Introduction

A Rare 15th-Century Château of Distinction.

Set in unspoiled open countryside, this magnificent 15th-century château—crafted in the fortified manor tradition—offers an extraordinary blend of history, luxury, and complete privacy. Behind its walls lie 1.5 hectares of beautifully enclosed grounds, where heritage architecture, manicured gardens, and a serene poolscape form a private sanctuary unlike any other.

With noble origins tied to the Barony of La Touche and once serving as a distinguished hunting lodge, the château underwent an exquisite restoration in 2007–2008. Every detail was reimagined to honor its original scale and grandeur: monumental oak beams, hand-laid terracotta floors, and a sculptural limestone staircase anchor the home in its remarkable past.

Customer Reviews [12]

Martin
In terms of scores / feedback:
Housekeeping: 5/5. The rooms were all very well prepared.
Location: 5/5. Met our needs entirely. Peaceful and yet easily accessible.
Accommodation and Comfort: 5/5. The house is beautiful and the rooms are comfortable. The Aga was a joy to use. The bathroom was spotless. The fan in the bedroom was helpful.
The garden (where we spent most of our time) is a wonderfully private space. The pool is a great size...the water was crystal clear all week.

Martin
We certainly had a restful and memorable holiday at Château Monjardin... the house and grounds are magnificent and provided a lovely quiet retreat that the whole family enjoyed.

Adam
We had an absolutely lovely fortnight at Château Monjardin. Faultless. Please could you pass on our especial thanks to Colin and Sue. They could not have been kinder or more generous. I miss it already and will be sure to return, perhaps next year. All our very best regards.

May I say a big thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us, we had an amazing time.

We all had a lovely time. The accommodation was so huge that we could all find space when we wanted that and a communal get-together when desired. Our son-in-law really enjoyed cooking on the Aga and produced some spectacular meals. Needless to say that we all had fun in the pool on sunny days.

David
Thank you for giving us the chance to stay at Château Monjardin. It's such a beautiful château. Such an interesting building and such a peaceful setting.
