Château Coliving: Coliving for a Living 🇫🇷

Best co live I’ve ever been to! Amazing place to unplug for a month. The hosts are incredible and the place itself has everything you need and more. Take a chance, go meet some strangers for a month that turn into family.
It’s a special place- best way to see Normandy France for a month

It's hard to explain how special and magical the Chateau is. I've done several colivings - and always have more that I plan to do -but this one just takes the cake and I fear nothing will top it!

If you're the type of person who wants to co-create a community, who wants to connect deeply with others, wants to slow down and experience something different than most folks will ever see in France, appreciates history, loves nature, and yes - are eager to wash your dishes and even the dishes of others - then the Chateau could be just the thing for you.

Waking up in a centuries old castle, surrounded by an open-minded and loving community, heading down to the kitchen for your 15th cup of coffee, cozying up by the fire, eating your 45th wheel of brie ... this could all be available to you!

Some of the many things that make the chateau amazing are:
- INCREDIBLE community managers. Seriously, my stay would not have been the same without the truly remarkable Sarah, Alejandra, and Kevin. They infuse the magic and love into every day and I'm so grateful for them.
- A shared starting date - everyone arrives on the same page, ready to create something beautiful together
- Blazing fast Wifi in the coworking space
- Thursday night community dinners
- Sunday morning crepes!!
- Teams to share the work of keeping the community spinning together
- Great Slack communications and easy onboarding
- Living in a place steeped in history, ancient and modern
- A big TV to gather round for shared shows and movies
- Twice weekly grocery pickup
- Grounds that just shimmer with magic somehow (maybe it's the fog?!)

I spent about 6 weeks at the Chateau and I could not have been more grateful for them. If you have the opportunity and want to create something unique and beautiful with others, I could not recommend it more. ❤️🏰✨

Our stay at Chateau de L’Isle Marie was delightful! Living in a castle for two weeks was the highlight of our entire trip to France. Located in a Natural Park Normandy, the chateau is close to D-day beaches, many cute towns, and a short road trip to Mont St Michel. Our bedroom and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. The common areas were very spacious and comfortable and we enjoyed spending time and joining in on fun activities with the other guests. We work remotely and the office space had very good WiFi, and comfortable desks and chairs. Jorge and Gabe did an AMAZING job managing the chateau and creating a wonderful atmosphere and community among the co-livers. They were very attentive to our needs. Highly recommend this place to any digital nomad!

Staying at this lovely chateau was one of the highlights of our recent trip to France (we stayed here as a base for exploring Normandy). We had such a peaceful and restorative stay. Valentina and Nicola are excellent hosts, and dinner was truly unforgettable!

Beautiful grounds, the atmosphere is very relaxing

A beautiful co-living in a beautiful castle with beautiful people. I went for the co-living for a living experience and found it inspiring and informative. Highly recommended.

An exceptional coliving & coworking experience in Normandy

I’ve been lucky enough to spend time at Château Coliving, and it’s honestly one of the most inspiring experiences I’ve ever had. The château itself is beautiful — thoughtfully restored, elegantly decorated, and surrounded by peaceful Normandy countryside. The rooms are bright, comfortable, and full of character, with everything you need to feel at home.

But what makes this place extraordinary is the community. It’s a genuine family of kind, creative, and interesting people from all over the world. We shared dinners, afternoon teas, game nights (“Among Us” nights here are legendary), art sessions, skill shares, and hikes through the nearby countryside and along the coastline. The hosts also organize amazing day trips — to places like Bayeux, Étretat, Mont-Saint-Michel, Granville, and Dieppe — that make you fall even more in love with Normandy.

If you’re looking for a place where you can focus, create, and feel instantly welcome, this is it. Château Coliving provides the perfect environment for productivity, friendship, and inspiration. I’ll always carry my time here in my heart. 💛

I spent a month living in the chateau, and what a magical month! Almost every review will probably say that, and there's a reason. I met the most amazing people, ate delicious food, lived like a king, and learned a lot of history. I will definitely return, and I highly recommend anybody considering staying here to do it.

I had a truly incredible month at Chateau Coliving in August 2025. I looked forward to it for months and really built it up in my imagination, so was a little worried it wouldn’t live up to expectations but in fact it exceeded them.

The chateau itself is spacious but not huge - kind of perfect, small enough to feel cozy and familiar but big enough to be able to get space to yourself. One big concern was the kitchen - with 22 colivers I thought it would get slammed at meal times, but this rarely happened because people were on such different schedules. And I loved bumping into one or two friends when I wandered into the kitchen. Very easy and comfortable.

The best thing about this experience is the thoughtful community management. The team did an amazing job at welcoming us and helping our group to gel authentically and quickly. By the end of the first week, we were all close and connected, which is remarkable.

The facilities are a little worn and rustic, which was what I expected, but worth flagging if you’re expecting a five star resort experience! This is a homey place, which means lived-in furniture (many of which are antiques with tons of charm and character!) And I LOVED my room with shared bath. Felt super special. Altogether a really great experience; I’ll be back!
