The rooms

What more could you ask for?

Everything about Marty and the chateau is expansive and spectacularly memorable, and the love and flair with which he and Thierry have restored, decorated and furnished their home is heart-warming, as is the generosity with which they share it. The far-reaching views from their hill-top avenue are glorious: it would be very tempting to return and see their wonderful garden and grounds in all

the different seasons. Add to that a charming landscape dotted with mellow old villages and Romanesque churches, grazed by Charolais cattle and alive with birdsong: what more could you ask for?

Lovely walks around the grounds, definitely recommended

We received a very warm welcome from Marty when we arrived at short notice during our "Sawdays Road Trip" from Somerset to Italy. Chateau de Vaulx is a fabulous building that has undergone some serious renovations in recent years. Being a building geek I was fascinated by Marty's account of the works and history of his home. We enjoyed and a delicious breakfast - top service, definitely recommended.

Ein Ort zum Träumen

Es ist wie im Märchen! Eine Aussicht übers weite Land, der Schlossgarten gepflegt und naturbelassen, die Küche vom Feinsten und Zimmer, die Orte sind zum Wohlfühlen. Der Schlossherr Marty setzt dem i noch den Punkt drauf. Er verkörpert die Mischung von dem, was das Chateau de Vaulx in seinen Mauern alles schon erlebt hat.

Oft macht es den Anschein, dass mancherorts im und um das Haus die Zeit still steht, um aber sofort wieder, in moderner Art, aufzuwachen. Ein Ort zum Verweilen und Träumen!
