I'm delighted to be able to take you to Raulhac in the Cantal department, 35 minutes from Aurillac. Raulhac is classified as a "Petite cité de Caractère" and is the perfect embodiment of charm and tranquillity. Nestling in the heart of the Auvergne Volcanoes Regional Nature Park, Raulhac offers an exceptional natural setting. Raulhac boasts a rich historical and cultural heritage. The village, whose origins date back to the Middle Ages, is characterised by its stone houses, lauze roofs and picturesque lanes. The church of Saint-Pierre bears witness to the religious and architectural importance of the village over the centuries.
Raulhac is an ideal destination for those looking to escape the urban hustle and bustle and reconnect with nature and history. 
Now discover the timeless elegance of the 16th-century château, carefully restored to preserve its historic authenticity.
Since its foundation in the 16th century, the site has evolved from a stronghold house to a thriving family residence, closely linked to the neighbouring château de Messilhac. 
At the end of the 19th century, Eugène Jordan de Puyfol, a renowned botanist, extended the manor house to house his botanical and heraldic collections, which can still be seen today.
The château comprises a sixteenth-century section and another dating from the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, covering a total of 650 m² on three floors. Its majestic towers and light-coloured stone give it a unique look. Inside, the château reveals its exceptional character with oak parquet flooring, carved fireplaces and other tastefully restored historical features.
You'll find spacious bedrooms with modern bathrooms, light-filled living rooms thanks to numerous windows, and even a sauna. The numerous outbuildings include a 65 m² caretaker's cottage, a 90 m² former stable, a magnificent Neo-Gothic chapel consecrated with a solid oak altar that adds a touch of spirituality to this enchanting setting. And a large greenhouse once used by the botanist, testifying to the love of nature and science that permeates this estate.
The property extends over 16 hectares of woods and meadows, fed by a private source of drinking water, dotted with century-old trees, a pond and a pergola, offering a true haven of peace with a breathtaking view over the Carladès valley.
