Château de Courcelles is
located inside an historical triangle, formed by the towns of Reims,
Laon and Soissons: it is about 25 Kms. from the latter and is
approximately an hour from Paris. Its architecture is of the purest
Louis XIV style, built between 1690-1694 towards the end of the long
reign of the Sun King, builder of Versailles. Château de Courcelles
comprises 13 bedrooms and 5 suites, a gourmet restaurant, a bar, a
reading-room furnished in the XVIII century style and a terrace where
one may be served meals.
Château de Courcelles has a park, and it occupies a surface of 20 ha. In fact, guests at Château de Courcelles will have friendly
service, comfortable, individually styled rooms and exquisite haute
cuisine accompanied by a long list of exceptional champagnes. Cross the
threshold of this magnificent XVIIth century château, set in the midst
of an enchanting parkland, and you will understand why Racine, La
Fontaine, the Dumas, father and son, and Jean Cocteau (who designed the
staircase banister) fell under its spell.  |
