Gîte la Tour de la Reine blanche

Take a leap back in time to medieval times with an unusual stay at La Commanderie in an 11th-century dwelling. A change of atmosphere in this former stronghold, then Templar Commandery, to which Jean-François has taken it upon himself to breathe new life. If the atmosphere of this exceptional place is still there, you'll find all the modern comforts and wellbeing of a truly warm vacation spot. Here, everything has been thought out down to the smallest detail, which you'll enjoy, always with respect for the place and its carved stones steeped in history: the furniture, the ceramic or forged crockery, the decor, right down to the bathtub, are all homemade and bring a real sense of originality! You'll love dining in the salle d'armes next to a roaring fire, spending the night in the tower with its round bed, or grilling on the brazier. Jean-François will tell you all about this region of the Vexin Normand and guide you to its most beautiful nuggets to visit. Entering from the garden level, the gîte is FULL-FLOOR: a warm, well-equipped kitchen, a living room in the arms room with its original dining area and period-style armchairs, and a cosy living room next to the superb fireplace: comfortable bedding for 2 in the sofa bed. The tower houses the bedroom, with its curves and stone walls, lit by 3 loopholes: large round bed! The bathroom, dressed in wood, is just as original, with its barrel bath, stone washbasin and toilet. On the garden side, you're on the motte féodale, overlooking the village and the small Bonde valley: plenty of space for running around, a croquet lawn, a sheltered dining area with a hanging table; ample parking (not enclosed). There are also 2 small gîtes on the property, which can be used as additional accommodation. In the village, local producers, restaurants and bakery, and in Gisors, 6 km away, all the services of a small, friendly town.
