The region
Toulouse, Carcassonne, the Périgord: the great South-West
This is our best-stocked region, and the most varied. Around Toulouse, under an hour away: Château de Longpré, built for weddings of 150; Château de Coulom, a 17th-century manor in the Lauragais; Château de Riveneuve at Pamiers, 30 beds and 120 guests; Château de Malvignol between Albi and Castres; Château Rouzaud in the Ariège. Towards Carcassonne, Château La Commanderie, a 13th-century Cathar fortress, and Château de Goudourville, 11th-century, in 25 hectares. To the north, Château de Roussillon, a medieval fortress near Cahors, and Château du Trioulou in the Aveyron. In the Dordogne, Château de La Meynardie in the heart of the Périgord Vert, Château de Garraube near Bergerac. And among the vines: Pitray at Saint-Émilion, Briat in Armagnac, Les Bloys at the gates of Bordeaux, Pontié and its 100 hectares.
All are rented for your exclusive use: the château, estate or manor house whole. The owners welcome you, then leave you the place — drawing rooms, kitchen, grounds, pool. That is the difference from a hotel or a large holiday rental, and it is why the South-West is our most requested region for weddings: the light, the table, and guests who sleep on site.
All around, everything travellers look for here: Toulouse and the Capitole, the walled city of Carcassonne, Albi and its cathedral, Cahors and the Pont Valentré, Sarlat, Lascaux and the Vézère valley, Rocamadour, Saint-Émilion, the Canal du Midi, the bastides of the Lauragais, the Ariège Pyrenees and Montségur. From 12 to 30 beds, up to 250 guests for a reception.

They stayed there
« “I wanted to send you a big thank you from the bottom of my heart after the wonderful weekend we spent at your such a welcoming castle! When Nicolas told me about this weekend, I was already excited about the idea of this getaway with the team in such an incredible setting, but I also imagined long, somewhat gloomy hallways, sleeping on the floor, and it being a bit cold (that was a given in my idea of a medieval castle!) But it turned out to be a fairytale castle, with a magnificent setting, plush beds for everyone, and above all, a warm and welcoming atmosphere that speaks volumes about the owners! This weekend, completely cut off from reality and surrounded by such beautiful nature, did me a world of good during this somewhat gloomy time of year—and judging by the many messages exchanged in our WhatsApp group, the same goes for all the happy participants! So, thank you again to the Châtelains de Pamiers for their generosity!” »
