Do the baroque or gothic style, the refinement and the unique soul of the manors attract you? Good news: some of these large, prestigious houses open their doors to you for one or more nights with your dog!
Often built several centuries ago, you will find in these manor houses an architecture close to that of the Middle Ages, as well as a decoration worthy of certain castles! However, rest assured, we are far from the old, gloomy houses that we know in horror films. With Musher, we only choose places where we are sure to feel good to sleep there during the holidays, so I assume that it is the same for you!
All the mansions that I present to you are QUALIDOG labeled. Warm and friendly atmosphere guaranteed! Ready to sleep with your dog in a mansion? I'll let you get ready, then let's go! 😀
Sleep in a mansion with your dog: the experience that awaits you
History buff, unusual adventurer or simply curious about the experience? Here's what awaits you if you come to sleep in a manor with your dog!
I'll give you a little history to start! In the past, manors were built mainly by lords, who wanted to spend quality time in the countryside. I read your thoughts, you say to yourself: “such a big house just for a lord’s vacation?! I hope he came with his dog, at least!” In reality, the lords took advantage of the places as a family. But also and above all, the manors were used to receive many prestigious guests! And yes, some came with their little pet dog 😉
Again today, ladies and gentlemen, in the mansions that I offer you, you will be received with your dog like people of the high court ! 👑 Our QUALIDOG-certified hosts provide you and your dog with a Trop W'ouf welcome, full of little touches but also of quality!
Although they are renovated, these mansions where you can sleep with your dog retain the charm of the old. Baroque or Gothic in style, sometimes combined with modern, the refinement of these old houses will seduce you. A sophisticated decoration awaits you in the mansions, each room is worthy of a museum! I advise you to go see for yourself 😉
The word “mansion” mainly evokes darkness, a heavy atmosphere, and other not-so-cool things to you? You are not the only ones, that was my case before too! I then learned that this connotation came from the many horror films filmed in these big houses. But don't forget that basically, they were built to enjoy with family and entertain! These values of hospitality and conviviality always permeate the places, even more so when they are transformed into guest rooms or lodges, and even more when they welcome dogs as well as humans! I hope I've reconciled you to the mansions if they were rather scary for you at first!
So, are you ready to try the experience of sleeping in a mansion with your dog?
