Behind its characteristic nineteenth century architecture and interior, the story of this Franco-British history unfolds. From the dining-room to the smoking room, the library to the private apartments and along the pathways and groves of the Tudor gardens, Franco-British people and monarchs mingle in every space. William the Conqueror, Henry the VIII, Napoleon Bonaparte, Queen Victoria and Elizabeth II all rub shoulders with the extraordinary owners of the Ch\u00e2teau : Henry Guy, Sir John Hare, Sir John Robinson Whitley and the mysterious Abb\u00e9 Bouly, in an amusing display of national treasures. The Chateau has recently opened an Elizabethan-style theatre similar to Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
