Islette Renaissance building, listed as a historic monument, with a park ideal for walks and boat rentals.

Château de l'Islette was once home to sculptors Rodin and Camille Claudel. It was for them a place of creation and a source of inspiration. Classified as a historic monument, this Renaissance tufa stone building stands on the banks of the Indre River. The current owners have opened it up to visitors, who can explore the Grande Salle, adorned with magnificent paintings, and its monumental fireplace. You'll also admire the chapel on the first floor. You can also enjoy a picnic in the park, hire a rowing boat or visit the castle's animals.

Château habité 7 mois de l'année, on retrouve les photos de famille et des objets du quotidien au milieu des mobiliers d'époques. J'ai aimé ce contraste. Le parc est très agréable, on peut pique niquer au bord de l'indre en regardant le reflet du château dans l'eau

Le château de l'Islette est un château intéressant car il est habité la moitié de l'année et n'est visitable que de mai à septembre. Les propriétaires y vivent le reste de l'année et ils ont donc modernisé certains endroits du château - la cuisine notamment - mais ils ont su préserver un cadre agréable. Le parc est assez grand et permet de flâner le long de l'Indre.
