For an unforgettable family holiday or fairytale wedding, book Château Du Chevaliet, a magnificent 15th century castle in Brittany.
Beautifully located on a ridge overlooking a charming pastoral landscape, the estate comprises a stunning main château and three annexe buildings dating back to the 19th century and fully restored, allowing the estate to sleep up to 35 guests in total.
The 54 acres of grounds with spectacular views include three ponds, a heated outdoor swimming pool and a charming chapel. Enjoy outdoor pursuits like fishing and hunting, schedule a wine or cider tasting, play table football in one of the bedrooms and explore the region’s historical sites.The château's dining room features an original fireplace, and the drawing rooms and bedrooms have wooden panelling and paintings from 18th century.
The Big Maison (6-8 guests) sits just 100m from the château and is close to the pool and the kitchen garden. The Little Maison (4 guests) enjoys a superb view over the old castle park and the chapel and is also just 25m from the pool. With two and four welcoming bedrooms respectively, both houses are particularly recommended for couples or families.
Another 6-8 guests can stay in the 2-bedroom cottage with its charmingly renovated interiors, dating back to the 18th century. Only 50m from the pool, admire characterful high ceilings, gigantic oak beams and large sliding doors opening to the patio and a large garden. All annexes have their own outdoor seating areas where you can enjoy relaxing evenings and enchanting views overlooking the park and valley.
Drive the short distance to the village of Combourg to see an impressive castle and town centre. You’re also just over half an hour from Rennes’ cultural sites or Brittany's wonderful beaches. Further afield, history buffs will want to visit Mont Saint-Michel and the incredible D-day beaches, whilst closer to home golfers have a choice of superb courses.
Not only is Brittany wonderful in the summer, it is also a great destination in spring when flowers are in full bloom. Likewise, autumn is the perfect season to gather around the fireplace and spend cosy afternoons in, not to mention December, which will take your breath away as the characteristic French morning mist settles like a lake in the valley, creating a spectacular scenery.
