This property is a beautiful, unique, gem of a lovely experience. The owner and his wife are wonderful hosts attending to all needs with grace and professionalism. Staff is great, and has been with them for a long time. The Chateau has such charm and beauty. Located right by the Aude river, you hear the river and birds. The location is close to many points of interests about Mary Magdalene, Templars, Bugarach mountain, lovely southern France countryside beauty. A must to see and experience. Find your way there.

Historically pleasing and well maintained. The pictures of the pool somewhat misrepresent the size of the pool, and the breakfast is well over priced, but regardless our stay was enjoyable.

Service was fantastic. Despite arriving after the kitchen had closed they went over and above to provide us with food after a long day out. Facilities are great with a lovely swimming pool and river for a dip.
