Claude is happy to share the history of his chateau. He has spent many years restoring a site that contains remnants of a Celtic oppidum and a medieval priory. He will even take you into the labyrinth of tunnels that run underground and contain the secrets of its past. This is not a typical hotel but if you want a holiday that is both relaxing and interesting, peaceful and stimulating, fascinating and different, then the stately rooms and stunningly beautiful setting of this chateau come highly recommended. A great part of the chateau is troglodyte. An archway leads to a fountain, beautiful shrubs, flowers and trees in a beautiful park of 3 ha, a pool with waterfall & barbecue. Reside in your themed choice such as King Arthur, Roméo, Juliet, Blue Beard, 1001 nights....they are rooms or apartments (with kitchen and living area). Breakfast/Dinner available on request, served in the 12th Century Chapel. The chateau makes a perfect location for weddings, family celebrations and seminars.
