Castelwood

Presentation

There is a wood at the foot of the hill on which the castle Biron and its village are located. Nestled in between those trees are our rentals. Each accommodation has between 50m² (540 sq.ft.) and 65m² (700 sq.ft.) living space as well as a spacious veranda between 15m² (160 sq.ft.) and 20m² (220 sq.ft.).



Holidays to the rhythm of nature, peace and relaxation. There’s a swimming pool where you can cool down and laze around. We, your hosts, can point you to all the marvellous things to do and to see in our beautiful region ; a region we know as well as the backs of our hands.
