Loire Valley 17th century gatehouse near Chinon | House in Assay

2 Bedroom House in Assay
Standing between the historical town of Chinon and the “Ideal City” of Richelieu — built in the 17th century at the order of the notorious Cardinal Richelieu (1585–1642) —, Château de Belebat offers you the perfect nest to host your next Loire Valley Adventure.
Welcome to the Gatekeepers Cottage, the family first home in France. Built at the beginning of the 17th century, the gatehouse of the château unfolds over three floors. It currently counts with two gorgeous and very luminous bedrooms, two bathrooms, a well equipped kitchen and a very comfortable dining room and living room spaces. The cottage is lovingly decorated in country fashion, oozing charm and timeless character.
Right outside your front door, under an old lime tree, there’s a round table with benches for everyone to enjoy a glass of rose and cheese or maybe, in one of those lovely, warm summer nights, you could sit outside for a candle lit dinner or a laidback BBQ.
Belebat is a small country estate facing a major restoration journey. You are welcome, however, to feel at home and make the most of the grounds. Stroll down the park around the chateau, enjoy nature’s soothing magic and take a picnic in the forest or grab a bike and venture down the amazing bike path right outside our heavy gates.
Belebat is our family home. We live with our three little boys in one of the houses on the property. Therefore, you will be welcome and looked after by us. There will always be one of us available throughout your stay, in case you have any questions or need help.
Pet Policy - we love our pets and your pets are more than welcome to join you while you stay with us. We ask you to please clean up after them, both inside and outside. There is a 35€ additional fee for pets which you can book with your reservation.
Within one hour drive from your home in the Loire Valley, you can explore most of what the “Garden of France” has to offer. Two wonderful zoos, an incredible wealth of world class vineyards, outdoor family fun like canoeing in front of castles and medieval villages, trekking through the forest or cycling — one of the cycle paths being right outside the stone walls of Belebat — and, of course, castles, castles and more castles — this UNESCO heritage site will exceed your most outrageous expectations.
There is a brand new bike path directly outside the chateau's gates and you are more than welcome to borrow our bicycles for a leisurely ride to Chamigny-sur-Veude to the bolangerie or a more grand adventure to the nearby villages of Richelieu or Chinon. However, it is best to have a car to enjoy the Loire Valley and all its treasures.
