Holiday Rentals in Marcolès

We stopped at Chateau de Cours on our way across France and we both wish we stayed longer. It is definitely an incredible place to stay at and our host Kristel was exceptional. It’s like a movie set - perfect. This stunning old farmhouse is set in the rolling hills among several cattle farms - all are incredibly well run and the neighbouring farmers were very friendly. The countryside is rural and rugged - beautiful! Currently, Kristel only rents out two rooms and they are huge and super clean. The whole house is beautiful and large and clean. The central staircase is made of stunning slabs of stone layered 4 stories high. We saw all the rooms and everything has been painted, updated, designed minimalist, and modernized. Our room was really three huge rooms - a sitting room with table couch and fireplace, a modern bedroom with a new (extremely comfortable) king bed, brand new bathroom very tastefully decorated. The windows are all brand new - no no drafts. We couldn’t even hear a noise outside if the windows were closed as the walls are 3 feet thick stone. You can eat inside or out, it was a bit wet when we were there so we ate in the kitchen which has a 10-foot farm table and 7 foot open fireplace as focal points. We went for a walk on the local farm roads in the morning and it we really felt like we were in France. When we came across another farm or farmer - everyone was smiling and just let us walk on by. We also sat outside to relax in the evening - the stars were incredible. Kristel has several seating areas set up outside so there’s privacy if other guests are there. There were no other guests present when we were there but I can imagine sitting around the kitchen eating at the huge table would be quite special. Finally, Kristel is an exceptional host. She managed every detail perfectly. We heard that meals were available so she made us a wonderful meal with a Moroccan twist - very nice. We both highly recommend Chateau de Cours.

It was a privilege to stay in such a beautifully kept old chateau. Our host made us very welcome. It was a joy to stay in such a large room/suite too. The WiFi was good, always a plus. Breakfast was taken in a beautiful dining room, and of good quality.

This is a beautiful place that has been built and furnished to a very high standard. The beds were very comfortable, everything you need is there inside!very clean and the hosts were very attentative and offered advice on the local area. We stayed as a stop over on the way to the south but wish we had stayed longer!

The access to the garden with spectacular view of the hills and the green fields with the cows grazing in the distance. The absolutely quietness and silence. The incredible friendliness of the locals and in particular the easy going attitude of our host.
