About Chateau de Rustiques

Set between the Mediterranean and the Pyrenees, Château de Rustiques is perfectly placed for discovering the rich history and natural beauty of the Languedoc. Just a few kilometres from the famous Cité de Carcassonne and within easy reach of the Cathar castles, the region is steeped in heritage. The long sandy beaches of Gruissan and Leucate are about an hour away, while the colourful seaside villages of Collioure and Banyuls can be reached in around 90 minutes.

The recently refurbished cottages offer both independence and the pleasure of staying together. Perfect for families! Set within 120 hectares of vineyards, olive groves and pine forest, the estate moves to the gentle rhythm of a working wine domaine. Vineyard walks, wine tastings and sweeping countryside views create a peaceful backdrop for a stay in the Languedoc. Each gîte features a private terrace — the perfect place to unwind and take in the surrounding landscape.

Outdoor spaces are designed for relaxed, sociable moments. A charming BBQ area overlooks the olive groves, ideal for casual meals and long summer evenings, while the estate’s beautiful courtyard provides a magical setting for dining al fresco beneath soft fairy lights.

For gatherings and special occasions, the estate also offers a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces. The Orangerie, a bright and elegant reception space with a built-in sound system, provides a welcoming setting for meetings, celebrations and private events.

The heated swimming pool, lined with loungers and umbrellas, invites slow afternoons under the southern French sun. A tennis court and pétanque court add to the relaxed outdoor lifestyle of the estate.

From morning coffee on the terrace to dinners beneath the courtyard lights, life here is shaped by the gentle rhythm of the Languedoc vineyards.
