  1. A sixteenth-century château on a 24-hectare estate in the Loire, with vineyards, manicured French gardens, and woodland on all sides. The 17 rooms lean into the history without apology: Toile de Jouy wallpaper, four-poster beds, antique furnishings. Ground-floor rooms in the Clock Pavilion come with a private garden. The restaurant runs breakfast through dinner on seasonal, local cooking, and a heated outdoor pool is there for when the aristocratic fantasy fully takes hold.

    One honor, in evidence:
