Hotels in Cher, France

Cher is a department in central France, famous for its stunning Loire Valley châteaux and the medieval city of Bourges with its Gothic cathedral. The climate is temperate, with warm summers perfect for cycling along the Cher River and exploring the 15th-century Château de Valençay, while mild winters invite you to visit the stained glass windows of Bourges Cathedral without the crowds. In spring, the region bursts with flowers, making it ideal for hiking the Sologne marshes, but summer from June to August offers the best weather for picnicking by the river.
