As the only hotel on the Château de Chambord’s 5,440-hectare estate, the Relais de Chambord offers a rare opportunity to experience the traditional vie de château. Beautifully modernised but retaining its provincial charm, the hotel offers panoramic views over the extensive grounds, with access available from dawn to dusk. Included in the Valentine’s package are champagne on arrival, a candlelit dinner and a discount on massage treatments.
