Expect to walk around 5 km if you want to explore it all—the castle, the gardens, the historic farm, and the riverbanks—so wear comfortable shoes and give yourself 3 to 4 unrushed hours.
Lockers are available free of charge at the entrance, so you can store heavy bags. The gardens and ground floor of the château are wheelchair-friendly, but upper floors involve stairs.
Don’t miss the fresh floral displays throughout the rooms—arranged twice a week from the château’s own flower gardens—and if you're visiting in cooler months, look out for roaring fireplaces that add a warm, lived-in feel.
Photography lovers should step across the river (you can get a hand stamp for re-entry) for postcard-perfect shots of the château’s arches mirrored in the Cher—early morning and golden hour light are best.
Free parking is a 10–15 minute wooded walk from the main entrance. The walk itself sets the mood, especially on misty mornings.
Want a unique view? Rent a kayak or small electric boat nearby and float under the château’s arches—a peaceful, unforgettable perspective.
