La Ferme Berger

We stayed overnight with 2 couples at La Ferme Berger in Ardillats on 29 September. We had high expectations, partly because of the romantic photo of the outside of the farm. Upon arrival, we had to park our car outside the grounds in a public car park, despite the fact that there was enough space. The female owner also did not seem to be in a cheerful mood. That mood did not improve during our stay. The male owner received us nicely. However, the rooms were very disappointing. The bathroom only had a shower curtain and the toilet was open in the room. We do not find that very fresh. The dinner was very disappointing. The starter was just some salad with two pieces of bread. The main course consisted of a boiled potato, some carrot puree and a few slices of sour pork sausage. There was really no taste to it. The breakfast was not much better. The bread (which the B&B praises so much) was really very old. It was inedible. The orange juice was fake. They did have home-made jam. But otherwise the breakfast was truly shameful. We read that given the price this cannot be done differently according to the owners. That seems nonsense to me. Other Chambre d'Hôtes, in the same price range, can do it and it is not that difficult to please your guests. We were lucky that there were other friendly French guests. They made it even more pleasant. Overall I think the price/quality ratio of the Chambre d'Hôtes is very bad compared to the experience we have had with other accommodations. We will therefore not come back here and we believe we have written a sincere review.
