Roiffé: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes
Accommodation in Roiffé
The Château de la Roche Marteau in Roiffé preserves elements dating primarily from the late Middle Ages. These include an entrance gate located between two towers, with a double gate and drawbridge, as well as numerous loopholes. The château stands on a rocky promontory above the Loudun plain. Its south wing has a wooden gallery on the north façade, of which there appears to be no comparable example among the region’s châteaux.
