The Unique Benefits of this Country Estate
The picturesque property is set on fifty acres of farmland, pasture and sunflowers. Time spent at la Castellane is filled with relaxation, wonderful meals and discovering surrounding medieval villages. The estate sits atop a hill with views of sprawling vistas and on a clear day, the Pyrenees are visible in the distance. The property houses three black Arabian horses (available for the experienced rider to take on long rides in the surrounding country), two friendly goats, chicken and ducks. Fruit trees and vegetable gardens fleck the property, with a large swimming pool with covered patio decking just a few steps from the house. A converted, open barn, facing the Pyrenees mountains attached to the kitchen hosts the best view on the property and is the main dining area in the warmer months. Seven bicycles, a basketball court, ping pong, foozball, badminton, croquet and archery are also available. Every day of the week hosts a different local outdoor market and antique shopping at the many "brocantes" in the region can be a true treasure hunt.
