This is an absolute MUST VISIT. The house is a good visit but there is not tons to see. Worth going in if you want to see some beautiful rooms. There are also a few buildings in the grounds you can visit with the ticket. The grounds are the stand out. Incredible views, walks, they are so well kept. You could spend hours wondering around, soaking up the sun, having a picnic, playing games etc. You can also rent various things for decent prices. E.g rowing boats, bikes, tandem bikes, little carts etc The grounds are free and are worth the trip from Paris or anywhere really. 10/10 recommend.

From the minute we walked into the park gardens and then saw the chateau we knew we had picked a good one. The gardens were very tidy and quite large with a beautiful water feature surrounding. The outside of the Chateau is very picture postcard and inside didnt disappoint either. You only get access to the first floor and one room on the basement level. There are some beautiful floors - tiles and parquet. l;ots of interesting informationon boards to read on your way round. The local authority gave the owners some money to help with restoration but it now is in desperate need of a new roof. Anything that is given is going towards that. You can see the effects of some slight water damage on walls so I hope they manage to get this fixed before the damage becomes more extensive. We walked up to the Dauphins Dairy a separate building built for Marie Antoinette. It was OK. Not a great deal to see inside. Then we walked ujp to the shell house which was amazing. E verwhere on the walls and ceiling is covered entirely with shells of all different kinds. I thought it must have taken ages to do but apparently it was all done within a year. Would recommend a visit to this place if you are nearby. Wished Id taken a picnic!!

Beautiful gardens to stroll all day long. The guides showed exceptional ability in providing additional direction. The chateau itself was beautiful but needed a little TLC. Not as crowed as Versailles, which makes it more family friendly. Had a great hot chocolate with whipped creme in this charming french town.

It’s a very beautiful and big castle with huge park. Went there with friends and family. You can rent the bikes and golf car to check the park.

Well-preserved drawing rooms, but relatively small collection. Unfortunately, only the first floor and the marble room on garden level are accessible. Still, the Laitière and Coquillages (about 30 min walk from castle) are extraordinary and not to miss!

Beautiful, very calm and well kept. Definitely worth a visit and learn more about the ridiculous history behind some of these buildings.

The castle is no longer a residence of President, it’s only a museum. Very nice and cozy , not big, with beautiful interiors. Interesting combination of an old fortress , which you still can see, and new extension of the castle. It is surrounded by big park and pond. The tickets cost 7,5€ and currently available only online. Don’t forget to take a boat or a bike for a great walk in the park ! 15 euros per hour worth it!!!!

Very interesting place, with great explanations on the first and second empires, French presidents customs and much more, including end of the French divine monarchy. The place specifically built by Louis XIV for his wife (Marie-Antoinette) called "La laiterie de la Reine" (the milk farm of the Queen) is also worth visiting, included with the entrance ticket, but quite far (1km walk from the main castle). The garden is magnificent. Overall a place that is tightly linked to the power in France for the past 300 years.
