Rent a Chateaux

1

Probably you already dreamed of a vacation at an honest-to-goodness castle. Though many medieval castles have been renovated and brought into the 21st century as modern-day hotels, a handful still retain their Middle Age roots and are open to overnight stays, public tours and private and corporate events."A castle embodies luxury, romance and chivalry and is laden with history and tradition," says Freda Katritzky, publisher of "Chateaux Prives," a guide to private castles, palaces and estates around the world. "They are the ultimate status symbol, and they were built to impress the beholder and to serve as the seat of ultimate power in the region."
King Arthur didn't have WiFi and flat-screen TVs, so living the life of a 17th-century duke or king—even for a day—may be rather spartan. But that's part of the charm. "Many castles feature an attentive and helpful staff, but don't expect to receive the level or variety of services you would in a five-star hotel," says Patricia Blanche, owner of LCF Custom Travel & Tours in La Canada Flintridge, Calif. "Castles tend to be in more remote or rural areas, so fine dining and other entertainment options can be limited."
