Why go

Medieval architecture provides the anchor, while art and garden rooms change the tone as you move around the property. That mix gives the visit a more exploratory character than a straight room-by-room château tour. It is especially appealing if gardens are as important to you as stonework.

What to look for

  • Mix medieval architecture, contemporary art and playful garden rooms.

Useful to know

  • Explore the themed garden rooms as part of the visit, not just the château interior.
