You can walk up the othside area from main gate till the lake gate for the schloss. Its a private area so you cannot go and see it closer. There is small walkway but leads to neoghbours homes, so a dead end. No place to go anywhere else. Beautiful schloss but if it is not for public then main gate should have words private written. It feels bad you come close and find it private. If its private then close it or display at gate please.

A very relax and quiet place for a walk. Beautiful building. Try to not disturb the neighbors.

Marvelous place, although it was closed. Anyways, go right the gate to bushes and you will see an awesome view to the castle and the lake

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
