13th century castle, between Toulouse and Perpignan. COMPLETELY RESTORED! Location: Located in the south of France in the heart of the green Aude, 15 minutes from the medieval bastide of Mirepoix, 45 minutes from the city of Carcassonne and Toulouse, we are in the French countryside, where calm and serenity emanate from the place. Motorway access is 15 minutes away, TGV station and airports are 45 minutes away. History: The Seigneurie de Plaigne was built in the 13th century by the Cathar lord Guillaume de Plaigne. His last descendant, Anne de Plaigne, who married the Count of Pibrac in 1642, sold the castle to François Paul de Béon-Masse-Cazeaux, Grand Prior of the Order of Malta in Toulouse, who refounded it in 1688 as a commandery of the Order of Saint John. It was the largest and most recent commandery in Languedoc. It remained part of the Order of Malta's property until the Revolution. The castle : the elegance of this place is surprising. The park with its hundred year old trees gives off a softness and freshness. The castle has retained the spirit of the fortress, as evidenced by the great Hall of the Knights. However, it has been tastefully restored by two generations of owners. The 12 double rooms in the castle and the 4 double rooms in the independent cottage offer a capacity of 32 people in absolute comfort with a swimming pool. What we think: We see many exceptional properties. This castle is a timeless place where one feels a great sense of well-being whilst remaining connected to a regional metropolis.

This imposing château, an emblematic part of the region's historic heritage, was saved from ruin nearly 60 years ago by an aesthete who loved old stones and undertook a colossal restoration project to bring it back to life. This stately home takes the form of a majestic main building flanked by 2 keeps to the north and south. Designed in the 11th and 12th centuries as a fortress, the castle was altered several times between the 14th and 17th centuries, and the chapel dates from the 16th century.

A castle and its feudal keep set on the eastern flank of its 30-hectare estate in the Vallée Française in the Cévennes mountains. Formerly the stronghold of the Arnal family, who at the end of the 17th century owned most of the valley and the hamlet of Beaumelle, hence the name Arnal de la Beaumelle, the castle was burnt down in 1702 during the War of the Camisards. When it was rebuilt between 1730 and 1740, it lost most of its fortified appearance. The keep still dominates the surrounding buildings constructed along a lane: a castle resembling a feudal residence flanked by two towers, as well as a number of outbuildings destined for farming, including cowsheds and a shed for drying chestnuts. This mainly west-facing hilltop hamlet commands the southern valley. Fed by several springs, the estate has developed over the last two centuries thanks to livestock activities and terraced crop cultivation on the many well-oriented 'restanques” (terraces). The river at the bottom of the valley used to power several mills.

History : Château de Saint Martin de Toques. This castle is considered to be the only completely reconstructed privately owned Catharic castle still in existence. Its origins go back further than the anti-Catholic religious movement that flourished in the region from 1100 to 1300; they date back to Roman times. In Roman times Saint Martin de Toques served as a guard post for the Roman roads that wound through the countryside below. Later, the castle became the property of the Vicomtesse de Narbonne. When the previous owner acquired the castle in 1990, it was in ruins. Something - the beauty of the location with a 360-degree view over the Corbières vineyards, the rugged strength of the remaining massive walls, the romance of the drawbridge - intrigued him so much that he embarked on a multi-year, multi-million- euro restoration. He didn't just rebuild, but restored every detail as it might have been in 978 AD, when the powerful de Narbonne family inhabited the site. Since there were not enough original stones for the entire project, additional material was excavated from a neighboring hill. Antique dealers from around the world were contacted to procure all the elements: the massive interlocking wooden doors, the huge carved stone fireplaces, the narrow spiral staircases, the gargoyles filling the plunge pool in the center of the courtyard with water. During the restoration, the previous owner added modern amenities that were carefully hidden so as not to destroy the historic atmosphere. The floors are made of solid stone slabs, others of oak blocks, 25 cubes in square oak frames that rattle quietly against each other as you walk on them. Most of the rooms have electric underfloor heating, making the castle pleasant to live in even in winter. Light switches are hidden in tiny niches carved into the rock walls. Indirect mood lighting provides light under the wooden beams. 7 of the 8 bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, all individually appointed to match the charm of each bedroom. The bathroom fixtures and fittings are all antique and unique. Materials such as sandstone, marble, wood and copper are mainly used. This makes it possible for residents to feel the atmosphere of a bygone era without sacrificing the comforts of today. Two modern showers and 4 modern toilets have been carefully integrated. After 25 years of reconstruction and renovation, the property was sold in 2019 to the current owner, who continued the work with the aim of creating and renting unique apartments on the farm and raising the castle to a new level of quality of life.
