Beast’s Castle France
Holiday Home Rental Description
The castle is nuzzled in Vendee & Charente’s captivating countryside and it’s simply awe-inspiring. That said, you won’t cross paths with many others, the local wildlife has ruffled a few feathers with the neighbours so they tend to stay away. But don’t let that discourage you, inside lies a world of splendour.
Ornate wallpaper, rich tapestries, antique furniture and chandeliers decorate the glamorous four floors. And it’s all yours to explore: 5 unique bedrooms, luscious pool and the exquisite French garden – your days will never have been better spent! Though the castle is spacious, the West Wing is forbidden to visitors – rumour has it, the 900-year-old curse will be awakened…
Don’t worry, there’s still plenty opportunity to have fun; get lost in the treasure-trove library, have a sing-along by the piano, get competitive over billiards or take a stroll around the castle’s ruins. The castle is quirky, gothic and unconventional – who knows when a prince will come and sweep you off your feet. If you need anything during your stay, be sure to let the on-site staff know, who will happily take care of your needs – insider tip: they make a cracking cup of tea.
Remember, appearances can be deceiving, beauty is found within – but you won’t have to search for it here, beauty overflows.
If you’re looking for a roaring escape, The Beast’s Castle is the perfect choice! There is a village close by where you will find a bakery, chemistry and supermarket (open every day till 7.30 p.m and on Sunday morning).
There is a tennis court in the village which is within walking distance. There are excellent golf courses and horse riding possibilities within 15-25 minutes from the castle.
If you wish to try local restaurants, we recommend going to la Bergelière in la Flocelliere at 5 minutes’ walk (menus from 20 euros per person), to Les 3 Piliers (5 km) or Auberge du Mont Mercure (2km).
