Chateau remains in its juice but a beautiful journey in history and a very pleasant and kind hostess we had a good time in this chateau July 2022

The first time I went to this castle was for my sister's wedding. You can rent the open courtyard part, the outside to park the cars there as well as a covered ground floor part for storage and access to the toilets. Since then, I went back to visit the floors. A numbered booklet takes us to rooms all different in theme, but also in decor. You can go from a Louis XIII bedroom with wood parquet flooring and a beautifully painted ceiling to a small stone kitchen. I know there have been major restoration efforts but there is still a lot to do. There are big cracks, the objects are sometimes piled up, the explanation panels are tedious to read (too much small text and sometimes illegible), little light and a timer that plunges us into darkness. However, this castle has a lot of potential. A good time spent all the same and which takes us some time to go. Diversity of decoration. Portrait room, school room, archery room, period machinery room, period clothing room, bedroom, kitchen, cheese room, shoemaking room with period boots, etc.
