~ The Most Ancient Places To Stay - France ~ |
|
From Burgundy to Brittany, France possesses many of the most beautiful ancient buildings in Europe - and today some offer accommodation as either hotels, inns, castles or chateau.. |
|
Chateau D’Ayres. Meyrueis, Languedoc-Roussillon. A real case of third time lucky after two previous constructions were destroyed during more hostile times. However, parts of this building (originally built in 1125 AD) are still thought to date back to the fifteenth century. |
|
Chateau de la Flocelliere. La Flocilliere. Pays-de-la-Loire. Try conjuring a mental image of the archetypal French chateau and you’d be likely to picture this particular 11th century building. |
|
Château La Roque. La Roque sur Pernes, Provence Ramparts, turrets and a drawbridge indicate that this is certainly an ectremely ancient building - almost nine hundred years old, to be less-than-precise. |
|
La Terrasse. Meyronne, Midi-Pyrenees. This 11th century building possesses little in the way of Palladian symmetry, and therefore exudes a certain charm only medieval French castles can. |
