Château de Beaulieu is an 18th-century mansion on the slopes of the Cher River in Joué-lès-Tours, near Tours. It was bought by Jean-Pierre and Loraine Lozay in 1976 and is set within 3 hectares of grounds.

Today the property offers 16 rooms in total; 9 are within the château itself, with stylish furniture, high-quality fabrics, and modern bathrooms, while the remaining 7 are elsewhere on the estate.

The Lozay family's ownership since 1976 gives Beaulieu nearly five decades of continuous family stewardship, a long tenure among the region's smaller château-hotels.

The fact that just over half the rooms — 9 of 16 — are within the original 18th-century château, rather than a clear majority or minority, places Beaulieu in a genuinely balanced mixed-location category.

The restaurant's extensive wine list of over 350 bottles reflects the property's position within the broader Loire Valley wine region, giving guests a serious oenological offering alongside their stay.

The château's position in Joué-lès-Tours, directly on the Cher River near Tours, gives guests staying at Beaulieu easy access to the city and the wider Montbazon-area château cluster.
