1. Introduction :
Our castle is a testimony to French elegance and charm. Located less than one hour and a half west of Paris in the beautiful Normandy countryside our castle is available year round for rent in its entirety to extended families, friends and groups travelling together.
We also rent out the castle occasionally for seminars, receptions, wedding parties, photo and film shoots etc. Exclusivity is guaranteed as we only accept guests in small groups one at a time. Therefore all the château facilities will be for you and your family or friends to enjoy as your home when you are here.
There has been a castle at this location overlooking the Normandy countryside for over a thousand years. The actual castle built in 1577 is a magnificent Renaissance edifice built on the foundations of a previous medieval castle fort. Steeped in history our castle offers our special guests the chance to experience the ultimate luxury of a unique private country escape in a quiet haven of unsurpassed beauty and regal surroundings.
The castle is situated in a private estate comprising 55 acres of verdant land in the quiet undisturbed countryside and not far from the striking Normandy coastline. The château has 8 cosy bedrooms ranging from large suites to single children’s rooms, a maximum of 20 guests can sleep at the castle at any one time. Each bedroom is exquisitely furnished with a combination of French-sourced antiques, hand-made upholstery and sumptuous bedding. Sleep like royalty on high-end mattresses, duvets, pillows and Egyptian cotton linens. All the bedrooms are situated on the two upper floors of the castle and have beautiful views over the grounds and neighbouring countryside. For security reasons and for the comfort of everyone the entire castle interior is a no smoking zone. Smoking however is tolerated outside with precaution. No pets are allowed to stay but we do welcome well trained children!
The castle boats two impressive main salons located on the castle ground floor. The large 900 square foot Grand Salon is adorned with a magnificent 16th century stone-carved monumental fireplace, huge oak timbered ceilings
and incredibly rare 500 year old original Renaissance wood carved panelling. The beautiful Versailles styled Salle a Manger / dining room can seat up to 30 people and makes a breathtaking backdrop for that special banquet or reception. The natural lighting in the castle is splendid even during the short winter days. The castle itself is over 6000 square feet in size, has 42 individual rooms not including the cellars and attics.
We offer wonderful catering services to accommodate any sized group and are delighted to create any custom menus our guests should require including everything from signature breakfasts and picnic lunches to fine dinner banquets, cheese tastings, cooking classes and even theme dinners. A wide and varied selection of drinks are available.
