Manoir de Châtelaison stands in Saint-Georges-sur-Layon (Maine-et-Loire), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
The manor of Châtelaison stands in Saint-Georges-sur-Layon, beside the river that gives the place its name. Its asymmetrical tuffeau stone facade is carved with flamboyant Gothic ornament around four main openings, and a turret houses the spiral staircase serving the upper floors. Bought in a near-derelict state in the 1980s, the building underwent a careful restoration, down to the window joinery, and is now set within a landscaped garden that has received recognition for the way it complements the historic structure.
