This historic property, originally built by Guillaume de Plaigne, a Cathar lord, offers a unique blend of medieval architecture and contemporary comfort. Located just 45 minutes from both Toulouse and Carcassonne, it enjoys a strategic position amidst the picturesque landscapes of the Pays de Cocagne. The château, which has belonged to the same Franco-American family since 1973, showcases a successful marriage of historic character and modern amenities. Its stone façades reveal remarkable architectural features, including mullioned windows, monumental period fireplaces, and elegant reception rooms. The impressive Knights' Hall and a chapel nestled within a tower further enhance the estate's historical significance. The interior is complemented by a collection of beautifully appointed guest rooms, each reflecting the spirit of Languedoc and an openness to diverse cultures. The estate boasts a magnificent four-hectare landscaped park, complete with centuries-old trees and riding avenues, while a natural basin swimming pool integrates seamlessly into the tranquil environment.
