[FR] Demeure de famille du XVIIIe s., au milieu du triangle Blois/Chambord/Cheverny, en bordure de rivière. Calme absolu. Circuit n° 9 "Château à Vélo". Chambres pour familles. Table d'hôte par le propriétaire, ancien restaurateur. Démonstration de cuisine.
[EN] This establishment was once a hotel but has been turned into a Chambres d'hôtes (the French equivalent of a B&B), thus the number of rooms offered to guests is less than it once was.
A few crumbly bits outside, frescoes and trunks in the hall, antlers in the dining room, old floral wallpapers and marble fireplaces in the bedrooms. These are light-filled and unabashedly old-fashioned but there's charm in 'Roi' and 'Rose'; bathrooms are time-warp 70s; river-water murmurs constantly below your window.
