Château Royal de Saint-Saturnin - Bed & Breakfast in Puy-de-Dôme
Place de l'Ormeau, 63450 Saint Saturnin, Puy-de-Dôme
Auvergne,
Francia
Outside find a moat, ramparts, towers with battlements and extensive formal gardens; inside the thick stone walls discover rich wood panelling, parquet floors, heavy drapery and high ceilings. Yet it somehow manages a cosy, intimate feel. Bedrooms (doubles and suites) are in the oldest wing: spacious, elegantly decorated and each with its own distinctive character – you'll feel frightfully grand.
Head to the charming breakfast room with its gleaming copper pans for croissants and pains au chocolat from the village bakery, jams and honey, local eggs, hams and charcuterie – the focus is on serving the best regional produce. The library/sitting room is a good spot to read a book or listen to music if it's pouring with rain.
On fine days you can retire to the terrace and admire the Renaissance-style gardens with views over fields towards the volcanic peaks of the Auvergne mountains, listening to birdsong and the nearby river.
