During the Hundred Years War, the town of Verneuil-sur-Avre was the setting of a battle between England and France. Today it is celebrated as one of the most beautiful destinations in France, and is a fantastic place for a relaxing holiday. In February 2010 it was awarded the label of one of the “100 most beautiful destinations in France”. In English hands for some time, the city was re-conquered in 1449 by the French. The small château of Le Clos has retained some of its English charm with its spacious and manicured lawns bordered by regal, centuries-old trees. Another unique feature is the Anglo-Norman conical turret roof with flambé glazed bricks and a floating oak staircase, inspired by the great architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc.
