Chateau de losse dordogne france1/11/2024 ![]() The book leads you around the external walls, moat and down to the river, explaining the various reasons for the different buildings and towers that are visible. ![]() I was worried as I walking around that I would miss the bell, but to be honest, you can hear it everywhere and they give you plenty of time to get back to the main gate so no need to rush! You are free to wander through the grounds until you hear the bell and then you make your way to the gatehouse and await your guide. There are regular guided tours throughout the day and each one is signalled by the ringing of the gatehouse bell. During high season the guided tours are available in different languages as several of the guides speak English and/or Spanish, but during my visit the tour was only available in French so the booklet was essential. As I entered through the main gate I was given a guide book in English (they are also available in Spanish, German, Dutch, Russian etc) that would accompany me on the self-guided tour of the grounds and also on the guided tour of the building. With plenty of free parking there is really no excuse to stop off here and enjoy a guided tour and a good look around the grounds.Īlthough the day was dull, the lush moss and greenery that surrounded the chateau and the old moat were glowing against the typical honey-coloured stone that is used for so many of the buildings across the Dordogne region. Situated down a tree line drive between the towns of Montignac and Thonac the Chateau de Losse is a private residence and a beautifully kept chateau filled with history, manicured gardens and original features.
