A XIXth century château built upon the ruins of a Vauban fort , set in the middle of a flowery 3-hectare garden with both ancient trees and ornamental ponds , the Hostellerie des 3 Mousquetaires offers you the authentic charm of a beautiful French residence . The château is located at the entrance of Aire sur la Lys , between the borders of the Artois hills and the Flanders plains , the geographical centre of the north of France . Aire sur la Lys , a town full of traditions , has some wonderful monuments which stand as witness to a rich past including the Bailliage , a former barrack room built in 1600 in a Flemish Renaissance style , which was once run by d'Artagnan , the King's Mousquetaire .
