La Maison Gonzagues is one of the last existing big town houses of Cotignac. It has played host to numerous high-profile families and it has now been restored faithfully in the style and spirit of the 18th century. You will be accommodated in one of the 5 spacious rooms available, all fitted out with old style furniture, some of it dating back centuries: Jouy: a 40 m2 bedroom reminiscent of the past centuries. It has a big room with a fire place, a spectacular bathroom, separate toilets and a cupboard. It is dominated by 'Jouy' style material. Louis XIV: this 35 m2 bedroom reminds one of the King's visit to Cotignac. It consists of a room with a fireplace, a huge four poster bed, separate toilets and a pretty bathroom with Salernes tiling. Marseillaise: in the style of 19th century Marseille, this bedroom, with its furniture and contrasting colours puts one in mind of the bedrooms of our grandparents. It consists of a big room with a canopied bed, separate toilets and a bathroom with Salernes ivory tiling. Marie-Louise: this bedroom is coloured like the Provence, with immense wooden beams. Monacale: the more sober style. It also features Provencal style furniture such as a 'litoche' (a typical type of bed from the region) and a 'radassier' (a wooden canape type of double armchair with straw backing) and also a bathroom which puts one in mind of the 'souillardes'of yesteryear - the small sculleries which had water basins in them.
