Mas de Rou in Castries, open April–August.
Guests arrive at Mas de Rou through tree-lined grounds that open onto a centuries-old Languedoc estate, where stone terraces and manicured gardens create natural gathering spaces.
The venue's intimate garden layout means your wedding party moves through distinct environments—ceremony under mature oaks, cocktails on sun-drenched terraces, dinner beneath string lights strung between period buildings.
Guests leave remembering both the architectural character of the property and the relaxed southern French countryside atmosphere.
Shame on you ! So disappointed, It's the 21st century, and some juvenile bans me, because he doesn't like my shoes. and at this point I see 10 people with almost the same shoes… I was with my friends, we pleased them because we spend 30 minutes to arrive there… rude, immature and So arrogant staff.. I recommend looking elsewhere than There…
