Visiting Queen Margrethe's summer castle in France

We went to visit Château de Cayx in Luzech, France. One of our château Queen guest rooms is named for the current Danish monarch, Queen Margrethe II. Bo’s family was visiting from Denmark, so we made a day of it. We highly recommend a visit

More on the château & winery: The Château de Cayx has been owned by the Danish royal family since 1974 and is one of the Lot Valley’s most stunning locations. The château’s history is inextricably linked with the region’s own history, particularly that of Luzech, the local area. The vines around the château produce sophisticated wines and are also testament to wine being made in the area since ancient times, as the Cahors vineyard was founded by the Romans and is one of France’s oldest (over two thousand years old).

Queen’s Escape was inspired by the 4 years the Belgian royal family stayed at Château de La Tuilerie during WWII. In particular, it is for the Queen. The king took shelter at a different location in France. We’ve named each of our guest rooms after great Queens of the past and present from around the world. Margrethe, Eleanor, Catherine, Himiko, Cleopatra, and soon our bridal suite will be ready in honor of Queen Elizabeth II.

With it’s sprawling green meadows, 100-year-old trees, and historic location in the small medieval town of Gluges, the 200-year-old château is truly an escape. With 5 guest rooms to rent and a stunning Orangery, we look forward to welcoming you for a visit or to host your wedding or event.
