"You couldn’t ask for a more picture-perfect example of a French castle hotel than Normandy’s Château d’Audrieu, an 18th-century monument set on a 60-acre estate between Caen and Bayeux. Its 29 rooms and suites combine throwback opulence with modern comforts; the château’s architectural heritage is everywhere in evidence. A spa by Sothys adds to the hotel’s charms, and is accompanied by a heated outdoor pool in a verdant corner of the property." - Tablet Hotels
