any extra for them. He was very helpful and kind, 10/10. The location is perfect, a few minutes walk into the town which is beautiful. Would 100% recommend this place!
