Loire Valley - 30 km from Vendome - Castle Accommodations - Chateau de la Barre
Hidden away in the midst of a 100 acre private park of meadows and woods, between Chartres and Tours, near Vendôme and Le Mans, Chateau de La Barre lies at the entrance to the Loir and Loire valleys. The Count and Countess Guy and Marnie de Vanssay, 20th generation of the family in the same location, warmly welcome you into their home, where elegance and authenticity meet with comfort and modernity. The grand salon, adorned with an ornate chandelier, ancestral portraits and magnificient antiques, transmits a quiet air of history; the salon rose, built in the 16th century, combines cozyness by the fire with beautiful furnishings. The 14th century “pièce à feu” with its' monumental hearth now houses a bar, satellite TV and billiard. In the great dinning room, masterpiece of the 18th century with its’ imposing dresser, 4 course candlelit dinners accompanied by a special selection of wines, are hosted three times a week.
All the bedrooms and suites, each somptuously and individually decorated with beautiful period antiques, offer splendid views out onto the XVIth century fortifications, the vast garden, the pond and valley beyond.
During the day, simply enjoy relaxed, aristocratic living, or else visit the picturesque villages with their manor houses and XIIth century romanesque churches repleat with frescoes, vineyards or further afield, the famed Loire valley castles. Superb riding and golf in the vicinity
