A luxury chateau situated in an ancient charming French village
Time for a holiday in the south of France?
Nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees lies the charming medieval bastide of Chalabre, one of the oldest villages in France, and one of the few growing villages in the Occitanie. In recent years, the village has been rejuvenated thanks to the care of the local council and their community pride.
Once the residence of nobility, the unique, luxurious château has been recently renovated by its Australian owners. Known also as Château Chemin Vert, it is open year-round for private or business rentals, retreats and weddings. For groups and families, it’s a favourite weekly rental in the South of France.
Recommended by Oliver’s Travels, the château has four well-appointed oversized bedrooms and a 2-bedroom suite, all with lavish en-suite bathrooms, finished to the highest modern European standards. With two more additional suites available, the accommodation is suitable for up to 16 people. Living areas comprise the library, the Blue Salon, the Grand Salon with a Baroque hand-carved wooden fireplace, a gymnasium, and a dining room/orangerie with a south-facing outdoor terrace, perfect for alfresco dining in the summer.
Exclusively enclosed by high stone walls and set in 2700m² of manicured lawn, the chateau looks onto parterre gardens with potential for fresh seasonal produce, a pétanque court and a pristine 12 x 6m pool. This château has all the privacy and lushness of a country estate, but the proximity allows guests to experience life in a charming French village.
The château also offers an array of personalised services upon request including au pair, chef and tour guides. To reserve one of the best château rentals in the south of France, contact us to arrange your perfect stay.
