Standing by the Sauldre canal's cool waters is this superb 15C fortified residence. Inside, the old guard room has been transformed into a Louis XIII drawing room. A secret door leads into the blue room, adorned with a portrait of Marie Leszczynska. Look out for the fine 18C Gobelins tapestry before finishing in the chestnut wood-panelled Régence library. The 5ha/12-acre park has flawlessly manicured and trimmed box hedges, lawns and flowerbeds.
