Château des Forges

Just 5 minutes from the city center, the Château des Forges, nestled in its 6-hectare parkland graced by numerous ancient cedars and sequoias, boasts breathtaking panoramic views stretching to the horizon. The same can be said of the heated swimming pool, whose turquoise waters gently meander at the foot of the terrace.

Built in the mid-19th century in a style that blends Louis XII influences, combining brick and stone—a hallmark of the Loire Valley—with inspiration drawn from English manor houses, featuring bow windows and expansive wooden balconies, the Château des Forges is a prime example of the resort architecture that flourished around provincial cities during the Second Empire.

Each room, where modern and antique elements are warmly combined, has its own unique character. All offer remarkable views of the park and the surrounding landscape. The best comfort contributes to the enjoyment of the stay (private shower room or bathroom with separate WC, television and Wi-Fi).
