, the formidable Catherine de Medici, took the palace from Diane (but did give her Chateau Chaumont as an exchange!). Catherine added a long gallery over Diane's bridge. The castle was then passed to Henry III's wife, Louise de Lorraine, Gabrielle d'Estrees and then to her son by Henry, Cesar of Vendome. The Castle is now in private hands but is open to the public.

Advantages: Inexpensive, amazing sea views, walking distance into town Disadvantages: Scruffy and run down, little atmosphere, very quiet
on the home page did indeed show a very elegant, almost southern American style house, right on the sea front, flanked by palm trees.
There aren't any pictures of the rooms, or other parts of the hotel, although these are described in glowing terms on the website. The hotel also described itself as having a renowned restaurant. As something of a foodie this appealed to me and certainly had a baring on me booking there.
We went into the online booking section on the Chateau website, and looked up the dates that we hoped to stay. We decided on what they called a double room, which was $89 a night for the flat room rate. Breakfast would be extra.
After we sent our booking, an automatic email came back saying that they'd be in touch to confirm our booking shortly.
Sure enough the next day we received said email, they didn't take a deposit ...
