An eccentric late-19th-century castle that blends baroque style and English elements, this Relais & Châteaux property welcomes guests who want to enjoy its tranquil mountain setting or soak in the healing waters of Molitg-les-Bains. A Michele Guérard–trained chef evokes the spirit of the south at the château's restaurant, preparing dishes inspired by this region's bounty.
