Domaine de Ribaute, a castle estate near the charming city of Béziers in southern France, has been completely renovated and transformed into a unique place for a special vacation. The friendly French owners live in the castle, whereas in the middle of the estate grounds the detached holiday villa is situated in a private position. The adjacent old townhouses on the domain are now magnificent holiday homes for two to eight people. The beautifully landscaped and well-maintained garden with a large variety of plants, flowers, and even palm trees continues gradually into an eight-hectare park.
