The property was absolutely stunning, beautiful house with lots of character. Massive grounds to explore and a lovely pool to sit in and soak up the sun. It was well equipped we cooked big meals for 11 of us every night with no issues. There was lots of things to do in the house, billiards, croquet, play piano, watch tv. Jonathon who lives next door is very relaxed and was extremely helpful. Aurelia (sorry if misspelled!) made us delicious quiches and snacks on arrival and came every morning to clean and take the rubbish, they did this without getting in the way or intruding at all. Thoroughly enjoyed our trip there and would recommend. We 100% plan on going back!

Sure! Here’s a shorter, more informal version of your review: --- We had an amazing stay at this château in the tiny village of Castelnau-Picampeau, about an hour’s scenic drive south of Toulouse. It’s even more impressive in person than in the photos—grand gates, a big fountain out front, and beautiful lawns make for a stunning first impression. The inside is just as special—spacious, full of character, and flooded with natural light when the shutters are open. Every room feels palatial, and the views of the gardens are lovely. There’s loads of space outside too, including a woodland area the kids loved, and a gorgeous pool with a shaded eating area, outdoor kitchen, and even a volleyball/badminton net. The place has everything you need. We were looked after by a lovely couple who live on-site and were always around to help if we needed anything. One day we used the bikes provided to explore the surrounding hills, and another day we visited Carcassonne—highly recommend!
