THE PRESTIGEOUS FAMILY SUITES AND ELEGANT DOUBLE KING SIZE AND TWIN ROOMS IN THE CHÂTEAU ARE ALL INDIVIDUALLY DECORATED, EACH ONE WITH IMPORTANT XVIIIth CENTURY ANTIQUES, DESIGNER FABRICS AS WELL AS ALL MODERN COMFORTS. THE CONFIGURATION OF MANY OF THE ROOMS, WHICH CAN BE COMMUNICATING OR HAVE A POSSIBLE SINGLE ATTACHED, MAKE THE CHÂTEAU ALSO IDEALLY SUITED FOR FAMILY REUNIONS.

All the rooms have king size double beds (or twin), flowers from the garden, portwine, and 5 overlook the garden and park. All have en suite bathrooms, tea and coffee making facilities, Chopard toiletries, plush towels and bathrobes and a hair dryer.

Reserving both rooms in the same prestigious apartment offers more space for your friends, your family or just for yourself. Why not privatising a wing of the chateau for the most exclusive sojourn you can dream of.
