To make a day of it

What the French Ministry of Culture records

Au milieu du 19e siècle, une demeure bâtie selon les goûts de l'époque s'ajoute aux deux bâtisses existantes, reprenant la typologie du chalet alors en vogue dans l'architecture de villégiature. Les intérieurs présentent la distribution classique des grandes demeures avec un vestibule ouvrant sur la bibliothèque, le salon et la cage d'escalier. Les pièces de service, ménagées sur des demi-étages, à l'arrière, sont reliées aux chambres par un escalier secondaire. La bibliothèque s'orne d'un plafond peint daté de 1853.
