      Chateau Chombard

      October 3, 2017 in France ⋅ ⛅ 10 °C

      Called into a boutique, chocolatier on our way to the Chateau Chombard. Handcrafted chocolates from tea sets to sheep to life size cars! Em loved the choc 'water feature' and tried to rate the diff choc from around the world, Jess liked the creations hand made from choc. After the detour onto The chateau, a wonderful example of French architecture and extravagance. Built in the 1500's the chateau was used by royalty, government and even as a field hospital during the war. It was abandoned many times and has some colourful history attached. We loved the tapestries, soft fabric wall, cool spiral staircase and outside rooms.
      Staying in Mer, nice little apt with some English stations on T V :)
