Stay in a château in the French countryside

“The Chateau is located in the quaint village of Villedomer, a perfect jumping off point to many of our day trips throughout the week. The Chateau is blanketed by a beautiful forest of trees, including pine, sequoia, and chestnut. The only sounds to be heard were frogs in the pond and an occasional ‘moo’ of the neighboring farm’s cows. During our stay, we saw two deer, hares, and rabbits, and enjoyed walking along the grounds foraging for mini strawberries.”

“After a charming day in picturesque Honfleur in fall, we drove through the winding roads of the Parc Naturel Régional des Boucles de la Seine. Between the trees changing color and the fog that obscured the many historic buildings that we passed, I was glad that we chose this region. Le Verbosc is hidden up a road that was surrounded by red and orange leaves and upon arrival, the door was open for us. As we chose to visit out of season, we were the only guests.”

“When I stayed here in the month of July, it was hot and it was pretty hot in the room up until I went to bed. There was no air conditioning (typical in France) nor was there a fan; however, during the night I slept fine. Perhaps the castle walls keep things cool There was a breakfast buffet in the main room of the chateau and I had one of the best croissants ever—-warm and flaky.”
