Beautiful house with interesting history. Unlike the other mansions this was a full time residence. China miniatures and plates are on display if that's your thing

Very enjoyable with a great tour guide who could answer all our questions. It was a great stop on a not so good weather day.
Chateau-Sur-Mer means "castle by the sea." If you purchased a 5-mansion package instead of the Breakers plus one other mansion (which is HIGHLY recommended if you have the time), the Chateau-Sure-Mer should definitely be one of the five.
