Found the garden more interesting than the interior of the castle.

Nice

Toilet on site, water point, the best!

Very pleasant track, slightly monotonous but it's great

Perfect for taking a short break, water point nearby

Bring a light jacket; it can get cold inside. For those with vision problems, don't be afraid; the lighting isn't too bright.

The residence of the Marquis d'Huxelles, built between 1606 and 1625, is home to the most sumptuous Louis XIII apartment preserved in France. Fireplaces, ceilings and wood panelling were painted, carved and gilded with sumptuous exuberance for the favourite of Queen Marie de Medici. Paintings, tapestries and period furniture complete this seductive evocation of "château life" at the time of the "Three Musketeers". The tour also reveals a monumental stone staircase (20 metres high), an 18th century kitchen and the opulent 1900s salons of an opera director. The garden, in the spirit of the Baroque period, offers 12 hectares of flowerbeds, a large boxwood labyrinth with aviary-belvedere, vegetable garden, green theatre, water features and remarkable trees.

Occupied by bats, this tunnel is obviously often closed to protect them.
