Chateau de Freschines

Our historic castle was built in the 16th c. and rebuilt in the 18th c. by the architect of the French king. It has a classic elegance and is set in 26 hectares of centuries-old trees, with 30 guest rooms, 4 salons with open fireplaces, an attached chapel, various side buildings... We have recently acquired the property and we are slowly renovating and restoring it. We would be delighted to have you stay with us. We will be living in one of the side buildings, while you are welcome to stay in the castle. Overall the condition of the castle is top, but amenities might still be scarce. Our chateau is located in the immediate vicinity of famous sights, such as the Loire Castles, cities like Blois, Tours (reachable with Ryan Air), Orleans and Vendôme. The Loire Valley is one of the most important centres of tourism in France: over 300 castles, countless magnificent mansions and romantic towns surrounded by vineyards attract millions of tourists to this region every year. The beauty of the landscape and the easy life in the Loire Valley symbolise the "savoir vivre" of the French and illustrates what it means to "live like God in France". UNESCO declared the Loire Valley a World Heritage Site in 2000 because of its natural landscape and numerous castles. Convenient location and proximity to the city of Blois, many sites and attractions, good connection to Paris (TGV 45 min). Nevertheless, car recommended.
