Château de Chambiers

When you walk into the “Chambre du Camp du Drap d’Or”, time stops and you enter the curiosity room of an amateur.

Which ones are the real books: those in the bookcase or the trompe l’oeil painting on the doors? Each piece of furniture, each object tells a story. The trunk could have travelled with Montaigne; the gargoyles and other sculptures could have met Quasimodo; on the chimney, there is a stone medallion: isn’t it Louis XI in the middle?

The bathroom, decorated with subtlety, intimacy and warmth, is hidden behind a trompe l’oeil.

This past, so stamped with a protective cocoon, surrounds you. The large canopy bed emphasizes this journey through centuries in contemporary comfort.
