Pays de la Loire Cottage rental.
Since the eleventh century the Château stands on the banks of the river Layon, a tributary of the Loire. A significant night in the Château's history was, when King Henry IV slept here on a journey south. It is through castles such as this that the history and culture of the region live on and the Château offers you a unique opportunity to experience a part of French life. Having been meticulously restored, it offers all the modern comforts, while still retaining its original grandeur. The Château's impressive character is preserved in its two-metre-thick walls, high ceilings, and seventeenth and eighteenth century antique furniture. From the Château you can enjoy views over the river and surrounding countryside.

Je ne saurais trop recommander ce château, quel endroit incroyable! Les propriétaires n'auraient pas pu faire plus pour nous aider à nous installer et à nous organiser avec une patience et une aide infinies, tout en nous laissant un espace pour profiter de la propriété. Nous étions là pour mes 40 ans, avec 25 personnes à travers le château et des gites - tout le monde a adoré l'espace et ses environs. Je ne pouvais pas souhaiter un meilleur anniversaire et un meilleur emplacement, ils avaient vraiment pensé à tout. Merci beaucoup! !

The whole chateau is so tasteful and we made full use if the beautiful dining hall but also enjoyed dining in the beautiful grounds on several evenings. We were there for some very warm days so very much enjoyed the sparkling clean pool for cooling off. The owners were very accommodating and were on hand to give us information, recommend local attractions and catering and arrange transfers from the train station in Angers. I can’t recommend this Castel enough, should it be for a party, a reunion or for a beautiful wedding venue. The attention to detail is impressive and the atmosphere is very relaxing.
