Summary:

The Château d'Alogny is a romantic hilltop castle, available for rent throughout the year. A private home, it stands in a timeless, almost forgotten corner of France just south of the Loire Valley between the historic cities of Tours and Poitiers.

Surrounded by intriguing gardens and terraces, with a large, private swimming pool, Alogny commands outstanding views across the surrounding countryside.

Originally built in the XIth Century, the castle retains its mediaeval ambiance without compromising comfort. Alogny's massive beams and ancient stone walls reflect a long and often turbulent history. But today all is peace and tranquility, with a special charm that is warm and welcoming.
