Elegant little 17th-century castle on the border of Anjou and Touraine Just thirty minutes from Saumur, in a charming village in the heart of a preserved environment, this characterful property displays all the grace of classical architecture in a landscaped park of 3.5 hectares. The main manor house offers seven reception and living areas, including three bedrooms and two suites. Two separate, carefully restored stone houses complete the complex with a total of eight additional rooms, including four bedrooms intended for refined tourist accommodation, in close proximity to the renowned vineyards of Saumur and Chinon. The estate is organized around a double entrance courtyard with its old chestnut trees, a carefully designed and wooded English-style park, a real small arboretum, and a swimming pool discreetly nestled in the greenery. The proximity of the Royal Abbey of Fontevraud, a major cultural site in the Loire Valley, gives this place a special appeal. The abbey houses the Pays-de-la-Loire Regional Cultural Center, which hosts concerts, exhibitions, and conferences, as well as a contemporary art museum displaying over 800 works. A place where hospitality is an art of living, at the crossroads of history, nature and culture.
