Guests describe Chateau de La Lanette as a ‘home from home’ and, given that most of us don’t live in a 19th century Chateau on the foothills of the Pyrenean Mountains, it’s clearly the friendly ambiance and not the Chateau’s grandeur or stunning location that creates this impression!
Russell and Heather are happy to offer advice on days out, where to go and what to see and best of all the three ready made playmates are always on hand to share an adventure whether it be in the well equipped playroom or in the large walled children’s garden. Parents can rest assured that the 14ft trampoline, ride-ons, sandpit, small pool, climbing frames and swings are always very popular with the many ‘friends’ that their little ones will meet on their holiday.
The guest rooms share access to the elegant dining room, playroom, gardens and large salon with its comfy sofas, open log fire and extensive DVD collection. Perfect for relaxing with a glass of wine from the complimentary bar when the little ones are safely tucked up in bed.
Five nights a week a delicious home cooked children’s supper and 3-course adult’s supper are provided, served in the beautiful wood panelled dining room which is within baby monitor range of all the rooms. Chateau de la Lanette is not just a great place to stay to explore the stunning Pyrenees but a sociable relaxing experience for both adults and little ones alike.
St Julien is positioned at the front of the house and boasts two private balconies, one of which overlooks the Pyrenees towards the beautiful Spa town of Bagneres De Luchon and the second which is accessed via the bathroom and faces south. The room itself is full of character with a lovingly restored original ceiling, parquet flooring and beautiful marble fireplace. There is a romantic, draped, four poster bed and plenty of space for a cot and or child bed. The bathroom is well equipped with both a bath and shower plus a handy heated towel rail. Complimentary toiletries are also included.
PLEASE NOTE: Prices are based on a family of 2 + child (2-10yrs – a disc of 50€ will apply to under 2s) staying 7 nights and include: daily continental breakfast, children’s supper on 5 nights, adult’s suppers on 5 nights, unlimited drinks fridge including boxed wines, beers, soft drinks, 1 night’s babysitting.

James DamaaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They provided a great service helping us select a family holiday which ended up being amazing! Will use again! Colette SintonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were lucky enough to have Vicki's expertise and support in finding our family holiday in Zakynthos this summer. After finding out exactly what we hoped for and needed, Vicki was able to find our perfect holiday - we were so looking forward to it and couldn't have been more delighted. Vicki's communication was informative and proactive throughout - our happiness with the arrangements was of the utmost importance to her and I felt I could get in touch with any queries. These were addressed swiftly and efficiently. I really felt like she went the extra mile in helping us plan our holiday and ensuring we were comfortable with all aspects. Highly recommend!! MAGGIE OAKLANDTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used baby friendly bolt holes to book a trip to Portugal. Tori was really helpful in helping us book, manage transfers, etc. On our departure day we had unexpected passport issues - Tori was straight on to the hotel and arranged for us to stay a couple of days later than planned. She was brilliant and really diffused the stress of a heart sink situation. Would definitely book with these guys again. Hannah RoseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Since our daughter was born 2.5 years ago, we have booked every single trip away with BFB. We have never been disappointed, and I have pretty high expectations when it comes to holidays! They respond so quickly to every query and have got us some great deals. I trust them fully with what are such crucial decisions about our much needed holidays and recommend them to every parent I know! I would be lost without them! Tom DavisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The matching service was really useful Chris ReddingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I submitted some basic details on their form on a Sunday evening and Tori got back to me the next day. We exchanged several emails and spoke on the phone. Tori was well informed, responsive and thorough. I was able to book a place that looks great with her help. It was great to have help from someone who specialises in family holidays, as our requirements are pretty different now compared to before having kids. I don't actually think I've ever had a personal service to help book a holiday before. Maybe this is what it was like when people used to go to the travel agent on the high street... Thanks Tori and BFB, would recommend and use again. Jessica TaylorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found Baby Friendly Boltholes by doing a Google search, and completed their online form with my holiday requirements. They got back to me very quickly with some great recommendations which were also very cost effective. Unfortunately due to a change in circumstances we're unable to book at this time, but I will definitely go back to Baby Friendly Boltholes when we're in a position to move forward with our booking. Thanks! Joel DaltonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really fast and easy, available on a Sunday to complete our booking. Highly recommended Samantha ClarkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Juliet at babyboltholes enough, from our initial enquiry right through to booking, she was responsive, understanding and patient. I didn’t even know where to start booking our first family holiday, Juliet took onboard all our needs and found us our dream trip. 5 star service for busy parents!
