Château de Belet
402 Pierre de Brune, Saint-Aquilin, France
8 Rooms
Traditional Elegance & Secluded
France’s châteaux come in a variety of shapes and sizes, but few are as classically, photogenically castle-like as the Château de Belet, a 15th-century relic in the Dordogne. This is the picturesque setting for what is, in the present day, a thoroughly unique lodging: a five-room bed and breakfast whose antique opulence is complemented by modern luxuries and contemporary hotel-style service.
Its rooms are named after artists of the caliber of Matisse and Monet; the latter is housed in the castle’s tower, and features rough-hewn stonework in the bedroom and an ultra-luxe spa-like bathroom beneath its well-worn timbers. All of them make use of this vibrant contrast between old and new, combining the comforts of a modern hotel with an atmosphere befitting a 15th-century château.
Its small scale means a private rental of the entire château is within reach, for special occasions or larger parties. And while the château’s kitchen capably handles a daily breakfast for guests, to think of this solely as a bed and breakfast is to miss out on one of its strengths — private chef-led dinners and other curated culinary experiences are among Château de Belet’s most memorable offerings.
