Castle of Beaujeu
18300 SENS BEAUJEU
Opening 2008 : from April to September

Description

The Castle of Beaujeu, situated in the heart of the Sancerrois, holds a secret.

Nobody knows why the Dumesnil-Simon abandoned their old home and built the new Beaujeu in 1566. Perhaps because of the charm of this verdant spot with its vast lawn rolling down to the river which runs along the bottom of the small valley.

You will never forget your stay in Beaujeu, ideally located for visiting the vineyards of Sancerre, Menetou-Salon, Chablis, the Loire Valley castles, Jacques Coeur Route and the Cathedral of Bourges. Friendly welcome.
