Staying at the Château de Lannouan: a night in an 82-hectare park

Expedia presents it as a château in a rural setting, with a terrace, garden, library, games room and billiard table. According to Wikipedia, the park around it covers 82 hectares; the photos in the listing show broad lawns, tree-lined avenues and a small stone building beside a pond.
The rooms are individually decorated, with furniture chosen piece by piece. The listing mentions high-quality bedding, free Wi-Fi, free mineral water, a kettle, a desk, a shower, a hairdryer, free toiletries and central heating. Rooms are cleaned daily and the staff speak several languages.
For relaxing, the château has an indoor pool with a children's pool, sun loungers and a whirlpool. Dinner is served at the château's table d'hôtes, and a banquet hall completes the shared spaces. There is no lift, and the property is non-smoking.

The history of the Château de Lannouan
- 15th century – The lordship of Lannouan is the second most important in the parish of Landévant: in 1464, Hervé de Lannouan has an income of one hundred livres.
- 1702 – Jérôme du Perrien buys Lannouan; the Perrien family lives there, and he dies there in 1705.
- 18th century – The present château is built.
- c. 1850 – It is substantially remodelled around the middle of the 19th century.
- 1939–1945 – The château suffers heavy damage during the Second World War.
- 1990s – It is more or less abandoned during this decade.
- since – New owners restore it; it stands in an 82-hectare park.
According to Wikipedia, the Château de Lannouan was built in the 18th century and then heavily remodelled around the middle of the 19th. It suffered badly in the Second World War and was more or less neglected in the 1990s, before being restored by its new owners.
The name Lannouan is much older than the present building: the lordship appears as early as the 15th century. Today, according to Wikipedia, a 3.7 km walking circuit bears the name Lannouan in the guide "Carnet de balades au cœur du pays d'Auray".
