Built in the late 1700s and extended in 1870, the Château de Bambecq was once said to be the most beautiful small Château in Northern France. Set in fifteen acres of park and woodland with a small lake and lovely old farm buildings, the Château is something of a regional anomaly, being built more in the style of the Anjou region.
The Château can be rented for private parties of up to 14, or up to 20 using our Farmhouse (50 metres from the main house). A private rental can be self-catered, partly-catered or fully-catered to suit your requirements (and budget) under the UK owners’ exclusive hire agreement for private groups. Tastefully and comfortably decorated in traditional style, the bedrooms all enjoy uninterrupted views over the gardens and grounds. There are two rooms in which one or two children can be accommodated by the addition of single beds.
Chambre d’Hôte at the Château is offered for most of the year, and Table d’Hôte is available by arrangement for both Château and Farmhouse guests.
Special events are hosted at the Château (listed elsewhere on this site), which is also available for group functions and photographic and film work.
The Farmhouse has 6 beds + 1 cot and is available for exclusive hire on a self-catering basis.
The Location – Easy To Get To! The Château is conveniently situated on the outskirts of the village of Racquinghem in the Pas-de-Calais region. From Dover there is a great choice of sailings and we are only 45 minutes South East of Calais, 55 minutes East of Boulogne and 50 minutes South of Dunkirk – actually a lot closer to London than to Paris! The medieval town of St. Omer is about 10 kilometres away and the popular seaside town of Le Touquet is just over an hour by car. Once you have booked, we send you detailed directions as to how to find us, either by post or e-mail, and from all directions – so far we haven’t lost a single visitor!
