The last one in my series of aspirational chateau, I promise. At least, for a little while. Normal bookshelf-and-desk service will resume shortly. But first, here are some Swiss chateau which make me dream. Most of them have been converted to hotels or restaurants and can be rented out for weddings.
Chateau Eclepens, from mosquitos.chChateau de Bon Mont, from swissshistorichotels.chChateau de Bossey, from nyon-region.chChateau de la Corbiere, from 24heures.chChateau de Vidy, home of the Olympic Committee, from olympic.orgChateau Gingins, for sale, from sothebys-realty.comChateau de Hauteville, from 24heures.ch
Oh, these are just gorgeous, Marina Sofia! And I see Gingins is for sale, too. Wonder what they want for that property, because I would love to live there! 🙂
I’m afraid it’s already taken by Poppy and she already has a lodger called Susan… Maybe I can interest you in one of the others? Hauteville is also for sale, I believe…

Hmm… the Chateau Gingins calls out to me – obviously, of course, with no link to the beverage😈
Poppy is going to have to have a lodger, I’m afraid!
There is a video about it on the estate agent’s site. But the ‘price on demand’ always worries me… as in ‘if you need to ask, you can’t afford it’.

It does mean there’s more likelihood of the need for a lodger, though! Thank you for pointing me at two minutes of indulgence.
The Chateau de la Corbiere is lovely…… *sigh*
That’s the one I was eyeing this week – perhaps because it seems to be set on a hill, so the views must be magnificent…
Yes, I liked that too!
Yep, I was right about the view over Lake Neuchatel. Here is the website for the hotel.

Sigh. I don’t think it’s possible to grow weary of looking at these. 🙂
Ah good, a fellow addict…
I love all of them, but where will I find five bridegrooms? Maybe I’ll just find one and book Chateau de Bossey…
I like Gingins but I expect it’s out of my budget.
Oh, I think I’ll have the Corbierre please 🙂
