Chateau de Villandry: Kitchen
I loved the kitchen at Chateau de Villandry almost as much as the kitchen at the Chateau de Chenonceau. It is the only rustic room in the Chateau with a terracotta tiled floor, large fireplace, and exposed masonry. It contains all of the elements of a kitchen from the early 20th Century including an oak table, copper pots and pans, and a roasting spit.

What I wouldn’t give for a kitchen like this. Yes, I’m the cook of the family. My wife cleans up after me. I think she has the more difficult job! Beautiful shot with the sunlight through the windoes.
I’m with you about the kitchen. Isn’t it gorgeous?!?!? I would live in there.
And although I love my hubby more than my life itself, I often wish I had a wife like yours when I’m in the kitchen. 🙂
I agree. Wives are great. Mine says you just have to train husbands. I would suggest using a reward system like one would use with children or pets!
Your wife sounds very wise, and I am laughing at your suggestion! 🙂
I want a kitchen like this! 🙂 nice shot!
I know, right?!? I’d LIVE in a kitchen like that! 🙂
The French know copper pans! I love that you’re including this kinds of shots and not just the finery. I also like the light on the floor and it has me curious about the windows and the view.
Melanie, maybe copper pans are the secret to EVERYTHING turning out so well in a French kitchen?!? I just envision Julia Child in something not that far from this!
Thanks so much for your encouragement!
P.S. For a glimpse of the view, check out all of the Chateau de Villandry garden shots. That’s the view, and the gardens were so amazing!
Well, I certainly have a lusty wish list of copper pans that I hope to have one day.
I’ve loved the different views you’ve posted; I haven’t been to France in 20 years and have lived vicariously through your photos.
Oh Melanie, I’m so glad you found the pictures fun! 🙂
I’d love that kitchen lol
I want a kitchen like this how?
