About this bed and breakfast
Old house from the 15th century, in the old town of Chinon, rue Haute Saint Maurice, house with an interior courtyard overlooking the castle of Chinon. The house is composed of a large living room to rest, read or play board games, an inner courtyard in the calm of the fountain for breakfast.
From the Middle Ages, the nobles and royal officers had large stone houses built below the fortress. The 15th century mansions are distinguished by their L-shaped plan around a courtyard opening onto the street, their spiral staircase housed in a projecting turret at the corner of the buildings. There are beautiful examples of this in rue and place Saint-Maurice. In the 16th century, medieval mansions were remodeled to the taste of the Renaissance: the staircases were incorporated inside the buildings, while the corbelled turrets appeared on the facades. The window frames and dormers are adorned with pilasters and pediments. It is also in the high street, towards the west (rue Voltaire or Haute Saint-Maurice) that we find the most beautiful examples: Control of Waters and Forests, Bodard de la Jacopière hotel, Poirier de Beauvais hotel ... In the 17th -18th centuries, the mansions built are remarkable for the enlargement of the windows, the appearance of wrought iron balconies, the grand staircases of honor: Hôtel du Gouverneur, Hôtel Torterue de Langardière.
