Stay at the Château
Mas de Pradie Events venue
At Château Mas de Pradié we offer bespoke accommodation in both our B&B rooms in the Château itself and our two gites; The Stables and The Guardian’s Cottage.
In total we can accommodate 18 guests if you are booking the estate for a celebration or group holiday, alternatively the rooms are also available for a luxury boutique stay in the heart of the countryside in the south of France.
Equidistant from Toulouse, Montpellier and Bordeaux, meaning it is easily accessible by road and air, the Château is the perfect place to escape and reconnect with nature and an enjoyment of the simpler things in life.
THE STABLES GITE
Complete with underfloor heating and wood burner, this luxury open-plan gite sleeps 4-6 guests in style.
CHÂTEAU B&B
Stay in one of our bedrooms in the Château, enjoy your breakfast served in the dining room, terrace, or gardens.
GUARDIAN'S COTTAGE
This lovely cottage has been newly renovated but maintains its rustic charm. Sleeps 2-4 people.
OUR SERVICES
To make your stay even more memorable, we offer a range of services which are available in our beautiful accommodation.
The Swimming Pool
At the Château we are lucky enough to be able to fully take advantage of the gorgeous French sunshine with our new in-ground swimming pool. The pool is salt-water to leave minimal environmental impact and measures 10 m x 5 m, ideal for an invigorating morning swimming or a relaxing afternoon dip. Around the pool, you will find loungers and parasols dotted around, ready for you to unwind and take some time out just for you.
The swimming pool is available to all guests staying at the Château and can be incorporated into your celebrations for weddings and events. Enjoy a pool party and BBQ with your guests underneath the French sun, surrounded by nature and tranquil atmosphere.
Children are welcome during events but must be supervised at all times.
Breakfast
Breakfast at the Château is a special affair and, after a comfortable night in one of our rooms, enjoy a delicious homemade breakfast on the shady terrace, the leafy garden or, on cooler mornings, in our new refurbished dining room, should you prefer.
Whatever your day looks like, whether you will be relaxing by the pool with a good book or exploring the local area, begin the morning with fresh bread and pastries, local confitures, fruits, yoghurts and cereals as well as fresh juices, coffee and tea.
We can cater for your dietary requirements, but please do let us know at the time of booking.
Breakfast is available for just 12 € per guest each morning. Breakfast must be booked in advance.
Private Dining
At Château Mas de Pradié we offer a dining service each evening during your stay. If you wish to stay on the estate at your leisure in the evenings but don’t fancy cooking then we can offer delicious home cooked meals made with locally-sourced ingredients from nearby French producers.
Enjoy a delightful dinner in the candlelit dining room, out on the terrace as the sun sets behind the trees or amongst the greenery of the garden. For a romantic and intimate experience, couples are invited to dine in our own private chapel with its decorated ceiling of deep Royal blue dotted with golden stars.

Prices and menus for evening dining and other meals are available on request and must be booked in advance.
For larger groups, there are plenty of excellent catering options available from local suppliers which we can help to arrange on request.
The Gardens
The gardens at Château Mas de Pradié are very special places, offering an abundance of seclusion and natural wonder. They are naturally green throughout the year thanks to the system of caves and the seasonal lake which retreats underground in the summer months. It is often noted that the grounds of the estate have a unique microclimate which provides solace from the more intense heat of the summer months, which adds to the calm and tranquil atmosphere of this magical place.
Enjoy a peaceful stroll through our 12 acres of gardens with beautiful flowers, ancient trees and a wealth of wildlife to keep you company. Take a seat on one of the many benches nestled into peaceful spots around the grounds and soak up the calm.
We also have a large walled garden on the estate which features rows of trees and an entranceway parallel to the doors of the Château, creating a visually appealing symmetry, one which is often used as a centre-piece for ceremonies and events.
See ivy creep up the sides of the ancient stones, including our Pigeonnier and Owl House in the walled gardens, an enchanting, timeless place, and a truly romantic backdrop for wedding photography.
