Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Nestled among Sancerre's rolling vineyards and scenic countryside, this 19th-century castle is truly a one-of-a-kind stay. Though your host has preserved the château's stunning character features, it's anything but old-fashioned. You can work in the wood-panelled library, sip cocktails by the fire in one of the four drawing rooms, or climb the twisting stairs to one of the sumptuous bedrooms for some much-needed R&R. Outside, you'll have three hectares of gardens to explore, offering everything from a wood-fired hot tub, sauna, and fitness room to a heated swimming pool – not to mention many picturesque trails leading through the woodlands. With a live-in concierge on hand to arrange wine tastings and other extras, an unforgettable holiday awaits.

About France
You could easily take a lifetime’s worth of French holidays and still feel like you haven’t scratched the nation’s surface. The most visited country in the world, France has long inspired artists, revolutionaries, dreamers, and bons vivants with its storybook landscapes, artistic treasures, and cultural idiosyncrasies. Paris is, of course, the country’s glittering centrepiece but there are countless beauty spots worth discovering outside of the City of Light. Sun yourself...
