DISNEY FOR METAL HEADS!🔥🇮🇪🔥 The best metal festival in the world! Plenty of bars, places to eat, water points, toilets. It's has everything nailed down. 4 days of blistering heat with a incredible line up, never disappointed, loads of stages, it's perfect! Just be careful not to drink pints of wine!

Awesome festival, the foos were awsome !!! Metallica on far too late starting at 23:45 till 02.00 !! Food options around the site were good, the toilets need to be doubled to bring the queue down. Awesome staging around the place, loved the Lemy Statue 👌🏼 and all the flames going off. Would've liked to see the buses run through the parking filed to drop off but in the whole a fantastic Rock festival. Nice touch with the beer keg guys walking around with nice cold beer ontap, all sorts of Rock, alternative and black rock, stayed well away from the mosh pits and especially the largest Wall of Death ever.. We'll be back though !!

Well deserved been call the best metal festival in the world

Great festival. Interesting lineup, a lot of good bands. Camp space is big, signs are everywhere, info stations are all around. Variety of food and merchants, nice atmosphere and plenty of additional attractions. If you like metal music, you should not miss it! Definitely recommend!

I have lived some of the best experiences of my life. Worth the journey and the road. Amazing people, nice atmosphere. Food is around 10 to 16€. Beer 6 to 8€ (in 2023). Event Organisation 10/10, I mean you can find everything you want Some tips : Parking is 30min (on foot) from the festival, very hard to leave it (it took us 2h to get out the parking spot once the festival was over !!!). There is a bus (parking-festival)but we never took it. Don’t try crowdsurfing too much, choose the best moment because some will drop you down the way 😂😂.

I am for the first time to Hellfest. I have been over the last 15 years to several festivals (Wacken Open Air, Rock im Park, Rock for People, Lollapalooza, Download and so on) per year in Europe and I am surprised about several things. 1. Where are the water points for each camping ground? At every larger festival, which cost more than 200€, it is almost obligatory to have at least one water point in each camping ground, so here blue, white, orange, and so on. I could not find one water point near these camping grounds red, blue, white, yellow, orange and so on. The weather will be +30°C. This is insane! And it is pathetic and not worthy for 350€! 2. Where are the showers? As explained above, every larger festival has several water points as well as shower points at each camping area. At Hellfest I have found only the small open shower, so everyone can see you showering while eating in the metal corner ;-). I have waited for 1 hour just to get inside at 2 am, so at night. Furthermore it is a slightly stupid idea to put the shower area into this dusty metal corner area. After showering I was dusty and would like to shower again. 3. It is not allowed to cook? Why is that? At every other festival camping ground are you allowed to cook. Or is this festival only for the capitalistic revenue and not about the music? ;) So up to now, in case of camping, showers and water it's a total disaster. So let's see what the rest of the organization of the infield brings as surprises.

Great festival with a really versatile selection of bands to cover a wide variety of the subgenres of rock and metal. Camping was ok, but a bit loud at night - as expected. Toilets were clean enough, most of the time. Private and public showers were available but warm water was limited/non existent.

You can experience a wonderful tranquility to these immersive gardens ... One not to be missed. Free to explore and leave revived. Enjoy. 🙂

Magnificent Italian style chateau in the west if Loire valley in Clisson. Free entry

It is really Nice town near Nantes

Expo comtemporaine

Cool

Great wine

(Translated by Google) This area is very beautiful and pleasant to explore for beautiful walks and discoveries. Many works are scattered throughout the park. Completes the visit to the village of Clisson very well. Part of the “trip to Nantes”. (Original) Ce domaine est très beau et agréable à parcourir pour belles promenades et découvertes. Beaucoup d'œuvres sont dispersées dans le parc. Complète très bien la visite du village de Clisson. Fait parti du" voyage à Nantes ".

Unfortunately, it was closed when I happened to be passing by. It doesn't matter; it still seems like a great place to visit, especially considering the tranquility of this beautiful town. Maybe next time.

Beautiful historical town. If you can visit while the masquerade parade is on in May!

Chateau de Clisson is the centrepiece of Clisson proper with a wonderful array of old cobbled streets, undercover market & lovely walks along the Sevre river. It is in the middle of quite extensive wine making region & should be added to any itinerary when visiting the Nantes area.

We recommend taking the guided tour There’s a beautiful path from the historic town into a nice picnic area by the water.

Charming small city Clisson, magnificent views, château it is mostly ancient walls but anyways very interesting to visit. Must see.

A great old piece of architecture, still being repaired, wonderful views over the river and down the valley. The original château fell into disrepair and was purchased by an artist who turned it into a feature of the gardens so it's basically lots of walls and very few rooms.

So happy we decided last minute to stop at this castle, especially considering it was a special weekend with free entry and demonstrations. These are ruins, so you cant really enter a building and there isnt anything available to offer explainations so if its possible, you should take a guide.

An elegant and refined church. It's worth a visit.

Looks like a italien church. Its very rare this kind of church in France

Scolded by priest!

Great place! Great Liturgy!

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful church with an architectural style a little different from what we are used to seeing. There is also a lovely fresco inside which depicts ancient inhabitants. Otherwise the surroundings of the church are not bad either with beautiful cypresses and a work of art further down. To pray the place is very quiet, there are churches where this is unfortunately no longer the case. In short, a beautiful monument to be appreciated in all its splendor. (Original) Très belle église d'un style architectural un peu différent de ce qu'on a l'habitude de voir. Il y a aussi une jolie fresque à l'intérieur qui représente des anciens habitants. Sinon l'entourage de l'église est mal non plus avec de beaux cyprès et une œuvre d'art plus bas. Pour prier l'endroit est très calme, il y a des églises où ce n'est plus le cas malheureusement. Bref un beau monument à apprécier dans toute sa splendeur.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful little Catholic church, we went to visit it at the end of the day and the stained glass windows made the atmosphere inside very calm. From the outside, the church is also very beautiful, I nevertheless find that the town hall could highlight it even more. (Original) Très belle petite église catholique, on est allé la visiter en fin de journée et les vitraux rendaient l'ambiance à l'intérieur très calme. De l'extérieur, l'église est également très belle, je trouve néanmoins que la mairie pourrait encore plus la mettre en avant.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful church with beautiful parquet flooring, which is quite rare. Worth a visit. (Original) Très belle église avec un beau parquet ce qui est assez rare. Mérite d'être visitée.

Chateau cancelled our wine tour 30 mins before we arrived today. We booked late yesterday and availability was shown. They emailed early today to say the tour was in French only and gave us choice to cancel. We replied in french to say one of us spoke French and would translate for the other and that we did not wish to cancel. We also spoke to the tour booking site to confirm we did not want to cancel. 30 mins ahead of our arrival via train and a long walk. They told us they had cancelled as the person who was conducting our tour had gone home! This was really really disappointing as we had booked this for our anniversary. We felt it was really bad customer service and wonder if we would have been treated better if we were French. Thank you Chateau for ruining our anniversary!

It was a lovely experience at a beautifull vineyard, pleasant company & tasty wines !!!

(Translated by Google) Discovery of the estate via gift vouchers offered with visit and tasting classes. An experience that allowed us to discover wines that we might never have known about, both in terms of their quality and prices and the explanations. I highly recommend. (Original) Découverte du domaine via bon cadeaux offerts avec visite et cours de dégustation. Une expérience qui nous a permis de découvrir des vins que l’on n’aurait peut être jamais connus tant par leur qualité et leur tarifs que par les explications. je recommande vivement.

(Translated by Google) Tour and wine tasting. Our "Guide," a fourth-generation member of the Duret family, is passionate about his work, and he makes it clear to you during his two-hour tour. He introduces you to the vineyards and the different grape varieties that his family has been cultivating and developing for several generations. The tour of the winery and the presentation of the different wines before the tasting are very comprehensive. You will come away from this experience with a solid foundation in oenology. The tasting is interesting because it's rare to have the opportunity to discover so many different grape varieties "by hand" from the same grower. 14 in total! Muscadet, Sauvignon, Riesling, Cabernet... Personally, I'm not a fan of white wines from this region, but I left with a completely different approach. We tasted 10 wines, and the box you'll be taking home contains wines you haven't tasted before, allowing you to have tried almost the entire range of wines from the Duret family and their Château du Bois Huaut vineyard. So, after tasting, I gave in to the purchase of their late harvest vintages, "Le Vin des Anges" (The Wine of Angels), and their "Alto Blanc," which I would describe as a very nice cross between Champagne and Clairette de Die. Less dry than Champagne and less sweet than Clairette. A wonderful discovery. I can only recommend this activity for both novices and seasoned wine lovers, as the guide is very skilled at his craft. I look forward to returning to add to my cellar. (Original) Visite et dégustation des vins. Notre "Guide" 4eme génération de la famille Duret, est un passionné de son métier et il vous le fait bien comprendre pendant les 2h de sa prestation. Il vous présente les vignes et les différents cépages que sa famille entretien et developpe depuis plusieurs générations. La visite du chais et la présentation des différents vins avant la dégustation est très complète en explication. Vous ressortirez de cette expérience avec de bonnes bases d'œnologie. La dégustation est intéressante car vous aurez peu souvent l'occasion de découvrir au sein d'un même récoltant " à la main " autant de cépages différents. 14 au total !!! Du muscadet, du sauvignon, du riesling, du cabernet... Pour ma part peu fan de blanc de cette région, je suis sorti de celle ci avec une approche complètement différente. Nous avons goûté 10 Vins et le cartons avec lequel vous repartez contient des vins que vous n'aurez pas goûté , vous permettant d'avoir quasi essayé toute la panoplie de la Famille Duret et son vignoble du Château du bois Huaut. J'ai donc cèdé après dégustation à l'achat de leurs cuvés vendanges tardives " le vin des anges" et de leur "Alto Blanc " que je définirai comme un tres jolie entre Champagne et clairette de Die. Moins sec que le champagne et moins sucré que la clairette. Une très belle découverte. Je ne peux que recommander cette activité pour les novices comme pour les chevronnés, le guide étant très performant sur son métier. Au plaisir de revenir compléter ma cave .

(Translated by Google) We had the privilege of being the first to hold our business seminar at the Bois-Huaut estate. What a welcome!!! We were received superbly by Laëtitia and Luis who allowed us to work in superb conditions. The day went very well thanks to excellent preparation by Laëtitia who took the time to understand our needs and did everything to ensure that we were productive. Lunch had a wow effect on everyone with a discovery of Lebanese flavors. Finally, the day ended in style with Luis who took us into his world of wine, with its history and the specificities of the estate. A very nice tasting. I recommend 100%. (Original) Nous avons eu le privilège d'être les 1ers à réaliser notre séminaire d'entreprise au domaine du Bois-Huaut. Quel accueil !!! Nous avons été superbement bien reçus par Laëtitia et Luis qui nous ont permis de travailler dans de superbes conditions. La journée s'est très bien déroulée grâce à une préparation au top par Laëtitia qui a pris le temps de comprendre nos besoins et a tout fait pour que nous soyons productifs. Le déjeuner a eu un effet waouh sur tout le monde avec une découverte des saveurs libanaises. Enfin, la journée s'est terminée en beauté avec Luis qui nous a emmené dans son monde du vin, avec son histoire et les spécificités du domaine. Une très belle dégustation. Je recommande à 100%.

(Translated by Google) A rather pleasant and enriching visit. We learned a lot, and enjoyed a top-notch tasting of some very good, high-quality products. I'll be back to pick up some more wine from you. Thanks again from Mayenne. (Original) Une visite plutôt très agréable, enrichissante. Nous avons appris beaucoup de choses, dégustation au top de très très bon produits de qualités je reviendrai chercher du vin chez vous. Merci encore de la Mayenne.

(Translated by Google) After an electric scooter ride through the vineyard (a very good experience), we had booked an initiation/tasting. What a surprise when we arrived: a busload of Chinese people, camera in hand, in the vines. We had imagined a quiet afternoon at the estate, but it was a failure. As for the initiation/tasting, Luis is certainly passionate, but two hours listening to him rant about his grandfathers and praising his production, all while holding his breath because the flow of speech is so high, was a bit too much for us. You have to sell, I hear that, but this was too much. More salesman or politician than winemaker, it seems. As for the tasting, only one Muscadet on the menu, which is a shame. Unfortunately, we were not seduced by the offer and left "empty-handed". Too bad. (Original) Après une balade en trottinette électrique dans la vignoble (très bonne expérience), nous avions booké une initiation/dégustation. Quelle surprise en arrivant, un bus de chinois, appareil photo à la main dans les vignes. Nous avions imaginés un après-midi au domaine tranquille, c'est raté. Pour ce qui est de l'initiation/dégustation, Luis est certes passionné, mais deux heures à l'écouter déblatérer des histoires sur ses grands pères et à venter sa production, le tout en apnée tellement le débit de parole est important, c'était un peu trop pour nous. Il faut bien vendre, je l'entend, mais là c'était too much. Plus commercial ou homme politique que vigneron il semblerait. Côté dégustation, un seul muscadet au programme, dommage. Nous n'avons malheureusement pas été séduit par la proposition et sommes repartit "les mains vides". Dommage.

Got turned away saying the table was reserved when I'm sure it wasn't (I was with kids) then the boss refused to serve me a coffee to go saying he was too busy with lunch service.. first time I think that's ever happened to me

I ordered a cappuccino and the owner was rude. The cappuccino was not a cappuccino. It was a small cup of basic coffee. Would not recommend

This place is an absolute scam! Better to avoid it if you don’t want to ruin your mood. When we sat down at a table with the kids and asked for some cold drinks—since it was over 30°C—they refused to serve us unless we also ordered food. An absolute disgrace.

(Translated by Google) What an unforgettable experience! Arriving simply for a drink, we had the privilege of sitting for 15 minutes watching the waiter royally ignore us. A real spectacle! When, after this fifteen-minute period of imposed meditation, I had the audacity to point out our long wait, the waiter, apparently very touchy, outright asked us to leave. The art of hospitality at its finest! If you're looking for a place where you're made to feel like an outsider from the moment you arrive, go for it; you won't be disappointed. (Original) Quelle expérience inoubliable ! Arrivés pour simplement boire un verre, nous avons eu le privilège de rester assis 15 minutes à admirer le serveur nous ignorer royalement. Un vrai spectacle ! Quand, après ce quart d’heure de méditation imposée, j’ai eu l’audace de faire remarquer notre longue attente, le serveur, apparemment très susceptible, nous a carrément demandé de partir. L’art de l’hospitalité à son plus haut niveau ! Si vous cherchez un endroit où on vous fait sentir de trop dès votre arrivée, foncez, vous ne serez pas déçus.

(Translated by Google) We stopped there for a quick lunch, very well located near the castle and the 2025 backpacker's guide.... but ultimately disappointed... not sure if the dishes were homemade, slice of pie and pizza reheated in the microwave, toilets and kitchen not very clean.... for 10€ the menu (1/4 pizza or pie + 1 bowl of green salad + 1 dessert of your choice). We will say that it does the job. (Original) Nous nous y sommes arrêtés pour déjeuner rapidement, très bien placé près du château et guide du routard 2025.... mais finalement déçus... pas certains que les plats soient faits maison, part de tarte et pizza réchauffés au micro onde, toilettes et cuisine peu propres....pour 10€ le menu ( 1/4 pizza ou tarte + 1 bol salade verte + 1 dessert au choix. Nous dirons que cela fait le job.

(Translated by Google) We are good customers but today we received very poor service, a tarte tatin that was not cooked at all and the owner, after complaining, asked us not to come back... lamentable, I remained polite despite everything... Avoid it anyway. Much better welcome under the market halls... Sorry despite everything (Original) Nous sommes des bons clients mais aujourd'hui très mal servi s une tarte tatin pas cuite du tout et le patron après réclamation nous invite à ne surtout pas revenir ... lamentable je suis resté poli malgré tout... A éviter de toute façon. Bien meilleur accueil sous les halles... Désolés malgré tout

(Translated by Google) Run away! Deplorable experience. Disrespectful staff. The kir was hot, we asked him politely to cool it down, he threw it away and refused to serve us anything else! "I can't meet the customers' demands" he said, also calling us liars! Change careers, the business is clearly not for you given the numerous comments! (Original) Fuyez ! Expérience déplorable. Personnel irrespectueux. Le kir était chaud, on lui demande gentiment de pouvoir le refroidir, il le jette et refuse de nous servir autre chose ! " je ne peux pas satisfaire aux exigences des clients" a t’il dit en nous traitant également de menteurs ! Changez de métier le commerce n’est manifestement pas fait pour vous vu les nombreux commentaires !

We came there at about 13 o'clock on Friday. The place was quite busy but the waitress immediately noticed us and assigned us a table. The waitress was very nice and professional. Although they don’t have a large palette of food, all the food was really delicious. Especially the desserts. The prices are also very reasonable. You can sit inside or outside. If you sit outside, you have a great view of the local castle.

Delicious food, at a really reasonable price. The setting is on the terrace immediately outside the very impressive castle. My only concern is what happens if it rains! Highly recommended.

top top top ! :)

Excellent

(Translated by Google) I had the opportunity to have lunch at Pollen during lunch time with a friend. The menu is short (a guarantee of quality and fresh produce) and the dishes are very tasty. Fanny welcomed us with a smile. I would come back with pleasure. ☺️ (Original) J'ai eu l'occasion de déjeuner chez Pollen sur le temps du déjeuner avec une amie. La carte est courte (gage de qualité et produits frais) et les plats sont très savoureux. Fanny nous a accueilli avec le sourire. J'y reviendrais avec plaisir. ☺️

(Translated by Google) An excellent address in Clisson! Rather than a classic plate, the restaurant offers "small portions"; you can choose between two or three. Fresh produce and generous portions (see photos). Warm welcome, relaxed atmosphere, and attentive service. A wonderful discovery; we'll definitely be back! (Original) Excellente adresse à Clisson ! Plutôt qu'une assiette classique, le restaurant propose des "petites portions", on choisit si l'on en prends 2 ou 3. Produits frais et assiettes généreuses (voir photos). Accueil chaleureux, ambiance détendue et service aux petits soins. Une très belle découverte, on reviendra sans hésiter !

(Translated by Google) Cuisine prepared with local and organic products. The atmosphere is pleasant. The dishes are good, but nothing special. There's only one dessert left on the menu! Egg custard! No substitutions allowed, which is a shame! (Original) Cuisine élaborée avec des produits locaux et bio. L ambiance est agréable, Les plats sont bons mais sans plus, Il ne reste plus qu un seul choix de dessert à la carte ! Une crème aux œufs ! Pas de substitution possible, dommage !

The food of the brunch and breakfast are just all surrounded by flies and it just gross how it keep stepping on the food

Very disappointed with our stay, sadly we will never book a room here again! To start with, our room key card didn't work and had to go back to reception to be given an actual key (looked like the door had been broken into). The sheets didn't seem very clean and found some hairs on the bedding. The shower controller was very stiff and had to get my partner to turn it on. We only had 1 towel and that was dirty and had nasty stains on which I only noticed after I got out of the shower so no choice but to use the dirty towel. I mentioned all the above to reception and didn't even get an apology. Absolutely appalling for the prices you're charging! It felt like I was staying in a hostel

The staff was very delightful and professional. The room was freezing, with no spare duvet! The music in the breakfast room horrendous and intrusive. The overall fell off the hotel is more of a 3 star. The building facade and entrepreneurs lobby are shabby and poorly designed.

If you are going to treat yourself then this Hotel in Clisson is a winner. Lovely large rooms. Beautiful river running along the back. Seating area to enjoy the amazing view and ambience. Also a decent sized swimming pool too onsite with a Spa jacuzzi etc just a few steps up the road. Food is fine cuisine (below a beetroot & pork starter and a rhubarb dessert).

Stunning location. Amazing views. Beautiful village. Hotel pretty good. Room wasn’t ready on arrival. Good breakfast. No interior bar seating area which is a shame.

I have just had the worst experience in any establishment that has the cheek to call itself an hotel. On a day out in you beautiful town, we were unfortunate enough to call at you hotel for refreshments. The surroundings were very pleasant on the balcony overlooking the river but the service and refreshments were abysmal. We ordered a bottle of water, an iced tea and a cappuccino coffee, of course the water and ice tea were fine, but the coffee had no resemblance to cappuccino at all. Firstly it was cold, it was poor coffee, it was served with not even a biscuit and as far as I could see it had no more than a splash of skimmed milk in it, which does not come under the heading of cappuccino coffee. On top of this it was only served with one sugar and when I asked for more I was served another ONE between her first finger and thumb. For this they had the cheek to charge me 10-70 euros

The temperature of our room was so hot, it was very uncomfortable. We had the thermostat on the lowest setting and it was still unbearable. The bed was also quite hard and uncomfortable. The breakfast however was good and the staff were nice.

Cold fries 🍟 . Wrap contents warm due to fridge cold wrap around meat

Almost no veggy options. Not even during the festival

Cold food, served by badly trained staff. This seems to be the norm for McDonalds these days.

Bad service, out of most beverages.

Fast food
