On the border of Cantal and Aveyron, overlooking the Goul valley, stands a medieval and Renaissance castle on a 15-hectare estate. Located in the center of its territory and isolated in a completely preserved environment, the castle, fully classified as MH, rises above the valley that marks the historical boundary between Haute-Auvergne and Rouergue. The main access is via the eastern side where there was likely an old drawbridge. Its origins date back to the Middle Ages when the site was just a keep surrounded by a defensive enclosure of five to seven towers. Today, remnants from that era include the first keep to the west, a second tower built in the 15th century to the east, as well as one of the truncated defensive towers, surrounded by terraces and open spaces. The central residence, built during the Renaissance between the two square towers, features numerous double casement windows on its south facade and a sculpted decoration around the main entrance. An additional wing was added on the north side in the 18th century. Inside, the layout of the rooms has not been changed. In addition to a monumental Italian staircase, the ground floor consists of an old low hall now serving as a dining room, a small television lounge, two kitchens – the original and a more recent one – as well as access to the cellars and a garage. The first floor includes an old lord's room, a contiguous small lounge, two bedrooms, and a shower room with toilets. Access to the 18th-century section leads to a succession of three bedrooms with water points, a bathroom, and separate toilets. The second floor comprises a spacious room known as the 'Queen's Room,' an office, two other bedrooms, and a shower room with toilets. A half-landing passage leads to a shower room and the attic of the 18th-century section. The third floor consists of a display room, followed by a guest room, former service rooms, and an interior dovecote. A small staircase leads to the loft with a large room under the rafters and two chimneys. It precedes a chapel and the upper parts of the two towers. A caretaker's house and a swimming pool are also located on the estate.
