From the moment you arrive through the beautiful Andalusian courtyard, the property reveals its unique character. Antique doors, traditional azulejos, noble materials and carefully curated details create an atmosphere that is both elegant and relaxed. The generous 400 m² of living space allows up to 20 guests to enjoy both convivial gathering areas and private retreats.
The heated 12 x 5 metre saltwater swimming pool sits at the heart of the landscaped garden and is secured with both a gate and a protective cover, making it ideal for families with children. The outdoor spaces have been designed for long summer days and memorable evenings, featuring a gas barbecue, a plancha, a pétanque court, and multiple areas for dining and relaxing.
Families are particularly well catered for. Children will love the large dormitory playroom, complete with games, reading corners, oversized armchairs and plenty of space to play. Three baby cots, a high chair and a changing table are also available.
Villa Blanca is equally suited to professional events, team retreats, workshops, product launches, photo shoots and filming projects. Its proximity to Montpellier and its international airport makes arrivals effortless for guests travelling from France or abroad. The property offers parking for up to 20 vehicles within the grounds, while an additional public car park is located just three minutes away on foot.
The location strikes a perfect balance between accessibility and nature. Within a two-minute walk, guests will find tennis and padel courts, a BMX track, and direct access to beautiful hiking trails leading into the surrounding countryside. The historic centre of Castries, with its cafés, restaurants and local market, is only moments away.
Fully air-conditioned throughout and thoughtfully equipped, Villa Blanca is a destination in itself: a sophisticated yet welcoming home where large groups can gather, celebrate, work, create and relax in complete comfort.
A truly exceptional property for those seeking space, style and convenience just minutes from Montpellier.

Local area:
Villa Blanca sits in Castries, a village set between the vineyards of the Languedoc and the garrigue-covered hills of the Hérault, east of Montpellier. The Château de Castries, sometimes called the “little Versailles of Languedoc”, overlooks the village with its 17th-century gardens designed by Le Nôtre, fed by a monumental aqueduct built by Pierre-Paul Riquet, the engineer behind the Canal du Midi. To the north-west, the limestone peak of Pic Saint-Loup rises above AOC vineyards and hiking trails, while Sète, Nîmes, the Pont du Gard and the Camargue are all within an hour’s drive. A car is recommended to explore the surrounding area.
