A Castle-gite in Auvergne
In Auvergne, castles are part of the heritage of the region, as well as volcanoes. From the Middle-Ages to the present, the Auvergne castles are witnesses of the evolution of history. These monuments are on a road commonly known as "Historic Road of the Auvergne Châteaux", one of the oldest roads of France. You could visit almost fifty castles, including that of Saint Saturnin, which belongs to the Association of the Most Beautiful Villages of France.
Built by the family of La Tour d'Auvergne in the thirteenth century, the Royal Castle of Saint Saturnin then belonged to Catherine de Medici and Queen Marguerite de Valois, before being offered to King Louis XIII. It has been refurbished recently in a gite whose style remains consistent with the historic character of the place. Inside, charming rooms or bathrooms nestled in the towers, lounges, dining room and reception room have invested the scene. Visitors stay in comfortable rooms, tastefully decorated and equipped with private bathrooms, overlooking the park of the Castle or village of Saint Saturnin. The unique setting of this house will appeal to fans of atypical stays combining originality, comfort and tranquility.
