This was the best chateau that we have seen in a long time. The Sleeping Beauty story is a very creative idea. The English translations everywhere were useful. Stunning gardens. Nice staff. Beautiful views.

A must see in my opinion. Not a Top3 But on the list. The outside is actually quite gorgeous. The inside is fine though.

Lovely time there, could park the bike safety ( cameras in the area ) and had a very nice visit to the sleeping beauty castle. there are caves, jail and gardens, like a fairy tale. Food at the front and wine sale on the side. ( Independent shops )

OMG what a beautiful picturesque chateau this is. Just like the fairy tale it is reputed to have inspired. Beautiful inside and outside with fresh flower arrangements adding a touch of elegance. A comprehensive tour around the rooms including the story of Sleeping Beauty, brought to life in a lovely set of towers and rooms.

Wow !! Well we've visited some fab places on our French tour .... and this really is a highlight. It's an amazing fairytale (sleeping beauty was initially written here) chateau. Around €15 each. Parking opposite (no height barrier). Allow a good couple of hours to wander. The Chateau has a tower visit - complete with little sleeping beauty scenes, the Chateau itself has numerous rooms - all plaques in French and English. Then there'd beautiful gardens to explore - currently being planted up. The Chapel, the stables and the cellars are just as interesting. There's no toilets in the Chateau itself, (some behind the Chapel - some further down by the entrance), and no refreshments - cafe in the carpark. Little gift shop. English information sheet given to us on arrival. This Chateau is entrancing- we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Beautiful and fairytale majestic.

The castle is full of history, and the Sleeping Beauty tower is one of their highlights and it would be interesting for children. Their garden was very pretty even in September, and there were still lots of nice flowers blooming. It is definitely worth the visit. It wasn’t too crowded in September, and there were plenty of nice photo spots. What a lovely castle!

The Castle that was the inspiration for sleeping beauty. A wonderful setting close to the River banks. There are some rooms to view in the Chateau, a Chapel, stables, and caves. However, the main promotion is the sleeping beauty story in the tower. If you have mobility issues or do not like spiral stairs you won't be able to view this part. Disappointing for my partner The gardens are beautiful and there are some trees over 200 years old.

The wonderful Château d'Ussé presents scenes from the story "The Sleeping Beauty " on the top floor. The ticket price is €14.5 / person. There is parking in front of the castle but it is not signposted but 📍 on google.map and it is free 07.05.2025
