Château de Cocove

This magnificent 18th-century building was completed in 1741 by Becquet de Cocove. A perfect example of 18th-century Neoclassical style, nestled amongst the greenery and overlooking an
11-hectare park, the vast building changed hands in the 19th century and was eventually acquired by the Coetlogon family.

During the so-called ‘Camp de Boulogne’ episode, Marshal Ney organised lavish soirées at the Château de Cocove.

At the turn of the 20th century, a distillery was established on the estate. Spared during both the First and Second World Wars, the château – where the writer Paul Nizan died in May 1940 – was sold in the 1980s and, following restoration, became a four-star hotel and restaurant.
