Castle rental with sumptuous park and gardens in Normandy

Set in 37 hectares of parkland, the gardens of Château de Villers Bocage offer a range of themes and moods. 

 A 300-metre driveway, finely decorated with over 100 yew topiaries, and a stone balustrade with two guard lions, mark the path leading to the foot of the château. 

The outdoor pool terrace is designed to immerse you in a soothing atmosphere. Hundred-year-old olive trees and a host of other species adorn this area. Panoramic views of the swimming pool and the château from the upper terrace make this corner of the park an ideal place to relax or organise your events or receptions. Indulge in a reverie in this timeless setting. 

Phyto-purification: respect for nature in a sumptuous setting

As part of its commitment to respecting its history and ecosystem, the Château de Villers Bocage is equipped with a state-of-the-art phytodepuration system. Installed in 2021, this system ensures that the château’s wastewater is treated naturally, without the need for a septic tank. A reed garden with a natural filter tank ensures purification. The purified water continues down the castle’s small river, first to a natural retention basin and then to the ponds.  In this way, the water cycle is respected, recovered and enhanced to protect the environment. This is the ideal habitat for many endogenous amphibious species, unusual invertebrates and wild orchids.
