You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Splendid villa with infinity pool - 8 hectares of parkland - Chateau Soules

Right from the start, Château Soules will amaze you with its elegance and exceptional natural beauty. Nestled in the heart of an 8-hectare wooded park, surrounded by oaks, umbrella pines and hundred-year-old box trees, you'll be enchanted by the tranquility that reigns here, and by the unique atmosphere that envelops this haven of peace, perfect for a vacation with family or friends.

But what makes Château Soules so unique is the promise of absolute privacy. The two adjoining buildings are unoccupied, ensuring that you're the sole master of the premises, with no neighbors as far as the eye can see. Here, you can enjoy every area of the château and grounds to the full.

Outside, an impressive 15 x 4-meter heated infinity pool is open from mid-May to the end of September. Right next to it, deckchairs invite you to relax by the water's edge, under the mild Tarn sun. And that's not all: the estate also boasts a large 5000m² lake, bordered by a pontoon and a walkway. Fishing enthusiasts will be delighted to learn that No Kill fishing is permitted here, adding a touch of adventure to your stay.

The castle's interior subtly combines old-world charm with modern comforts. The large, fully-equipped kitchen, with its professional appliances, is a real treat for gourmets, ideal for preparing delicious meals with family or friends. The warm atmosphere promises unforgettable moments of sharing. At night, the five large bedrooms, including a sumptuous master suite, are true refuges of softness, with king-size beds for a restful sleep worthy of the experience.

Château Soules is located in Lavaur, a charming city where history and culture intertwine. From the majestic Cathédrale Saint-Alain to the cobbled streets of the old town, every corner is an invitation to discover. And around Lavaur, the medieval villages of Puycelsi, Cordes-sur-Ciel and Castelnau-de-Montmiral transport you to another time, with their imposing ramparts and half-timbered houses. And don't forget Albi, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and Toulouse, the pink city, both within easy reach for an unforgettable cultural getaway.

For nature lovers, the area around the castle offers a multitude of hiking trails. Explore rolling hills, pastoral landscapes and breathtaking vistas. The gentle murmur of rivers will accompany you on your walks, while the vineyards of Gaillac, renowned for their unique wines, will offer your taste buds a memorable experience.

Last but not least, the castle is equipped with a Vérisure indoor surveillance system, connected to their central management system in the event of an intrusion. This system is active outside booking periods, to secure the premises when no one is present.

Château Soules awaits you for a luxurious, private getaway. Make your next vacation an unforgettable experience.

Beautiful Estate
Our group of 3 senior couples were very comfortable in this beautifully decorated, renovated large home. The kitchen was large and extremely well equipped with high end appliances. The location outside of Lavaur was convenient for day trips to Toulouse, Albi and other lovely villages. Stephane was very response to questions and needs.

Castle Dream
Chateau Soules was all I expected it to be! The castle is an excellent mix of history and late-modernity. The owner has done an excellent job of providing luxury accommodations while preserving a sense of home. We spent half of the day at the chateau and the other half exploring the French countryside. For Americans, this is the Downton Abbey dream…just in the French countryside.

Paix et bonheur
Propiété magnifique, avec des arbres majestueux. Nous avons passé une très agréable semaine entre trois couples d'amis avec enfants. Maison bien adaptée pour 12 personnes. Quelques finitions à terminer sur les exterieurs mais du détail. La demeure est superbement décorée et les pieces sont sapcieuses. La piscine d'eau salée est tres agréable. Le gestionnaire du bien, La petite toscane, Stéphane et Geraldine, sont charmants, agreables, et très disponibles, ce qui ajoute à la qualité de la prestation
