La Chapelle Saint Martin has a friendly homely and personable feel. We stayed 3-nights in a spacious ground floor Deluxe Suite with a very comfortable King Bed and stunning views of the ground’s lawns and lake. Our main reason for selecting La Chapelle Saint Martin was to visit Oradour-sur-Glane where in WW2 the Nazis massacred the entire village of 642 men, women, and children before burning the village to the ground. After the war, the then-General Charles de Gaulle decreed that the ruined village would remain untouched as a reminder of Nazi brutality. Very moving. We also visited Adrien Dubouché National Museum which has the largest public collection of Limoges porcelain in the world. Amazing, and relieved us of quite a deal of cash at their shop for gifts for family and friends. Breakfast and Dinner were absolutely first class and the Soufflé was scrumptious! Staff that pampered us included – Annalee, Maison, Paul (Sommelier) – thanks for the tour of the cellar
