Chateau Siregarde - Eleven Bedroom Castle, Sleeps 17 | Other in Castelnau-Picampeau

Set in 50 acres of park and woodland where deers graze early in the morning, beautiful Château Siregarde has been finished to a high standard and successfully combines old-world charm with modern day amenities including the heated 20m-long swimming pool.
This traditional French château is generously proportioned over two floors with a splendid grand hall, numerous reception rooms and a characterful kitchen to enchant the keenest of French cooks. Step back in time across the eleven individually decorated bedrooms – from grand doubles with en suite bathrooms to simpler singles, there are flexible sleeping arrangements for up to 17 guests.
You are warmly welcomed on arrival with a light supper accompanied by wine. There is a superb 18th century terrace at the front of the château, perfect for al-fresco lunches with family and friends, and guests have use of the gas and charcoal barbecue to make the most of dining in the garden. It’s a very short stroll across to the heated swimming pool with its relaxing poolside terrace overlooking the garden and trees.
Originally landscaped in an English fashion, the garden and vast grounds are magnificent – look out for ancient trees including a 350-year old cedar tree as well as a large pond with nesting ducks. Other original features across the parkland include the remains of the 18th century dairy (now home to table tennis and table football) and a stable dating back to the early 19th century. Admire wild flowers across the fields in the spring and summer or wild mushrooms including cêpes amongst the trees in the autumn months. The 25-acres of unspoilt woodland is magical.
Located in a rural hamlet, there is an old village less than a 10-minute drive away with restaurants, an excellent butchers and a supermarket whilst the small market town of Cazères, by the banks of the Garonne, is 15km by car. Take long walks and enjoy picnics by the river and, in the height of the summer, discover boating, canoeing and more adventurous watersports at Cazères’ Base Nautique.
Food lovers note that Cazères hosts a picturesque market on a Saturday morning where local farmers showcase their produce. Meanwhile, there are plenty of other great markets in nearby towns - the Monday morning market in Samatan is especially worthy of your time (well-known for its quality poultry and winter ‘fat market’).
Spend the day in Toulouse, La Ville Rose, so loved for its pink-hued stone architecture and fascinating heritage. This cosmopolitan city is also famed for its fantastic markets, art galleries, food and wine scene as well as its attractive setting by the Garonne River. To explore the city’s surroundings, hire bikes and cycle along the towpath of the Canal du Midi for a truly wonderful experience in southern France.
