    • The Castle of Panloy

      Built on the banks of the Charente during the reign of Louis XV, the Château de Panloy still belongs to the same family. This is why it has been able to preserve all its period furniture and many stylish objects, witnesses of the life of yesteryear.
      It is thus a very authentic atmosphere that you will discover by traversing the various spaces opened to the public at the time of the guided visits organized daily (duration of the visit: 1h).

      In the main hall, nothing has changed since the castle was built. The very beautiful tapestries of Beauvais are in their place.
      In the dining room with Louis XV woodwork and period trumeaux, a rich is decorated with Saint-Louis crystal.
      You will walk through the hunting gallery with 80 trophies.
      Throughout the visit, many unusual objects will catch your attention.
      A room with a Louis XIXth style layout overlooks the Charente and offers unexpected spaces.
      In the attic, you will discover the frameworks of the castle in a different atmosphere, that of the servants.

      Located between Saintes and La Rochelle, the Château de Panloy opens the doors of its two guest rooms. Decorated and furnished according to their time, the authenticity of the rooms will make you live a romantic weekend. A warm welcome and a country atmosphere await you at the Château de Panloy for an unusual weekend. The guest rooms are open from April 1st to October 30th. The soul of the house has remained intact despite the passage of time. The castle, still inhabited by its descendants, has remained in its original state and restoration work is being carried out today.

      Ideally located in a pretty village by the river and in the heart of the Charente Maritime, you can enjoy the calm of the countryside while being close to everything. The amateurs of heritage, nature or gastronomy will find there for sure their happiness.

    A very old house, with a great history, well worth the visit. Our room was large with a view over the fields to the river. Very quiet. The guided tour of the chateau was very interesting. Breakfast was very good. Bed was very comfortable.

    We visited for a few hours but were very impressed. We were made very welcome during the house tour and our guide was excellent. We saw parts of the Chateau we did not expect to see. Very interesting.

    Le Château de Panloy is a stately home offering guided tours of its park and its interior, plus private party options in one of its outbuildings. It is not a hotel (as of October 2024). Located on the banks of the Charente River in the town of Port d'Envaux, the Château has been in the same family for hundreds of years. The front facade is in good shape; the back facade is currently under much-needed renovation, having suffered the effects of winds and rain subsequent to devastating storms. The interior of the Château also needs upgrading, yet it offers an interesting peek into chateau life. It is understandable and laudable that the owners have opened it to the public. We had what was undoubtedly the best guided tour I have ever had of a stately home, and I highly recommend visiting Château Panloy. Private homes like this need the public's support - and entrance fees - to finance renovations and preserve our local, regional, national, and international heritage for future generations.
