Set in its own 15 acre wooded and lawned grounds, deep in the countryside and so not overlooked from any angle, Dournes is an 18th century ‘Maison de Maitre’. It is situated on the borders of Tarn and Haute Garonne, 8km NE of the small town of Revel, 20km SW of Castres. We have recently refurbished the Chateau, finishing it to a high standard and equipping it with a mix of modern and antique furniture. Having spent many happy holidays here with our 4 children and their friends, we can testify that it is ideal for family holidays and ‘getting away from it all’…but doing so in style! Ground floor accommodation comprises lounge, Chinese sitting room, chandeliered dining room, study, games room (with full size snooker table, table football and TV), fully equipped kitchen and utility rooms and WC. There are 5 bedrooms on the first floor. The master double has a separate dressing room and bathroom as well as its own sun terrace. The second double is also ensuite. The twin and two singles share another bathroom and 2 WCs. The remaining 3 beds (1 twin, 1 single) are in their own, separate ‘caretaker’s’ apartment. This has its own entrance, lounge, kitchen and bathroom and is rented free with the Chateau. Our pool is a 20m long, heated, salt water pool. Please note that the Chateau shares its location and certain facilities (pool, washing and tumble dryer machines) with our Farmhouse which we also rent out. However, to ensure maximum privacy and exclusive use of all our facilities, we offer those renting the Chateau the option of also renting the farm ‘unoccupied’ at half the going rate.
