In the 16th century the manor was part of the Château du Rouhet witch burnt
down at the end of the 19th century. One of its lords, Pierre COMBOREL, was lieutenant in Johan of Arc's Guard.
He was made prisoner together with her, in Compiègne, in 1430.
Altered and enlarged in the 18th and 19th centuries, the manor was renovated in
1997. It's very comfortable inside and moreover, with its dovecote, its caves, chimneys, bread ovens, well,
outbuildings, it has preserved the romantic atmosphere typical of a bygone area. |
The hall leads to the lounge witch doubles as a library for guests' use and to the dining-room
in witch friendly breakfasts are laid out for small or large parties by the old fireplace decorate with scallop shells, the
symbol of Christian pilgrims. Log fires in the winter.
The staircase leads to the guest bedrooms on the 1st and the 2nd floor. Guests can relax on the
terraces situated at the front and at the back of the manor, walk in the five-acre park and enjoy its greenery, woody area,
orchards, centuries-old trees, flowers, box tree

Cars can be parked in the inside the estate. The centre of Beaumont, a town with a population of about
