The former sheep-farm of the Chateau de Lavagnac, built in the 18th century, has been extensively renovated during the last few years in a way that preserves its original character as far as possible. The main building and the outhouses are grouped around a spacious courtyard with shady trees. Located at the top of a gently sloping hill, the Bergerie offers a charming view of the foot-hills of the Cevennes mountains and the valley of the Herault river.
