A castle and its renovated medieval keep with a stunning view over the surrounding 15 ha of open countryside, on the edge of a historic village between Conques and Espalion. Built on a southern hillside, on a site that dominates the village 200 m to the east, the castle sits in the heart of nature and cannot be made out from the first buildings of the town. The narrow road leading from the valley to the property ends in front of a barn and a perimeter wall. Past a heavy wooden gate, a driveway bordered by chequered terraces leads to the castle. The land includes fields and forests with a combination of oak, chestnut, ash and walnut trees and, below the castle, old varieties of fig, apple and plum trees. Situated in an old wine-growing area, the building was once surrounded by vines: the ancient unused terraces have disappeared under the cover of the budding oak. A network of pipes linking eight cisterns, still partially accessible, ensured the collection of rainwater in winter and the irrigation of crops. At the rear of the castle, on a terrace maintained by pink sandstone supporting walls, there is a garden followed by a swimming pool. The garden consists of a parterre with four rectangular beds, punctuated with terracotta lanterns. It is accessed from the living room via a glass door. The pool, which faces the setting sun, is edged by a row of trees on the valley side. A footpath leads from the castle to the village.
