TRADITION & HISTORY<br />

The family owners were brothers in Arms with William the<br />

Conqueror in the 11'th Century. The Chateau was already their<br />

home. What was once a 9th century Viking fortress, is now a<br />

stunning Château and its enchanting 17th century Manoir, located<br />

in the heart of the Norman countryside, close to the famous Sainte<br />

Mère-Eglise and the D-Day beaches, an excellent base from which to<br />

explore the attractions of the region.<br />

This Château is a French country-style place to get away from it all,<br />

nestled in a hundred-acre park, that has everything guests could<br />

wish for. Meadows and woodlands that invite promenades. Five<br />

antiques-filled guest rooms with either four-poster or canopy beds<br />

incorporating textiles rich in colour and design, folded into a Neo-<br />

Gothic castle. Three apartments in a 17th-century manor house<br />

include an Italianate chapel designed by Mansart, the architect of<br />

Versailles.<br />

Guests may enjoy morning coffee, afternoon tea, pre-dinner<br />

cocktails or after-dinner drinks or simply fall asleep in the<br />

armchairs. In warm weather, the terrace is a fine spot to relax,<br />

overlooking the gardens and the marais or simply the Norman<br />

sunsets that can be spectacular. In winter the fields around the<br />

castle flood, creating the illusion of a lake, a magical landscape of<br />

sky and water.<br />

With an atmosphere that is intimate: refined but relaxed, guests at<br />

the Chateau are regarded as friends rather than mere residents, and<br />

will be happy to spend some days of leisure in an artistic and<br />

historical setting or maybe find romance rekindled in an<br />

atmosphere of blissful peace and tranquility.
