CASTLE - Poil, bourgogne-franche-comté, FRANKREICH
Über
Das 40 Minuten vom Pariser Stadtzentrum entfernte Château de Villette ist eines der bemerkenswertesten Schlösser Frankreichs, das seit 1942 von der französischen Regierung unter Denkmalschutz gestellt wird. Eingebettet in einen 75 Hektar großen Waldpark, mit zwei Seen, einem prächtigen Kaskadenbrunnen, einem Glashaus und einer Orangerie, ganz zu schweigen von der unglaublich üppigen Innenausstattung, ist das Château de Villette der Inbegriff von Eleganz, Luxus und dem berühmten französischen Ausdruck "art de vivre". Ursprünglich wurde es von dem Architekten François Mansart für den Grafen von Aufflay entworfen und später von seinem Großneffen Jules Hardouin-Mansart, dem Chefarchitekten Ludwigs XV. und gleichzeitigen Bauleiter von Schloss Versailles, vollendet. Auch der prächtige Garten von Château de Villette wurde von André Le Nôtre entworfen, der auch die berühmten Gärten von Château de Versailles angelegt hat. Daher hat er auch den Namen Le Petit Versailles (das kleine Versailles) erhalten.
Historisch gesehen gilt das 18. Jahrhundert als die Blütezeit von Château de Villette. Die damaligen Besitzer von Château de Villette, Sophie de Grouchy, eine prominente Salongastgeberin, und ihr Ehemann, Marquis de Condorcet, luden führende Intellektuelle wie Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin und Thomas Paine nach Château de Villette ein. In der Neuzeit war das Château de Villette Zufluchtsort für viele Berühmtheiten wie John Travolta, Tom Cruise und Lenny Kravitz. Es war eine Inspirationsquelle für Dan Brown, der den "Da Vinci Code" während eines Aufenthalts im Château schrieb und später als Drehort für die Verfilmung genutzt wurde.

Quick answers about how Plush74 works.
Plush74 is a curated marketplace for film, photo and event locations across Europe. Clients browse thousands of handpicked spaces, like villas, lofts, studios and event venues, search by description or reference image, chat directly with the location owner, and book through the platform. Location owners can list their space, receive booking requests, and manage everything through their own dashboard.
Search using filters, a text description, or a reference image. Save the ones you like, then send a chat request straight to the owner. You can message several locations and manage every conversation from one inbox. Once you agree on dates and price, Plush74 handles the contract and payment, and you'll see the booking move through simple status steps. Browsing and chatting is free for clients.
Three steps: apply on our listing page and pay a one-time €74 onboarding fee, our team personally reviews your submission for quality, and once approved you get a dashboard to upload photos, set your price and go live. Clients then contact you directly through chat. Plush74 only takes a commission when a booking actually happens. No booking, no fee. There's no monthly subscription.
Each owner sets their own rental rate. Plush74 doesn't fix prices. Rates are usually shown and booked as a day rate, with a standard day counted as 10 hours and extra time billed as overtime. Prices are shown in the location's local currency (EUR or CHF) and are net, excluding VAT where applicable. Always confirm the exact rate and what's included in your quote.
To protect our locations' privacy, listings are shown under a working name and a general area (city and country) only, never the exact street address, until a booking is confirmed. This lets owners stay discoverable without exposing their address to everyone browsing. Once your request becomes a confirmed booking, the full address and details are shared in your booking confirmation and contract.
For general questions, email yeah@plush74.com. The team reads every message. You can also call +49 30 7001 6966, available 09:00-18:00 CET, Monday to Friday. If you're a location owner with a listing question, use members@plush74.com instead. There's also a Contact page with all these details.
There are two main paths: a free client account for anyone looking to find and book a location (browse, save favourites, chat with owners, track requests), and a member account for location owners who want to list a space (upload photos, set pricing, receive chat requests, manage bookings). Companies or agencies managing several locations apply the same way. You choose your path when you sign up.
On any listing page, scroll to the request form below the photos and fill in your name, email, phone, project, budget, team size and dates, plus a short message about your shoot. Click Send Request. The more detail you give, the faster our team can confirm availability. All requests are screened before a chat opens with the location.
