CHÂTEAU LES NOËS BLANCHES
Time with your friends & family and a setting for beautiful understated events. Welcome to your Château in the Western Loire.
Welcome to Chateau les Noës Blanches. Situated next to the iconic motorsports town of le Mans and extending into the open countryside of the Western Loire Valley, the estate stretches across 450 acres of gardens and private grounds. The house is fully equipped for entertaining and provides an elegant setting for events and perfect place to spend time amongst your family and friends.
20 minutes from le Mans, 4 hours from London St. Pancras by Eurostar and 45 minutes from Paris by TGV fast train - shopping trips to Paris are a breeze.
The house first appears on archive documents around 1540, during the reign of king Francis I, but the original building is likely much older. Like any venerable old house, with each generation it has undergone modification and refurbishment to bring it up to date for the time, and this generation has been no exception.
The heart of the estate, on a warm summer's day you always want to stop by the main fountain for a while.
Take a dip in the sparkly heated swimming Pool in the provençal garden when the summer days get warm.
A dinner out in the open amongst friends. What could be better?
Warm and intimate, this is where many a dinner has wound up going on into the early hours.
The natural hub of the house in the morning, the kitchen is wholly equipped to cater for a full house of 15 guests. On colder days, we'll get a fire going in the open fireplace - there's a good reserve of logs kept for this reason.
High ceilings and views across the estate, on summer afternoons we'll open open the windows and let the breeze run in from across the fields.
A quick game before sundown? Maybe work up a bit of an appetite...
