Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
It won't be a mystery why our attention was captured here – a castle built in 1698, this home boasts historic charm and sprawling grounds, perfect for large family gatherings. Everyone can come together in the evenings around the large dining table, while the various alfresco dining areas offer the option of breaking off into groups. The home lends itself to multi-generational gatherings thanks to its easily-accessible ground floor suite, designed with those with limited mobility in mind, while young ones will love sleeping in the castellated turrets and rambling in the fifty-odd acres of grounds. And if having twenty-two guests sounds like a recipe for morning queues, you can relax knowing there are nine ensuite bathrooms.

Home truths
While several of the bedrooms and bathrooms aren't photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home

Three of the super-king bedrooms and one double bedroom can be turned into twin bedrooms

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
