Left to decay for decades during the 20th century, the château has recently been renovated by Propriétés & Co’s team of local artisans and builders - who have breathed new life into its elegant Belle Epoque columns, soaring windows, soft slate rooves and intricate moldings. Overgrown gardens have been cut back and replanted with elegantly-laid-out lavender, oleander and roses - punctuated by towering Cyprus pines. A 25 metre pool, framed by soft stone paving, forms the centre-piece of the development’s gardens - overlooked by newly-constructed homes built in the style of traditional out-buildings.

Within the château itself, formal rooms have been transformed in to a restaurant, wine bar and luxury spa, while a number of wine, cuisine and cultural events and courses are planned both within the château and its grounds.
