About this castle / palace rental

Set amidst the magical forest of 'Brocéliande' in Brittany, France, home to King Arthur, Merlin and the noble knights and ladies of Medieval times, this enchanting Chateau is situated on a hilltop that overlooks 181 lush, private, and peaceful acres of tranquil woods and verdant fields.

Located within the extensive property is a Manoir that dates from the 13th to 15th centuries with four fully furnished ‘themed’ self-catering apartments and a medieval Dining Room/Hunter's Lodge. Other medieval structures hold the 'Knight's Room', an 'Assembly Room' with stage, cinema, and fully equipped kitchen for catering, an ancient outdoor bread oven, an artist studio, a working dairy farm that provides our guests with fresh milk, and of course, the 19th century Gothic Chateau.

Le Mur' (The wall) is a privately owned estate situated on the highest peak in the surrounding countryside, and is a historic site recognized by the French Government. What was at one time a Medieval hamlet (and still exist today as the Manoir and adjacent out-buildings), was sat along-side the ancient 'Roman Road'.

Historic ruins on the site include a Roman earth berm (wall) built for observation and protection for the Roman soldiers whom utilized the site as a military camp, foundations of a Roman Temple, and a chariot drive. The remains of two medieval forts and moats have also been discovered on the property. Guests can stay at either the ancient Manoir or the 19th Century Chateau.

Located in the bucolic countryside, Le Mur is central to everything Brittany has to offer, from large Medieval towns on both the Channel and Atlantic Coasts, to lovely touristic villages just minutes away. The property can also be rented in its entirety, and can hold up to 50+ guests making it a comfortable place for corporate and family retreats. As guests of Le Mur, enjoy an afternoon picnic under the shade of the ancient Roman Arch (at one time the entry to the hamlet), hike along the numerous wooded paths, romp through fields of wild flowers to feed and play with the miniature pony and Ouessant sheep (the smallest breed of sheep in the world), read a book or simply nap under a canopy of trees in the apple, peach and pear orchards.

Ernie and Terry Monaco, the American owners of Le Mur, will be on-site to assist you with any questions on the area and to make your holiday a carefree, peaceful stay.

Chateau Le Mur sits at the top of a hill with breathtaking views from the back patio as well as the tower deck. The ground floor of the Chateau consists of a Clive Christian kitchen, a formal living room and dining room with hand painted ceilings, a formal den/office and 1/2 bath. The 1st floor has 3 en-suite bedrooms, 1 bedroom with a 1/2 bath and laundry facilities. The 2nd floor has a large office space, 3 bedrooms and a shared bath that consists of a very large bathroom with sunken double bathtub, double vanity sink and shower. The tower has one bedroom and a private terrace with astounding views of the countryside. The 'Cave' (basement) has a large wine room, a comfortable cinema room, and additional laundry facilities.
The estate consists of a Chateau and 15th Century Manoir (includes 4 furnished apartments), two orchards, fields, gardens, forest, trails, a Medieval Assembly/multi-purpose room (holds 50), an English library, additional medieval kitchen, a medieval dining room, and a 'knights' room. Additionally it is a working dairy farm with cows, small Ouessant sheep and a pony.
