Built in a hill-top village, a refuge for lovers of ancient stones…In the early 17th century, the Chateau de Moissac-Bellevue was a residence dedicated to relaxation, owned by a noble family from Provence, France. Sobre, patrimonial, remarkable, with its monumental entrance, vast drawing-rooms and dining-rooms opening out to the gardens, its imposing kitchen, its bedrooms and bathrooms extending upwards to the attics, the building was rewarded for its exemplary restoration in June 2008 by the “Prix des Vieilles Maisons Françaises” sponsored by Emile Garcin.
