Photos and Description of this Ventenac-en-Minervois holiday chateau / country house Holiday Gite ideal for large groups, 6 Bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, sleeps 14 (+2).

Château Ventenac sits beside the Canal du Midi, which wends its way gently through the Languedoc region, linking Toulouse to Montpelier and the Mediterranean Sea. We have recently restored part of this turn of the century stone castle to create a comfortable holiday house for self-catering rentals, with a private pool. The period style bedrooms and beautiful terraced gardens all have wonderful views over the vineyards to the hills of the Corbières and the Pyrenees beyond. The whole house is available for self-catering holidays comfortably accommodating up to 14 people, so suitable for groups and families. Off season we offer regular courses, including painting, yoga, French cookery, Cathar history and wine tasting, “A Taste of France” and “Rest and Recuperate” weeks for total relaxation away from the cares of the world. We can also customise courses to suit the needs of your group.

Ventenac is a delightfully peaceful and friendly village, perfectly located for exploring the Languedoc region.The restored canal-side is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In the village itself we have two restaurants offering a wide choice of menus and informal dining, as well as a mobile bakery which is open every morning. In nearby villages there are other restaurants, plus supermarkets, bakers, general stores, tabacs, cafés and bars. The pure sandy beaches of the Mediterranean Sea are about 30 minutes’ drive away, with a choice of family resorts such as Narbonne Plage and Gruisson, with its unusual chalets supported on stilts. From the house you can see the hills of the Corbières range, with the Pyrenees behind them – about an hour away by car. The famous medieval city of Carcassonne is 35km away, while the Cathar village of Minerve is even closer. Our biggest local city is Narbonne, which was established as a regional capital by the Romans.
