Château Margüi

Full Description

The estate features 18 beautifully appointed bedrooms across four buildings – the Bastide, the Moulin, the Bergerie, and the Observatory. Most rooms include a sitting area with a wood-burning fireplace, curated artwork, high-end entertainment systems, and an en-suite marble bathroom. Every bedroom showcases serene views over the forests and vineyards of Provence, with select suites offering private terraces for an elevated luxury villa experience.

At the heart of this luxury villa in Provence stands the Bastide, elevated above its stone staircase and surrounded by lush gardens. Its panoramic terraces are ideal for entertaining or enjoying al fresco meals overlooking the landscape of Provence. Fragrant kitchen gardens filled with thyme, rosemary, and seasonal produce supply ingredients for exquisite, chef-prepared dishes.

Guests enter the Bastide through wooden doors leading to a magnificent hallway complete with a grand piano. There is a cosy sitting room that connects to the estate chapel, as well as a charming library stocked with books from around the world. Meals are enjoyed in the elegant dining room, complemented by an informal breakfast room.

Nestled between the gardens and vineyards is the Magnanerie, the estate’s entertainment hub. Here, a state-of-the-art 20-seat cinema offers an extensive library of films, while a games room includes a TV, pool table, shuffleboard, card tables, and table football. The second floor is dedicated to business needs, featuring a modern meeting room with conference facilities and a large terrace – perfect for corporate guests staying at this Provence luxury villa.

Steeped in history, this Provence property traces its origins to the Roman era, when the fertile land and three natural springs made it an important site for producing wheat, oil, fruits, vegetables, and wine. Today, the estate embodies the essence of a Provencal luxury villa experience.

Spread across 120 hectares, this vast luxury villa estate in Provence offers endless space to unwind, disconnect, and savour the tranquillity of nature. Guests can embrace the beauty of Provence through landscaped gardens, expansive vineyards, and shaded forest paths lined with century-old trees and conifers.

A heated 25-metre lap pool, bordered by sun loungers and umbrellas, provides the perfect spot to soak up the Provence sunshine or relax with a book. For guests wishing to maintain their fitness routine, the pool house includes a fully-equipped gym, a spa treatment area, and a nail and hair salon. Nearby, a clubhouse features a yoga and spin studio alongside an outdoor tennis court, enhancing the luxury villa wellness experience in Provence.
