On the second floor there is a large games room with table tennis and plenty of space for the kids to run around and let off steam!

Outside there is a large terrace for dining and beautifully managed gardens with a large heated pool.

The village of Marcillat which is a 4 minute walk has a bakery for your morning croissants, a small supermarket, a couple of bars and a tourist office which will help you plan your visit to this beautiful area.

Your hosts live in a wing of the building and are on hand to ensure you have a fabulous stay. Stephanie is a great cook and should you choose not to self cater every night you can have a delicious four course dinner with wine served on the terrace or in the delightful candlelit salle a manger

Make sure you ask your hosts for a tour of the chateau with its 30 plus rooms and its enormous attics from where you can climb onto the roof for a stunning view of the Auvergne countryside. Although parts of the building date back to the late 13 th century it was remodelled in its present form by Count Francois-Cesar de Durat who told his builders to give him 'something that would amuse him'.

Perfectly located in the centre of France Chateau du Ludaix is easily accessible from Clermont Ferrand or Limoges airports and the Paris train arrives at Montlucon a town 25 minutes drive from the chateau. There are so many lovely places to visit in this undiscovered area of France, delightful spa towns, medieval villages and river gorges with stunning views.

The nearby town of Neris les Bains has a newly refurbished spa where you can spend an hour or two relaxing with a superb massage or for the more adventurous there is a world class Karting circuit just 5 minutes away.

The historic and charming towns of Vichy and Moulins are certainly worth a visit and the dramatic scenery of the Parc Nationale de Volcans is a stunning 45 minute drive.

Conveniently situated half way between Calais and the Côte d'Azur, the Chateau offers a great stopping off point for those journeying through France.

If you would just like a room or two for a night or two, we offer bed and breakfast by arrangement, please contact us to discuss your requirements.

We also have a small cottage, the Maison Guardien available - the perfect private retreat for a cosy weekend away from it all or for a longer term let. Please enquire.
