Lou Casteou is a beautiful chateau gloriously elevated in mountain landscape, minutes from the pristine sandy beaches and turquoise waters of the Cote d’Azur. As well as private events the property has hosted a number of prestigious corporate leadership summits and conferences. The quintessentially chic French residence combines elegant architectural features and modern indulgences. Antiques mix with contemporary themes inside whilst a romantic courtyard, with surrounding cloisters, offers an atmospheric and inspiring outdoor space. Beautifully situated amongst olive and pine parasol trees, the lovely gardens and large, new, heated swimming pool complete the Mediterranean picture.
Details
The chateau is perfect for entertaining with five charming and spacious reception rooms. There are three traditionally styled rooms with chandeliers, oak floors and original fireplaces, ideal for dinners of up to 135, meetings and seminars. These rooms open onto the terrace and south facing pool gardens. There is also a Grand salon, an elegant and spacious room with marble floor and marble fireplace plus the Petit salon, a cosy and more relaxed sitting room with TV and doors to the cloisters. The rooms are complemented by a state of the art cinema and games room with billiard table and private garden area, which suit either home entertainment or corporate presentations.
