Built in 1890 and fully renovated in 2025, Château de l’Ille is an exceptional property located in Saint-Laurent-de-Cerdans, in the heart of the Vallespir region of the Pyrénées-Orientales. With approximately 1,000 m² of built space, the estate is organized around the main château, two annexes, a caretaker's house, and a vast landscaped park. Together, they form a rare property, simultaneously a heritage residence and a haven for high-end hospitality. The main château forms the elegant heart of the property.

The second floor houses four suites, offering a more intimate and residential atmosphere. In the basement, technical areas, storage spaces, and a wine cellar complete the building's functional spaces.

This renovation combines performance, comfort, and respect for the spirit of the place.
