Description
In Languedoc, very close to Carcassonne, Château La Villatade is a little corner of paradise with the allure of Tuscany that will delight your guests and create unforgettable memories forever! We offer you an idyllic setting, a complete privatization of the site with a reception room entirely renovated in a style combining authenticity and modernity and our accommodations to accommodate up to 28 people, in an idyllic setting. Château La Villatade offers you a unique natural setting on a magnificent preserved territory between the Montagne Noire and the Pyrenees; with its 130 hectares, its vines, its cypresses, its olive trees, its natural swimming pool, as well as its 17th century Languedoc residence framing a beautiful square courtyard. You can organize your wedding or reception in one or more of our many outdoor spaces such as the courtyard, the natural pond and the green spaces that surround it, the dry stone capitelle, the small wood, the terrace overlooking the vines, or even in the vines. Our reception room, a former barn completely renovated, with a surface area of 130 m2 and a capacity of 100 to 130 seats, will welcome your guests under its old beams and exposed stone walls for a memorable wedding. Outside Our beautiful courtyard is the ideal place to enjoy the mild spring or summer evenings. You can seat up to 150 guests in the 250 m2 of our interior courtyard, surrounded by the old stone walls; and depending on the case, the dance floor can also be set up outside under the porch adjoining the courtyard.

When we discovered La Villatade in 2016, we were instantly captivated, despite the amount of work and renovations that lay ahead. Since then, we have lovingly and energetically renovated this venue to welcome you in a warm and friendly atmosphere, within a preserved setting of incomparable charm. Hosting your wedding is a great honor, a great responsibility, and an immense joy!

FAQs

Quel a été le plus beau mariage?
We were fortunate to host some very beautiful weddings , each with its own color palette, but above all with a beautiful harmony , in a spiritual sense!
A beautiful wedding is one where the bride and groom, surrounded by their families and guests, experience a unique and timeless moment, a moment filled with emotion and the transmission of love ! And I can tell you, it's incredibly moving, and it shows on their radiant faces!
quelle a été ma plus belle récompense?
When a man sheds tears of happiness to thank me , and tells me "I never imagined I would experience such a marriage!"
Quels sont mes 2 premiers pour un couple qui commence l'organisation de leur mariage ?
The number one piece of advice is to choose your wedding venue, then your caterer quickly afterwards to have a choice.
My second piece of advice is to choose, as far as possible, service providers who are used to working together ; everything will run smoothly!
My experience has allowed me to observe this in both cases!
Comment vous décrivez-vous?
Very open, a good listener, I like contact, things done well; respect, tolerance and family are among my values.
Quel est le meilleur spot photo?
La Villatade offers a wealth of photo opportunities—perhaps too many, in fact! Every photographer who discovers our venue is amazed. Allow plenty of time for your photoshoot to capture the most beautiful day of your life!
Of course, photos in the vineyards are always beautiful, but with our pool and its natural blue/green colors, you can take extraordinary photos!
Avez vous déjà eu une célébrité dans votre lieu?
Femi, the Happiness Carrier , or Femi the Scorpion, has visited La Villatade several times. We organized the Happiness Festival together in 2025, which unfortunately had to be canceled due to bad weather. What a joy it was to share a moment with him; he truly lives up to his nickname, the Happiness Carrier. In his presence, people let loose, dance, sing, and are happy!

Etes-vous plutôt salée ou sucrée?
I love cooking and sharing dishes around large tables. But I'm always more drawn to cooking desserts than savory dishes.
My chocolate fondant cake paired with our Côtes Noires Réserve was a pure delight!
Is there a time limit for music?
You can party until the end of the night, the estate is far from any habitation.
