Built around 1850, Château du Breuil is a small 19th-century château at the heart of the Loire Valley château region, between Tours and Langeais, within a 16-hectare park surrounded by greenery. After a long period of abandonment, current owners John and Marc meticulously restored it and brought it back to life, with personal, colorful and detailed decor adapted to contemporary comfort.
Today the property operates as a guesthouse within the château, with a garden and terrace.
The château's long period of abandonment before its restoration by John and Marc gives Breuil a specific modern revival story, similar to several other small Loire Valley properties brought back from disrepair by their current owners.
The château's genuinely small, personal scale distinguishes it from the larger full-service château-hotels found elsewhere in the Loire Valley, offering a more intimate guesthouse experience.
This property should not be confused with the better-known Château du Breuil in Normandy's Calvados region, known for its Calvados distillery — the two are entirely separate properties, roughly 250 km apart.
The château's position just 11 km from Château de Langeais gives guests staying here easy access to one of the Loire Valley's most historically significant fortified châteaux.
