Chateau de l'Eperviere is a top quality 'Castels' parc in the grounds of a delightful 16th Century chateau. Ideal as both a stopover and for longer stays. Located just 16km from the A6 Autoroute du Soleil, Gigny is justly popular as an overnight stop for those en-route south.
However, you will find that it is also a rewarding place for a longer stay. Its excellent facilities include a delightful restaurant in the chateau and a super pool complex with both indoor and outdoor pools, jacuzzi and sauna.
Set in the grounds of a partly restored 16th century chateau, this is an attractively laid out parc with plenty of open space for children to play in, mature woodlands to explore and good sized pitches.
