Description
Definitely worth leaving the autoroute to explore this tiny medieval village, with a couple of very appetising boulangerie / patisserie, a deer park and enticingly dozey atmosphere. Before you get to the village, there's a massive forest for a dog run.

Perfect Stop
Fantastic place to stop. 6 mins from exit 24 and miles of off lead through the forest. We saw a deer cross the main path and then realised why on the way back as there was a tiny baby fawn hidden in the long grass. Luckily Ralph was impeccably behaved. We found some logs to perch on at the first main cross section of paths where we stopped and ate our sandwiches bought from Paul at the Châteauvillain service station just before exit 24. When looking for the parking place described it is on the right hand turning after the right hand bend marked by the red and white posts (not the first road on the right marked by red and white poles). This will definitely be our regular stop from now on and we will make time to explore Châteauvillain next time.
