Once owned by a cousin of Richard the Lionheart, this remarkable château is idyllically placed in the ancient and bucolic Berry region of central France. It spans 5 floors (including the basement), and includes 1450 m2 of grand entrance halls, outstanding reception rooms, sumptuous bedroom suites, a vast recreation room, home offices, a Mexican-styled tavern, and a staff apartment. There are secret passages, dungeons, a watch tower, monumental fireplaces, parquet floors, marble bathrooms, a private chapel – the list is almost endless.
