As the sun was still in the sky, humom wanted to go to the nearby Château de Ratilly after we visited Guédelon. It took pure magic to find the way. But we found it in the end.
Around the castle
First, we explored the area around the castle. You never know what you might find.

The castle park had lots of magical places where we could work our collie magic.



The architecture is also enchanting. It must be expensive to maintain such a large castle. We really need our own castle for the prestige alone. I wonder if the humans could build us a small castle? I would call it Castle Collie Stone.


The old garden has a wonderful view of the surrounding area and the old chestnut tree has seen many knights, wizards and people.



Master Lucien did not miss the opportunity to try out a new charm spell.


Then we found the castle gate and announced our presence with a loud bark.

What a beautiful castle!


Dovecote
There was a lot to discover inside. The historic dovecote was fascinating. Especially as there could be a pigeon in every hole.



Fireplace
In addition to an art exhibition, there was also a wonderful fireplace room. I can really imagine watching my people here by firelight. You can feel the magic of the moment here.






Inner courtyard
The courtyard is a wonderful place to relax and watch over your subjects from a stone. Excuse me? As a wizzard, I don’t own the whole world?
Master Lucien!



What have I insulted you to death?! Sorry!!!

Porcelain shop
We may not be elephants, but it’s still too much ceramic for us here! May the lady please make up her mind and we be brought to safety!


Art Installations
You can find various installations in the park. The magic of these devices is incredible. They have inspired me for my next spell! It’s called Trapped Time!

Oh… what, hours have already passed? Our food is not being served here! We have to go to the hotel immediately!



Back at the hotel
The magic was exhausting. I’m going to die if there isn’t food soon!


Rating Château de Ratilly
We visited the Château de Ratilly and were delighted.
Journey
The route leads through the beautiful nature of France. It is well worth the journey by car.
Experience
You can have so many magical moments with the Collie Knights. There’s something new around every corner.
Dog suitability
As a dog knight, you are popular and can explore everything. But the ceramic shop can be dangerous for wagging tails or poking noses.
Useful information
The Château has its own website.
Plan a good amount of time to explore everything. If you still have time after Guédelon, a visit to the château is highly recommended.
