On site:
There are walks on site in our park and the farm that surround the chateau and you are very welcome to explore these. These are relatively short.
Inside for your use is the grand piano in the sitting room and table tennis in the orangerie. There are always cards, chess, board games etc.
Outside you may use our bicycles or play croquet, boules, football. There is also a sandpit and swings for children to use.
For those with horse-riding in mind there are paddocks with shelter for your horses (free of charge as well).
One of our neigbours offers tours of the locale by horse and cart which are well worthwhile.

It is a favourite retreat for Parisians. While for visitors wishing to sample a spot of the capital then Paris is just 1.5 hours away. Along with Paris, Monet's Gardens, Versailles, Chartres, le Mans and the Normandy beaches are popular day trips visits for guests.
It is equally celebrated for its food and excellent restaurants and for its music and art festivals.
Below are very useful "downloadable pdf guides" for those wishing to know more about the area.
They are written in French but offer an idea of what is going on and what is to do here. We find the map particularly useful.
