Nestled within the foothills of the French Pyrenees, Château de Gudanes is an extraordinary eighteenth-century residence whose history is as captivating as its architecture. Built upon the remains of a medieval fortress dating back to at least 1213, the present château was commissioned in 1741 by Louis-Gaspard de Sales, Marquis de Gudanes, and designed by celebrated architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel, whose work also includes the Petit Trianon at Versailles.
Its elegant neoclassical façade conceals richly decorated interiors, where grand staircases, ornamental plasterwork, painted ceilings and elaborate salons evoke the splendour of aristocratic France. Yet its past is far from entirely romantic. Pillaged during the French Revolution and again during the 1830 War of the Demoiselles, the château has witnessed centuries of conflict and upheaval.
Unsurprisingly, its abandoned corridors and concealed passages have inspired tales of ghosts and unexplained occurrences, although no paranormal activity has ever been verified. After decades of neglect, the château was acquired by an Australian couple in 2013, who began an extraordinary restoration, gradually uncovering its forgotten architectural treasures.
Today, Gudanes remains a remarkable meeting of history, architecture and mystery, where the atmosphere of another century seems to linger behind every door.

Sometimes in a big restoration project, it’s hard to remember where you started. Standing in the kitchen today it’s easy to forget how it once looked when we first saw it. I think before and afters are a good way of measuring progress and to reflect upon how many steps taken one by one can build what was broken. And so this is a journey down memory lane of the kitchen, which had fallen in three levels when we purchased the Chateau. Now it’s the heart of the home the Chateau cuisine 💕🇫🇷

Autumn is slowly giving way to winter here in the French Pyrenees. The mornings are cooler now, with mist settling over the landscape, low clouds covering the mountains and even Gudanes. The first signs of frost appearing are on the ground. Tiny icicles are beginning to form, while the sun still breaks through the clouds throughout the day. It’s a beautiful reminder of the changing seasons and the quiet rhythms of nature at Château de Gudanes 🇫🇷💕 it’s also been a busy bee cleaning, clearing and pruning shrubs, replacing the pool pump, repairing rain gutters, replacing my broken iPhone, planting tulips, trimming lavender, roses and rosemary, we did 2 bridal photoshoots and a CEO forum in-between and excitedly more overnight stays where we meet so many interesting and kind new faces. It’s a great thing to spring out of bed with enthusiasm, purpose and lots of great work ahead throughout the day. Feeling very grateful 🙏💕🇫🇷

A little morning light captured on my way to the Sunday market in the local village. The sunshine, the gentle rhythm of the French countryside, and the promise of a beautiful market day — baskets filled with seasonal produce , familiar faces, and the simple pleasures of life in France. There is something so timeless about a Sunday morning here 🇫🇷💕

As another beautiful summer at the château continues, our thoughts are wandering towards the next summer yet to come… 🌻☀️🏰
To long golden days beneath the Pyrénées sun, mornings spent wandering through French marchés and brocantes, baskets filled with flowers and produce, leisurely afternoons by the pool, and candlelit dinners lingering long into the evening.
And so, it is with great joy that we share the release of our Summer 2027 Château Ateliers, with reservations now officially open.
Next June and July, we invite you to step through the château doors and experience the French summer slowly - surrounded by centuries of history, breathtaking nature, beautiful food, old traditions, creativity and the simple pleasure of having nowhere else you need to be.
Our ateliers are intimate gatherings, created as an invitation to make the château your home for a little while. To learn alongside artisans and chefs, discover ancient villages, farmer’s markets and hidden corners of the Ariège, gather around candlelit tables, swim beneath the summer sky, and find quiet moments simply to read, rest and dream within these old walls.
Above all, they are a celebration of l’art de vivre - of making something beautiful with your hands, savouring what is in season, sharing a table with new friends, and rediscovering the increasingly rare luxury of time.
We so look forward to all that awaits us next summer - and to perhaps sharing a little of its magic with you ✨

There is something rather magical about the changing of the seasons at Château de Gudanes.
This year as summer gently gives way to autumn and the first whispers of winter arrive, the Château transforms into a place of quiet creativity, slow living and heartfelt gatherings. It is during these beautiful seasons that we invite you to join us for two very special experiences, thoughtfully created to celebrate the art of making by hand and the simple joy of living well.
The restoration of Gudanes has always been about far more than the preservation of stone and timber. It is the reawakening of a living home where old world traditions can once again be cherish, shared and celebrated.
🍂 The Autumn Atelier
A gentle retreat dedicated to craftsmanship, creativity and repose. Spend your days immersed in embroidery, calligraphy, traditional French cooking and centuries-old artisan skills, balanced with peaceful promenades through the Pyrenees, moments of meditation, seasonal meals and the quiet rhythm of château life.
✨ The Noël Atelier
As winter settles across the mountains, gather beneath candlelight for a handmade Christmas inspired by the traditions of centuries past. Create heirloom ornaments, festive candles, illuminated Christmas cards, traditional crackers and seasonal delicacies while sharing joyful evenings beside the fire.
These ateliers are about far more than learning a new skill.
They are an invitation to slow down. To create with your hands. To reconnect with tradition. To embrace the beauty of the changing seasons, the comfort of gathering around a table, and the simple pleasure of making something meaningful to carry home.
Bookings for both the Autumn Atelier and Noël Atelier are now open.
Visit the link in our bio for more details or www.chateaugudanes.com
We hope to welcome you home to Château de Gudanes for the season.
avec amour
The Château de Gudanes Family 🤍

With immense gratitude & joy, I’m honored to announce that going forward I will be the official photographer for the Chateau de Gudanes.
To have any small part in telling the story of this magnificent place is the honor of a lifetime. I deeply appreciate the trust that comes with this task and of preserving the wild spirit and timeless beauty of this chateau. First and foremost I would like to sincerely thank Karina, Jasmine, Heather, Stephanie and the entire chateau team, and thank you always to my dear friends Julia and Chezza who I met at my first visit there. That first visit and our endless talks helped me get on my feet again, and the memories here mean more than you can know. ❤️
To the grand moments, the quiet moments, and everything in between.
