Worth knowing

Built on the site of an old medieval fortress, from the 11th Century onwards the chateau was repeatedly attacked passing regularly between French and English hands, finally becoming a French possession in the 15th Century. Purchased privately from Lorraine in the 18th Century before becoming state-owned after the revolution, the castle was completely rebuilt in 1813. In 2002 the castle was renovated and refurbished to convert it into a luxury hotel, and again refurbished in 2016.

The pool

There are 2 swimming pools, 1 indoor within the spa and 1 outdoor.

The Restaurant

The one starred Michelin restaurant is one of the Chateau highlights, where the chef proposes a menu of fine gourmet cuisines made with local products such as the Gironde estuary caviar, honey from Mirambeau or organic products like the fruit juice.

Guests can dine in the jardin d'hiver, a covered terrace overlooking the fountains and park, and in summer can enjoy meals on the terrace.
