The region
Close to Mont Saint Michel and the Loire Valley and its wines, Mayenne is at the centre of the whole of the Great West. This delicately undulating department is very well preserved and has retained all its authenticity. The Château de la Mazure estate is representative of these landscapes. Over its 180 hectares, you can discover forests, lakes and meadows, home to pheasants, roe deer and birds. Just 10 km from the château is the charming town of Laval, with its market and half-timbered houses. This little-known town, just 1h40 from Paris, has remained traditional and authentic. We'll be delighted to show you around, especially the Lactopole, the largest museum in the world.
There are plenty of festivals and activities on offer, which we can help you discover.
