Château de Chéronne

Tuffé-Val-de-la-Chéronne, France

Château de Chéronne was originally built in the 14th century, but nothing remains of original wooden building. The gatehouse, built around 1490, is the oldest part today. The Renaissance style chateau dates mainly from the 16th century and is surrounded by a moat (later filled).

Today Château de Chéronne is used for weddings and other events.

My son got married at Chateau de Chéronne last July and it was 2 unforgettable days! The property is magnificent, very well maintained, lots of comfortable accommodation in the castle as well as in pretty outbuildings allowing families and close friends to stay. The reception tent is also very beautiful. But above all, above all, the owners are charming and Ludovic who was our contact was from the beginning to the end of the process, available, efficient, understanding and really very, very friendly! I recommend with eyes closed or rather wide open as the place is beautiful and the organization of the wedding simplified by the support of Ludovic!

A magical place for a wedding and as part of a yoga retreat the place is surprising in its serenity, simple beauty, with large green spaces, buildings that speak "stories", this place has a truly beautiful soul. Lose yourself in the vegetable garden... a little English air reigns there. A real change of scenery 2 hours from Paris.

We rented one house in the farm right next to the castle. It was super clean and super comfortable. Lots of glasses, kitchen utensils, and that you need.

Château de Chantilly

The Château de Chantilly comprises two attached buildings: the Petit Château built around 1560 for Anne de Montmorency, and the Grand Château, which was destroyed during the French Revolution and rebuilt in the 1870s. Owned by the Institut de France, the château houses the Musée Condé. It is one of the finest art galleries in France and is open to the public.

The estate"s connection with the Montmorency family began in 1484. The first mansion (now replaced by the Grand Château) was built in 1528–1531 for the Constable Anne de Montmorency by Pierre Chambiges. The Petit Château was also built for him, around 1560, probably by Jean Bullant. In 1632, after the death of Henri II, it passed to the Grand Condé who inherited it through his mother, Charlotte Marguerite de Montmorency.

Several interesting pieces of history are associated with the château during the 17th century.
