Description
Ideally positioned between Nantes and La Baule, between beaches and countryside, on the edge of the Grande Brière park, the Château du Deffay is located in the heart of a romantic landscape of woods and ponds. The land of Deffay has been an important seigneurial domain since the 15th century, and the current neo-renaissance castle, inhabited for five generations by the family, evokes the rich history of the place, in particular the Vendée epic of the Duchess of Berry in 1832.
The beautiful interior architecture, large living rooms with antique furniture, double flight staircase, spacious and comfortable rooms are the living environment of the young couple who live there and give new life to these places where they will welcome you as friends.
