    A very beautiful castle, in a magnificent setting, steeped in history and full of charm. The visit is truly enjoyable and definitely worth the detour. The only slight negative point was the welcome at the entrance. The gentleman at reception was rather gruff and not very friendly. We felt like we were bothering him, which is a shame; he barely even said hello. This type of behavior isn't really appropriate for such a beautiful tourist site. Apart from that, everything went very well, and the visit was a wonderful experience.

    Well-maintained, the castle is imposing and steeped in history, still owned by the same family. The rooms are lavishly decorated. There's also a restaurant, but we visited in the afternoon, so we didn't try it.
