Magnificent Neo Renaissance style Château, built in 1911 by the architect Des Reynaud, with imagination and exuberance, set in a hamlet.
The Château is set in a park of 3 hectares (7.41 acres), the south façade of renaissance inspiration, with a touch of the Château of Azay-le-Rideau.
This beautiful demure is run as “Chambre d’Hôtes” with a Gîte which can accommodate 8 people. There is a covered, heated swimming pool and a gym. Ideal for someone wanting a change in their life, away from the rat-race and into the peace and quiet of the countryside with the desire to share their county abode with guests
