There's no better way to experience the glorious history of the Kings of France, and the Chateaux of the Loire Valley, than making the Chateau du Lac your home, at least for a while! This jewel of a private Chateau is completely fenced in and surrounded by 28 acres of manicured grounds, fields, forest,
a lake & 2 ponds and 2 ancient farmhouses. There are walking paths, bicycles(helmets available), fishing gear and row boats available for your use.

The Chateau has been lovingly restored to its former glory, furnished with antiques and period pieces normally seen only in museums, but with all the modern amenities & features for a relaxing as well as stimulating stay. The attention to detail will transport you back to the elegance of "La Vie de Châtelain" that the Kings of France came to the Loire Valley to enjoy.

Most guests never want to leave the grounds, but should you wish to do so, the village is 8 minutes on foot from the Chateau. There, you'll find a bakery(where you can sample a delictable
Tarte Tantin, famously from the area), cafes, gourmet restaurants, a grocery store, butcher shop, antique store and the beautifully restored 15 Century Saint-Etienne Church at its center(the bell tower can be seen from the Chateau's windows). The surrounding country side is beautiful and lends itself to walks or bike rides, especially to the near-by CentreParcs recreational area with its pools, restaurants and day spa.

The Loire flows majestically through this castle-studded valley, listed as one of the UN World Heritage sites. When you're ready to venture further, just 25 minutes away by car or a delightful bike ride, is the Chateau Chambord, one of the most recognizable Chateaux because of its many turrets and Renaissance style. The Royal Town of Amboise might be next with King Francois I's Chateau perched on the hill, or maybe a visit to the darling of the Loire Chateaux, Chenonceau.

You might consider returning home and having our private chef, Damien, prepare a memorable gourmet meal before your eyes or take one of his cooking classes in the fully equipped Chateau's kitchen. We offer our guests the possibility of a several activities in and around the Chateau such as Food Market or Antique Tours, Winery visits & Wine Tasting, Drawing or Painting Seminars, Yoga Workshops & French Language Total Emmersion Courses.

Live the dream and step back into France's Glorious Past while in Royal Residence at the spectacular Chateau du Lac.

    • Chateau Du Lac offers so many possibilities that my wife & children had such a wonderfull time, now they are asking for another visit! The grounds are magical; long walks in the fenced gardens, ponds, flowers, trees all around makes it an enchanted place for kids & adults alike. The kitchen was my favourite, whether saute'ing mushrooms from the town market, or simply displaying breads/patries from the bakery before a peacefull breakfast, I felt at home. My wife & kids loved discovering the many rooms & sitting by the evening fire...so many memories, so much to write, better yet i promissed my family WE WILL BE BACK! I highly recommend Chateau Du Lac whether you want a family get away, a romantic visit to one of FRANCE's most scenic regions, or a large re union. My e.mail is enclosed & i would be happy to share information, better yet contact Chateau Du Lac I trust taht you will be recieved with the same caring & genuine proffesionalism that I and my family were afforded. Bon voyages, Andre' Khonaysser.

    • Looking at the photos reminds of me my frequent stays at Chateau du Lac. My stays were wonderful, I love to cook and the kitchen is a complete delight and well stocked. Eating outside in the summer was magical. The grounds and house are beautiful and well maintained. The area is quiet but you are so close to many other activites if you so desire. I took many bike rides and walks, the town is charming. This is a great house to go with a group of friends or family.

    • This is a wonderful region of France to visit and we had a really tremendous time there among the beautiful chateaux, villages, markets, vineyards and restaurants. Steven and Veronica, through whom we rented, made it also very special, looking after every detail for us. Wonderful accommodation, terrific atmosphere, like stepping back into a previous century. I can't wait to go back again. HR

    • "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder," as the saying goes, and thus, behold the abundant beauty at Le Chateau! Artisans, poets, musicians, writers, nature lovers, appreciateurs of elegance and tranquility, your views from an open window will enchant you and inspire you to create, photograph, or record your impressions. Le Chateau is such a place where you can saunter through the lush, sun-dappled grounds or sunny, charming interiors, curl up with good book by the fireplace and read, prepare a fine French meal to enjoy with friends and family, or capture the splendor of your surroundings in watercolors or on journal pages or simply in the guest book upon leaving ... and you won't want to leave. But vacations do have to end and ours did, but we enjoyed every single moment of our stay at Le Chateau! You will, too! Trust your senses and embark on a visit to a truly enchanted little piece of paradise. Le Chateau is an exquisite experience in every way!”
