Tucked away amidst the Loire châteaux in the Sologne region's capital of Romorantin, the town that inspired Leonardo da Vinci to visit France, this Renaissance-era mansion has been welcoming in visitors since 1774, and is now run by the Clément family. From the Renaissance wing to the Napoleon III balconies, the 16 bedrooms here are embellished with authentic old materials, mirrors, woodwork and flagstones, all fully renovated by Marie-Christine and Didier Clément. Chef Didier Clément pours his talent and artful touch into developing groundbreaking natural flavors in dishes designed to sit alongside an incredible wine list, in which the wines of the Loire Valley are given pride of place. A delectable moment to be savored.

A journey along the water, between the châteaux of the Loire Valley

Listed since 2000 as a continuing cultural landscape on the UNESCO World Heritage List, the Loire Valley has some of the most beautiful castles in the world stretched out along its river. An epicenter of art and history, the region is glorified by the intricate styles and silhouettes of Chambord, Chenonceau, Cheverny, Azay-le-Rideau, and many others. Everything here seems dedicated to refined elegance, from the gardens of Villandry to the prestigious setting of the Cadre Noir. A journey into both elegance and time.

Exploring the Sologne

The Sologne reveals its true self only to those who have time on their hands to explore it. If you fancy taking in its fresh air and varied scenery, there's no better way than hiking or bike riding. Rent one of our 'Made in Romorantin' electric bikes and we'll put together a route that is just the right length for you. A paradise for avid bird watchers, Beaumont Lake (23 km away) is the ideal place to observe the courtship rituals of breeding birds such as grebes, marsh terns and Eurasian bitterns.
