Un acogedor castillo renacentista de ambiente romántico, que ofrece alojamiento con cocina en cada habitación.
Se trata de un hermoso castillo renacentista dirigido por Viviane Youx (habla inglés y español). Tiene cinco opciones: la habitación Marie-Antoinette, la habitación Mazarin, la suite Donjon, el piso Pinewood o la habitación familiar Cône d'Or, cada una con su propia cocina. Podrá dormir en un ambiente romántico con muebles antiguos, baldosas y piedra vista. Para desayunar, el gran Salón del Unicornio le transportará a los siglos XVI y XVII. Para el ping-pong, está en el sótano, ¡pero de la Edad Media!

Aurélie et Anthony
Un calme fabuleux , et de jolies Corneilles amatrices de belles pierres .
Excellent accueil , discret , attentif , efficace .
Free parking on site.
Ideal for couples, groups and families and with a small kitchen for self-catering.
Bear in mind, the property dates as far back as 5th century ( Basement) and 15th/16th Century for the body of the Chateau. There are wide stairs ( surfaces can be uneven as worn over time) It’s 5 flights to the top of the central tower, there is no ground floor, from the entrance hall it’s either up one flight to the dining room, or down to the basement which has a table tennis table.
Three flights up from the entrance hall is a lounge and games room with a billiard table, and two further flights up are 3 rooms.
Other rooms are accessed via the dining room or doors in the wings of the chateau.
We stayed in ‘Cone d’or’ which was a very large and beautiful room with a large bed, two further beds, plenty of chairs and sofas, a tv, kitchen and en-suite.
The shower was great, with instant hot water.
The room has some of the oldest oak timbers in the building
Avanton is a very typical tranquil French village. Having some french is helpful.
A short walk away from the chateau is a small central group of shops, walk right at the war memorial outside the chateau, across the island and turn right at the next island by the statue of The Virgin Mary ( on the left on the opposite side of the island to the graveyard)
Keeping the graveyard on your left, walk to the next junction (follow the road) and turn left, walk past the bus-stops, restaurant, and the shops are ahead on the right, including:
A butcher with a superb range of meat, charcuterie, wine, cheese and pre-prepared dishes, great for self-catering.
A Tabac, a convenience store with a bar attached and a good selection of food and provisions, a boulangerie with a tempting range of cakes, pastries, and bread.
A short distance away from the shops is ‘Cree Pierre’, a restaurant serving a range of typical french food, unfortunately closed when we visited.
The bus stops ( each way) are right by the restaurant and village centre.
Our host Viviane was very accommodating and spoke good english, Farah was very helpful in Viviane’s absence, super-friendly.
A lovely stay, wish it could have been longer.
