Paraza – Chateau de Paraza (Canal du midi)
A special stay in a working French winery in the heart of the vineyards
Chateau de Paraza is an idyllic 17th-century castle set in a vineyard in Paraza – just 1km from the Canal du Midi 40km east of Carcassonne and 33km from Béziers. Now run as an upmarket, boutique B&B, Chateau de Paraza has a pool with views looking out to the Pyrenees. Breakfasts are made with fresh local produce and served in an ornate room whose walls are covered in original tapestries. Stay a night or longer to visit the winery or to get lost in the cavernous cellar. Chateau de Paraza is Accueil Velo-rated and used to welcoming cyclists.
