Chateau Quatre Saisons

About this property

Whatever the season, Château Quatre Saisons is the ultimate home away from home and countryside retreat within easy reach of UK and Paris.

After 375 years, this historic château has been brought back to life with the love and exquisite taste of its new owners, who have transformed it into an incredibly stylish and elegant haven. Previous owners of this estate have been traced back as far as 1495 and some records suggest that the Abbot of Mont Saint-Michel may have been the owner of the surrounding land.

Guests are treated to 60 acres of park and woodlands listed as a ‘site classé’ and offering many restored walking paths, beautiful at all times of the year. There is even a rather mystical Cèdre du Liban reputed to have magical powers.

From its privileged location in the stunning Basse Normandie, it is only a 50-minute drive away from three local jewels; Mont St Michel, Bayeux and the D-Day landing beaches and important sites. The immediate area is home to a popular cycling route, so plenty of safe cycling is on hand and can be enjoyed thanks to the château's complimentary bikes.

After a lengthy and meticulous restoration guests can now enjoy up to 9 elegant bedrooms, plenty of comfortable living areas, a library, a fabulous kitchen as well as a gym and a tennis court. The extremely well-equipped kitchen is a real centre piece of the château and a great place to cook and socialise together with friends and family, but when a break from cooking is required the château can organise great meals by its excellent chef and even breakfast.

Outside there are beautiful lawns, the White Terrace and a spectacular enclosed ‘potager’ offering fresh organic fruit and vegetables for most of the year.

Château Quatre Saisons is one of those rare finds where history, natural beauty and exquisite taste have come together to create a masterpiece...a masterpiece just like the magnificent tapestry that hangs in nearby Bayeux.

Good news! For a little extra, this property can be booked as a Vill'otel

Yey! Wait… what is that?

It’s the perfect combo of the privacy of your own personal villa, with all the luxury and convenience of a hotel. 

What can be arranged?

Breakfast, cleaning, welcome drinks and hamper, plus more! Check the 'Extras' tab for all the details.

Château Quatre Saisons is surrounded by historical sites and cultural activities.

Within a short drive of the château is the world famous Mont St Michel, the Bayeux Tapestry and the D-Day beaches.

Additionally, just beyond the Château's own woodlands, there is a cycling and hiking path which leads all the way to the coast.

This region of Normandy boasts many Abbeys, Chateaux and Gardens to visit. Don't forget a visit to a local market where you can buy everything from fresh vegetables and cheese to live chickens and lobsters.
