Interior & Grounds

The castle, built in the 15th century with 19th century additions has been restored to suit modern requirements – effective central heating for winter warmth, for example – and has been decorated with unfussy minimalist chic. It combines the pleasures of wide-open spaces with handy access to the village in which it stands.

There is plenty of space for active children – 10 hectares, with the fun of the wooded River Creuse actually running through the grounds. There is a pleasant terrace at the back of the Chateau, from which to view the sunset, with a g & t to hand. For al fresco eating, there is seating for 28 at three large tables on the roomy terrace area beside the pool and there is a barbecue beside the pool house. The Chateau is well-equipped with outdoor amenities – garden furniture, tennis courts (which can be hired for €20 per week), boules, volleyball, badminton, footballs and a table tennis table.
