Considering the Chateau de Perreux Amboise in Amboise?
A VT member wrote the following comment about visiting Amboise:
The Royal castle by Dariana
Waking along the old railing used by the guards, you will arrive at the castle?s terraces. The view is great: the Loire, the walls, the castle and its gardens and?the town.
Both wings of the castle set out the transition between gothic and renaissance style.
The interior often disappoints its visitors but its rich and bloody past gives it an haunted aura.
