Chateau du Chevalier by Drone | Burgundy | France | Oliver's Travels
For an unforgettable family holiday or fairytale wedding, book Chateau Du Chevalier, a magnificent 15th century castle in Brittany.
Beautifully located on a ridge overlooking a charming pastoral landscape, the estate comprises a stunning main chateau and three annex buildings dating back to the 19th century and fully restored in 2000.
The estate comprises a stunning main chateau sleeping up to 15 lucky holidaymakers and three annex buildings, able to sleep a further 20 guests.
The 54 acres of grounds with spectacular views include 3 ponds, a heated outdoor swimming pool and a charming chapel. Enjoy outdoor pursuits like fishing and hunting, schedule a wine tasting, play table football in the games room and explore the region’s historical sites.
The chateau’s dining room features an original fireplace, and the drawing rooms, lounges, library and bedrooms have wooden panelling and paintings from 18th century.
The Big Maison (8 guests) sits just 100m from the chateau and has direct access to the pool and the kitchen garden. The Little Maison (4 guests) enjoys a superb view over the old castle park and the chapel and is just 25m from the pool. With two and four welcoming bedrooms respectively, both houses are particularly recommended for couples or families.
All buildings have high ceilings, massive oak beams, original fireplaces, grand windows, inspiring country-style kitchens, extravagant drawing rooms and beautiful bathrooms creating a superb living environment.
Furthermore, they all have easy access to the swimming pool and their own outdoor seating areas where you can enjoy relaxing evenings with enchanting views overlooking the park and valley.
Drive to the village of Combourg (4 km) to see an impressive castle and town centre. You’re also 30 km from Rennes’ cultural sites or Dinard’s beaches. History buffs will want to visit the D-day beaches (150 km), and golfers can choose from 10 nearby courses, some just 15 minutes away.
Chateau Duval is 45 km from the Saint Malo port.
Not only is Brittany wonderful in the summer, it is also a great destination in spring when flowers are in full bloom. Likewise, autumn is the perfect season to gather around the fireplace and spend cozy afternoons in, not to mention December, which will take your breath away as the characteristic French morning mist settles like a lake in the valley, creating a spectacular scenery.
Please note that whilst the main chateau can be rented independently (15 guests rates), the annex buildings are only available as an addition to the main castle (35 guests rate).

Kasteel de Haar - Rijk aan Verhalen
Of je Kasteel de Haar nu bezoekt om het park, de wonderlijke geschiedenis, de tentoonstellingen, de tuinen, de hertjes of om te trouwen, je waant je even in een andere wereld. Achter elke deur, elk detail, elke bloem uit de kleurrijke tuinen, schuilt wel een verhaal. Over andere tijden, andere culturen, andere figuren. De Haar is het grootste kasteel van Nederland, dat ooit privébezit was van de familie van Zuylen en waar haar nazaten nog steeds jaarlijks verblijven. Ook de internationale jetset uit de vorige eeuw, met haar uitbundige levensstijl, bezocht met regelmaat het kasteel. Van Coco Chanel tot Roger Moore, zij lieten hun sporen na in de luxueuze kamers van de meest weelderige plek die Utrecht rijk is.
In 1890 erft baron Etienne van Zuylen van Nijevelt van de Haar het zwaar vervallen domein De Haar. Hij besluit tot herbouw van dit familiekasteel, als eerbetoon aan zijn roemrijke voorvaderen. Samen met de puissante rijke barones Hélène de Rothschild neemt hij meesterarchitect Pierre Cuypers in de arm, die dan al beroemd is met het Rijksmuseum en het centraal station in Amsterdam op zijn naam. Cuypers maakt van De Haar een waar gesamtkunstwerk, met behoud van oorspronkelijke indelingen.
