Countryside Castle 3 | 4 Bdr | Brittany

A luxury private Chateau for Rent in Brittany

Sleeps: Up to 10

(3 doubles + 4 single beds).

VILLA DESCRIPTION

This Chateau is a 14th century hunting lodge – a miniature castle in the middle of the Brittany countryside. A slice of French charm without overwhelming acreage, Chateau Lignol is tucked away behind Breton farmland. A long track opens up onto a vista of the famous tower which can be glimpsed through the trees. A stay at Chateau Lignol is the perfect opportunity to explore and immerse yourself in the peaceful and beautiful local area. Surrounded by farmland, this is truly rural France at its best.
Built in 1251, it was used as a hunting lodge for the Princes of Rohan from 1384 when they wanted a bolthole from the hustle of nearby Guémené sur
Scorff. It is five minutes by road to a compact busy village that boasts three , a cinema and a weekly market, as well as an active cultural life.
The chateau is a reflection of the owner’s eclectic and antique style. The airy spaces of the salons and the kitchen show off the candles, fabrics and
salvaged stage pieces that shine in the restored rooms.

LOCATION

The town centre of Guémené-sur-Scorff is five minutes by road to a compact busy village that boasts three boulangeries, a cinema and a weekly market, as well as an active cultural life. The nearest beaches are Guidel and Larmor Plage, which are 40 minutes away by car. The nearest airports are Dinard and Brest, which are both a 2 hour drive away. The nearest ferry ports are St Malo and Roscoff which are both approx 2 hours away. Saint-Barthélemy and Lorient are respectively 20 and 35 km away.

BEST FOR

• NATURE AND WALKS: Ile de Batz is a small island offering coastal walks, a stunning exotic garden and Bronze Age burial sites. Clamber up the boulders of Parc d’Armorique where you will find scenic walking routes and idyllic villages.
• BEACH HOLIDAYS: Brittany is famed chiefly for its beaches, and with so much coastline to explore it is certainly one of the best reasons to visit the region. But there is more to Brittany than sun, sea and sand, and while a good chunk of our villas and chateaux in Brittany are found next to the coast the ones further inland are just as tempting.
