Step back in time at Château Toulouse, a beautifully restored Renaissance-style castle from 1880. Once a thriving centre of tobacco farming, the château has been thoughtfully renovated, blending its historic charm with modern comforts. From its grand architecture to its unique features, Château Toulouse promises an unforgettable stay.
One of the standout highlights is the 20-metre private pool, perfect for sunny afternoons surrounded by serene countryside views. In the evenings, gather for a magical experience at the quirky outdoor cinema in the château’s former tobacco-drying shed, where the original ropes once used to dry tobacco still hang from the roof. For indoor entertainment, the elegant billiard room offers a cosy retreat filled with timeless sophistication. Create mouthwatering wood-fired pizzas in the historic stone oven — the caretaker can help if you’re not confident using the oven or making the perfect fluffy base.
The château features 10 beautifully appointed bedrooms designed to combine comfort and character. For larger groups or added privacy, the nearby Pigeonnier — a charmingly renovated pigeon tower — offers three additional bedrooms, a rustic-style kitchen and a cosy living room. This separate apartment adds flexibility while keeping a warm, intimate atmosphere.
Whether exploring the château’s storied past or relaxing in its peaceful surroundings, Château Toulouse is a destination that perfectly marries history, elegance and comfort.

An absolutely delightful experience. Beautiful chateau, clean rooms, amazing hosts.
One of our favourite weeks ever!! We absolutely loved it! We made such happy memories. The pool was glorious and given the weather was so hot when we were there it was invaluable. The beds were very comfy. We loved the outdoor cinema and watched the Euro Finals in there to great effect, as well as a film one night.
A week is too short! If you are looking for a castle/château experience in France, this one is hard to go past. We were 21 people, between 8 and 76, flying in from Sweden and Australia to celebrate a 50th birthday and we loved every minute. Beautiful surrounds with lots to do in the area. Highly recommended!
The place is unreal. Michael the groundskeeper is sound and on hand for anything you might need help with. Pool is ace, pretty bracing temp-wise but in hot weather it'll be ideal. Just a very well maintained and tastefully decorated chateau in a beautiful spot. Hope I get to visit again one day.
