Château de Garrevaques
 
  Château de Garrevaques is a warm and welcoming family home, and as cheerful and inviting as these photographs indicate.  If a personal touch is what you desire, this unique residence offers that and more.  It proudly sits in its own 8-acre park surrounded by stately trees (including a 500-yar old oak tree) and vast lawns.  A swimming pool is the focal point of outdoor activity and is available for the enjoyment of château guests. 

Château de Garrevaques is occupied today by the fifteenth generation of the family who constructed it in 1460.  It survived extensive damage during the French Revolution, but was rebuilt late in that century to stand today as a beautifully decorated, tastefully restored example of the architecture of the period and the region. 

The château offers a five-bedroom apartment for rent by the week, weekend or by the night.  Each bedroom has its own private en suite bathroom, and the apartment also has a kitchen and a spacious sitting room for relaxation. Prices are shown below. 

In addition to 8 acres of grounds for strolling, there is a tennis court and a wonderful swimming pool for everyone to use!   You may be interested in a tour of  Airbus Industries in Toulouse, horseback riding nearby or antique shopping in Revel, among other day trips, which your hostess can arrange for you.  See below for more of the possible day trips guests of the château can enjoy.

The grand family traditions of Château de Garrevaques  -- combined with the beauty of the residence and gardens -- are made even more delightful by your cordial hosts who sincerely want you to find great pleasure and joy as guests on their estate.  A vacation spent at Château de Garrevaques will not only introduce you to this beautiful part of France, but it will remain part of your best memories of France for years to come.
