About This Villa

This magnificent château in the Loire Valley is known as “Petit Chambord”, for its resemblance to the royal palace in Loir-et-Cher. Built in 1854, it’s now the site of truly grand weddings or special occasions, where guests stay in luxurious suites or beautiful rooms and can have daily meals prepared if you wish. Your on-site concierge, Cynthia, will welcome you warmly - ask her about arranging horseback rides or spa services (or both!).

For weddings, whether you hold your nuptials in the private chapel or in the gardens, this château's French Renaissance architectural details will make your photos unforgettable. The splendour continues inside, where masterfully carved wood panelling and hand-painted ceilings bring you back in time. Opulence pervades not only every room, but also the grounds, where the private lake is a romantic spot for a walk.

This is also a splendid venue to spend time with loved ones, perhaps for a special occasion when exquisite meals using the finest local ingredients from the Loire Valley can be prepared for you by the private chef. The stunning 10-bedroom Coach House even has its own dancing hall and bar. Everything from breakfasts, brunches and barbecues to gala dinners can be arranged to make your stay a truly unique event in the most historic and beautiful surroundings.

This holiday, wedding and events château is located only 40 minutes from the town of Angers, where you should tour the famous Cointreau factory. A ride on the TGV will bring guests to or from Paris in 1.5 hours. The Loire Valley is famous for wine and châteaux- since you have one already, set off in search of the vineyards. The wineries surrounding Saumur produce excellent sparkling wine...a toast is in order!
