Freezing room when we arrived, owner extremely discreet and reluctant to pass on and share. We were hoping for a little more warmth and friendliness in this place that is supposedly steeped in history. Damage Nathalie and Sacha

Friendly and very discreet welcome (the owner serves you the dishes and closes it behind him to give you complete privacy). The meal was very good. Very nice place renovated with great taste. Renovated bathroom and comfortable bedding. Missing a blind on one of the two windows (it can be annoying in summer!!). Very quiet place. I recommend

Nice fortified house but not a castle. The evening meal was good, but not gourmet. The breakfast was plentiful but bought commercially. The setting is pleasant and relaxing. Spacious and comfortable room for the night. The friendly owner. Bring a coffee carafe for the evening lol.

The place is lovely, has been very carefully restored, but no visit (neither free nor guided) is organized despite the signage at the entrance. At most we can go around it. Several of us were disappointed.

Very good time at the grand cour, for a weekend. Very good meal served in the evening, and incredible calm during our stay in this very well renovated castle!

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
