After the pandemic, the question is , Is there any magic left in the world? - the answer is YES! Chateau de Mercues in France

 

Hidden France countryside  - deep in the heart of central France is the magical Lot Valley. Here you'll find a 13th-century turreted Castle hotel with its own fabled vineyard. 

Standing high on a cliff overlooking the Lot river is one of the truly great experiences of traveling in France.. A member of the Relais/Chateaux family, so of course that means a great restaurant experience is to be had. AND OH! THE EXPERIENCE!



 
The owner of this fabulous castle hotel is the well known wine producer, Bertrand-Gabriel VIGOUROUX, whose Malbec wine ( a dark and inky wine ) that will take your taste buds to  new heights and you'll never look back at other red wines you have tasted. 

Charles de Gaulle who stayed here, remarked 'From here you can see history coming towards you'


Although the hotel dates back some 700 years, it has all the modern conveniences one expects from a great hotel, yes even a swimming pool.
