Spend a relaxed day exploring two contrasting châteaux just minutes apart in the Cheverny countryside. Begin at the grand Château de Cheverny, where the gleaming Bourré limestone façade frames lavishly furnished rooms with Gobelins tapestries and Old Master paintings — and where Hergé found the model for Tintin's Moulinsart. If you arrive by 11:30, catch the spectacular daily feeding of the estate's hundred Anglo-French hounds. Continue to the intimate Château de Troussay, the smallest castle in the Loire Valley, where guided tours reveal salvaged Renaissance details from demolished châteaux and a charming Sologne farmlife museum in the grounds. Troussay is open April through September only, so plan accordingly; Cheverny welcomes visitors year-round.
