Although the castle is private and not always accessible to the public, the interior is known to be richly decorated with luxurious details such as high ceilings, ornate fireplaces, and grand staircases. The halls and bedrooms reflect the opulent style of the Belle Époque.

The castle is surrounded by extensive gardens designed in a formal French style, with fountains, ponds, and tree-lined walks. These gardens were carefully designed to complement the grandeur of the main building.
