Superb Renaissance-era castle with magnificent gardens.

nice

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.

This castle from the beginning of the 17th century can be visited, both for its gardens and for its interior. You will notably discover a monumental stone staircase and a well-preserved Louis XIII apartment. Outside, a large boxwood labyrinth, a green theater, ponds and flower beds will delight young and old alike.

The Château de Cormatin, in Saône-et-Loire, is a magnificent 17th century castle. Adorned with beautiful gardens and opulent interiors, it offers visitors a glimpse of the grandeur and elegance of the past, making it a must-see destination in the region.

Even without a guide entertaining with shady, tranquil places to stay and not overpriced

A beautiful, park-like garden with everything that goes with it: wilderness, flower borders, labyrinth, former volaire and fantastically trimmed yew trees. A place to relax 😍

Wonderful old romanic church in Bray. Outside you have a nice view over the valley to Taizé and the mountains.
