One of our favorites

We wrote a while ago about how Chenonceau is the number one requested place to visit by our clients. We can totally understand that: Chenonceau is the most iconic of the Loire châteaux, and is near the top of many people's list of places to see.

When we visit Chenonceau it gives us a chance to visit one of our favorite restaurants in the Loire Valley, and then after lunch to visit a château that many tours miss.

Montpoupon is one of the smaller châteaux, still family owned, and is furnished as if the family have just stepped out. Apart from the château there are the kitchens, and a hunting museum. It is one of the more easily photographed château (we have plenty of photos to prove that!) and many of our visitors have asked to have their photo taken outside the château with Célestine.

If you would like the opportunity to have your photo taken at Montpoupon, email us, and we will arrange a very special day for you.
