You pass through an idyllic country side rich with history as you approach Chateau de Peufeilhoux. As you approach you are struck by the groomed landscape complete with black swans swimming in a pond - very romantic setting. The moment we passed through the gate of this small castle into the large courtyard we stopped in our tracks and smiled at each other. The Chateau is a beautiful historic structure that is lovingly restored and maintained by the family who keeps and operates the business. The original medieval fortress which was on the site was built in the 12th Century - the Chateau that is on site now was constructed from the ruins of the old castle about five hundred years ago. The great rooms of the Chateau are a museum filled with impressive furniture, art work and many interesting things. I highly recommend taking the personal tour... note the amazing original fire places. The guest rooms are magnificent. I opted to reserve the smallest and least expensive of the rooms which was very nice. However, after seeing the other larger rooms I will surely reserve one of them during our next visit. It is hard to describe how elegant these rooms are... they leave you feeling like royalty. The hard working family clearly takes great pride in their business and strives to make guests happy. The breakfast is good with everything you would expect. They even served home baked breads. I highly recommend reserving one of the larger rooms with bathtub. Parking is no problem. Take the owner's recommendations for dining in the area... they will make reservations for you. Enjoy a walk along the local historic canal. The wonderful family has members that speak English and they made us feel at home despite our language...
Read moreOur stay at B&B Château de Peufeilhoux was truly unforgettable. The château itself is absolutely stunning—beautifully preserved with authentic charm yet offering modern luxury and comfort. The surroundings are peaceful and picturesque, creating the perfect setting for relaxation or a romantic getaway. Our room was spacious, elegantly decorated, and had a breathtaking view of the countryside. Every detail was thoughtfully prepared, from the comfortable bedding to the high-quality amenities. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and shared the fascinating history of the château with us, which made the experience even more special. We also had the opportunity to attend a wedding here, and it was like a fairy tale—the gardens, the castle backdrop, and the magical atmosphere were all perfect. Breakfast was delicious with fresh, local products served in a charming dining room. Whether you are looking for a luxurious stay, a dream wedding venue, or just a place to immerse yourself in French history and elegance, Château de Peufeilhoux is a perfect choice. We would love...
Read moreOn our way North from Montpelier to Normandy we found a great castle called Peufeilhoux to stay the night at Vallon-en-Sully. We had only just came off the Autoroute at junction 9 and found it within a few minutes. We had to crawl up a gravel road and nearly turned back but when we got to the top there was this magnificent Chateau.||||The owner is quite a character and we met his sons one of whom gave us a tour of the castle and a souvenir photo. We were met by the owner’s daughter-in –law who was friendly, helpful and professional as were his sons.||||At 150€ our room exceeded our budget but was well worth it. Credit cards are not accepted Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to swim. They recommended a restaurant nearby (Auberge des Ris) which we could walk too and the other negative part of our stay at the castle was the experience that we had at the restaurant.||||Breakfast was included and we were sad to leave and only wished that we could have stayed longer. However, we will return but will have to find...
