Feel aversion to some châteaux (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hate

'feel aversion to' is the definition.

'some chateaux' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'HATE' can be found hidden inside 'chateaux'.

(Other definitions for hate that I've seen before include "Intense dislike" , "Odium" , "Passion" , "'Unimaginable as ---- in Heav'n': Milton" , "Dislike intensely" .)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
