Château de la Vigne is located in the centre of France (40 Kms. north Aurillac)
between the Mont du Cantal (15 Kms. from Salers) and the High Valley of the
Dordogne 10 Kms. to the south of Mauriac and 10 Kms. to the north of Pleaux.
The owners welcome you in person and offer 4 rooms with en-suite bathrooms. A
suite is also available. This castle is flanked by two rounds towers topped by
pepper-pot roofs, and a square tower that served as a keep and to which, in the
18th Century, a second building was attached: a watch-path runs around the top.
Inside, there are 16th Century frescoes on the walls and ceiling of the Salle de
justice; other rooms are also tastefully appointed (fine panelling; canopied bed
with barleytwist columns; coffered ceiling).
The 18th Century dining room has lovely tapestries, items of Delftware and a
huge sideboard. The chapel, supported by ribbed vaulting, displays murals that
represent Angels carrying the instruments of Passion. The grounds command pretty
views of the Cantal Mountains. |
