Château de la Barre

CHAMBRE MARIN DE VANSSAY

RELIVE THE REFINEMENT OF THE XVIIIth CENTURY IN THE PRESTIGIOUS SUITE MARIN, WITH IT'S KING SIZE CANOPE BED, EXQUISITE GOLD AND ROYAL BLUE FABRICS, IMPORTANT ANTIQUE FURNITURE AND PAINTINGS. THREE WINDOWS OVERLOOK THE GARDEN AND PARK. THERE IS A GRACEFUL ADJOINIING SMALL DOUBLE ROOM AND A LARGE, ELEGANT EN SUITE BATHROOM, THE "SALON D'EAU", DECORATED LIKE A SMALL DRAWING ROOM


Marin de Vanssay, the husband of the great grand-daughter of the builders of famous Loire Valley castle Chenonceau, added this wing on to château de la Barre to enhance his prestige in the late XVIth century.

Facing the imposing century-old oak wardrobe stands an important XVII century Florentine mirror towering over a magnificent XVIII century French Regency commode. The luxurious gold and royal blue Rubelli fabric enhances the remarkable furniture and the embroidered linens of this princely room.

A most graceful adjoining small double room, Chambre Louis XV, can be added creating a vast suite. The en suite bathroom, called “Le Salon d’Eau” is decorated like a drawing room: three Aubusson tapestries, a Louis XVI commode with a double sink, and even an area for reading in an elegant Louis XVI armchair: Experience bathing as an art!                                                              

 A hearty English breakfast, served on fine porcelain, is offered with home-made jams and fresh seasonal fruit from the castle garden. You will thus savour the beginning of a beautiful and serene day in a peaceful small breakfast room or in the summer, on the terrace.


The Count of Vanssay will invite you, if you wish, for a visit of the castle, during which he will tie in the history of the Vanssay family with the History of France. The luxuriant park and the flowered garden of the castle invite you for a beautiful stroll into untouched nature. Or opt for a swim in the large swimming pool.
