Charming castle in cantal

Auvergne

Description

This picturesque castle dating from the 14th century is the ideal place to relax and share good times with family and friends. It has been beautifully renovated to provide modern-day comforts while retaining its authenticity. A subtle decoration of carefully selected furniture and objects gives it a warm, comforting feel. With a surface area of 700 m2 on three levels, it can accommodate up to 12 guests. The garden level comprises a living room with a majestic fireplace, a dining room and a fully-equipped kitchen with a piano and a large 5-meter table. The castle's two towers house a master bedroom and a magnificent library. The second floor has three master bedrooms, each with its own shower room, including one in the tower. The top floor, with its exposed beams and skylights, includes a games room with a billiard table, a gym and a wellness room in the tower where you can enjoy a massage (on request), followed by two double bedrooms. A lush, almost two-hectare park with century-old trees invites you to take a stroll, where you'll be amazed by a water-lily pond, a historic chapel and much more. On sunny days, you can enjoy a few lengths in the heated swimming pool and a covered terrace.

This beautiful castle steeped in history is located in the heart of the Auvergne in the Cantal department, 40 minutes from Aurillac. Shops and restaurants are less than 10 minutes away. You'll be close to some of Auvergne's most remarkable sites, including the magnificent village of Conques and the Cantal mountains, where you'll be able to take advantage of the unspoilt natural beauty on offer.
