Château de Boucéel Sketch
Karen's Review Of
Château de Boucéel:
The Château de Boucéel, listed as a historical monument, is truly a treasure. Surrounded by a vast park, it sits proudly on the crest of a small hill, facing a lawn that rolls gently down to a small lake, complete with white swans and a little bridge. This handsome stone mansion was built in 1763, though it has roots in the 12th century. Since the very beginning it has been in the family of your charming host, Comte de Roquefeuil, who can enthrall you for hours with fascinating stories of the château’s colorful past and of the role his ancestors played in various battles. The lovely Comtesse de Roquefeuil is equally charming and they both extend a genuinely warm welcome. The impeccably maintained interior is spectacular. All of the rooms are filled with astonishing antique furniture and the walls abound with family portraits. On the ground floor is a dramatic foyer with a sweeping staircase on one side, a cozy library, a billiard room, and an elegant dining room. The bedrooms display the same refined, elegant decor and perfect taste, decorated with family antiques. One of my favorites, Oncle François, is a very large room with windows overlooking the front garden. Mont Saint Michel and the landing beaches of Normandy are nearby.

Driving up the long driveway to the Chateau de Bouceel we were in disbelief--this place was too beautiful for our eyes! The beauty continued inside our room, the MARQUISE. I felt like I was royalty staying in a palace. Beautiful swans and ducks can be seen walking around the property also. We absolutely did not want to leave and were regretting that we only booked one night here. Next time we will stay much longer and just relax on the beautiful grounds. The caretakers were also so wonderf...

I have traveled throughout Europe for many years and this was the most memorable stay I can recall. Unfortunately, it was for only for one night.

Chateau de Bouceel was not only a stately manor, it has ’history’. The owner, Regis de Roquefeuil and his wife were the most charming hosts imaginable. His family has owned the property since the Knights Templar so he has many stories to tell with real coats of arms and real family portraits from the past. Although I think his favorit...
