Saint-Jean-du-Gard, Languedoc-Roussillon 30270

Just 9kms from the delightful market town of St Jean du Gard, in the beautiful Gardon valley, lies this stunning chateau, which dates back to the late 12th century. The chateau is set in around 200 acres of the Cevennes National Park an area of unspoilt natural beauty and outstanding wildlife. The main chateau has been divided into four self-contained apartments, distributed around a central courtyard, each with its own outside area, and a guardian's cottage that has its own front door to the outside and also has access to the central courtyard.The principal apartment has a spacious reception and dining area that would be ideal for large receptions. However, the apartments could easily be recombined into one, large, family home. There are also two further self-contained holiday cottages adjacent to the chateau, along with various other outbuildings. The property enjoys a truly magical setting with its south-facing pool overlooking a secluded valley.
