I wasn't supposed to get here, but I recommend stopping by. In summer, the lake invites you to jump in, but the reason for my stop was my stomach. Top quality/price ratio at: "Les Saveurs de Brenne".

Very good Gravel route with a first part engaged due to the humid spring weather conditions. (Mud, tall grass, rus become streams to cross. A single track on the Alienor trail which is super nice. Ultimately few roads. Two closed passages which we easily bypassed.

Located on a small height which offers a very extensive view of the valley, the castle is made up of two buildings at right angles with several turrets. With the exception of a few buttresses, the traces of fortifications still visible at the beginning of the 17th century have now disappeared.

A very interesting castle. It is privately owned but can be rented for events. It was the setting for the Channel 4 show Escape the Castle. Legend has it that the last wolf in the area was shot from a window of the castle. For more information on the château check: https://thechateau.tv/
