About this property

This elegant 18th Century country house is surrounded by a beautiful lush park that spans 2 ha. Within its private grounds are a lovely large pool in the midst of a garden with plane trees; a trampoline, slide and swing in the shade of pine trees; a wondrous maze which is perfect for playing hide and seek; and groves that double as the idyllic spot for petanque or ping pong. Beyond the spacious garden, inside lies a perfect sanctuary: a library where you can relax while escaping into the world of good books.
The house is the ideal place to discover the remarkable surroundings. The splendour of Provence villages, Roman monuments, sunny vineyards, bicycle tours, pleasant walks, horseback rides, the mythical landscapes of Mont Ventoux, and the Dentelles de Montmirail. It’s a magical place where family and friends will have fun and enjoy a real vacation.

Fantastic vacation spot for a family vacation!

The house, garden, and pool are absolutely beautiful. There is plenty of space, beds, kitchen items, eating areas, etc for a large group of people to have a relaxing vacation together. Camille was very responsive with all of our questions. Marie Noelle, the cool, made us a few delicious meals and was so sweet. I would highly recommend this home!

A jewel in the middle of wine country!

This chateau is simply amazing! Our extended family was 6 adults and 7 kids and we had plenty of room! The house grew on us and at the end of our week none of us wantes to leave! We visited in the height of the August heat and the pool was an absolute must! We were in and out constantly and it was so refreshing! The property is expansive and beautiful, from the trees and vines to the architecture of the house and buildings. The owners were very responsive and Daniel, the groundskeeper, was always happy with assistance when needed. It is ideally located close to Avignon, Chateauneuf du Pape and Mount Ventoux. We can't recommend this property highly enough and will definitely be going back!

Magnifique!

I stayed for 15 days with friends, I can’t even explain how perfect this place is for a group of friends to spend time making dinners every night and sit on a long beautiful table outside and enjoy each other’s company. I am in awe of how beautiful the grounds are and the incredible house , old in the best Provençal way, fully stocked, comfortable beds, we were extremely happy. Daniel who takes care of the estate was wonderful and helpful.We are already planning to go back as soon as we all can!

Our family loved this property and would gladly do so again. Plenty of space and has something for everyone of all ages. There is a fully stocked kitchen with appropriate condiments and room galore for conversation or reading. Many wineries. The hosts were responsive. Plan your trip now!

About the host

Hosted by Camille et Alain Risse-Raud

In 1893 a young industrial man, friend of the family, who is building a plant in Camaret (of which there are still the old brick chimney in the village center) asks the Coste family to use their service quarter to install its first machines and begin forming his employee: my great grandfather Martial Raud.

The Coste leave him their house Camaret as they come less often. My grandmother and two of my great uncles are born during this long stay.
In 1897 Martial dies suddenly at 41. We have to leave, the Coste get their house back, house now called "Château-Coste, as often in the south.

In September 1949 my grand mother, back from Madagascar, buys the the Château-Coste where she was born. The park is reduced to 2 hectares, but the trees are beautiful.
The path to the house are rows of plane trees, and the iron front gate from Girard (excellent ironworker from Avignon from the eighteenth century) continues to drive our friends towards the house.
