Michael had found us a beautiful B&B in a chateau near St Quentin, called Le Domaine de Vadancourt.
It's a Napoleonic era chateau that the Germans completely levelled in WW1,
and it was rebuilt again in 1927 using reclaimed stones and built according to the original plans.
The grounds are fully fenced, and encompass 50-60 acres.
This includes a pond, stone-arch bridges, a grotto, and gorgeous feilds and pastures.
Oh, and of cours TanTan the guard donkey. He would bray and run to the fence as soon as he saw anyone new in the yard.. very cute. It was an incredible two days, with great food, GREAT Wine .

Caroline and Gaetan, the owners of the Chateau, shared our meal with us on our last night,
and the wine and laughter flowed late into the night.

The history is apparent throughout the house, with ancient wardrobes and antique furiniture, but modern beds and beautiful bathrooms with huge showers and jacuzzis.

I cannot reccommend this accommodation enough, as you can live in a castle for $125/night which includes breakfast delivered to your room. If you are in northern France, do it. The entire experience was so relaxing, the feeling of calm it gives is hard to describe. Besides I got to practice my french, which was mostly rough,
but I was surprised with how much I remembered!

C'est un endroit magnifique qui a ete renové avec beaucoup de gout! Voila l'occasion de vous annoncer notre futur mariage, ainsi que l'envie de le celebrer a Maissemy!

bonjour,
Avec Martine, nous nous sommes mariés au chateau, et on aimerait vous remercier du fond du coeur.
Se marier dans un chateau on pensait que cela n'était pas pour nous. Ma femme était une vraie princesse, et on s'est senti à l'aise. Merci aux propriétaires, vous étiez avec nous, et toujours avec une délicate attention.
Les enfants ont adoré l'âne tintin, et l'évenement de la soirée, nous nous en souviendrons toute notre vie, c'est le chateau illuminé. Tout le monde était ravi , par chance il faisait beau. Dehors les gens discutaient. c'était génial !
Merci et nous reviendrons... pour nos 1 an de mariage, car vos chambres sont superbes !

Jérome et Martine.
