DOMAINE de Verchant , a chic, boutique 16th century stone château in the Languedoc Roussillon, has recently introduced a world-class spa. Set among 17 hectares of vines in the capital, Montpellier, the Verchant Spa leads directly onto the vineyards and La Plage, which offers outdoor casual dining, a cool summertime DJ vibe and a stunning 21 metre pool.

This state-of-the-art Spa offers Anne Semonin and Valmont treatments across eight rooms plus heated indoor pool, hydrotherapy circuit, Jacuzzi, sauna, hammam, experience showers, and a 400 square metre ‘super’ gym.

We particularly like the sound of The Grand Cru – a ritual around the vine, which includes exfoliation with grapeseed and marine salts from the Domaine, a red grape wrap and luxurious massage.

A five night dream break at this Relais & Chateaux property with 10 inclusive treatments and unlimited access to the spa costs from €1640 per person

Domaine de Verchant, 1 Boulevard Philippe Lamour, 34170, Castelnau Les Lez, France. 26 rooms. Open all year round and just 15 minutes from Montpelier Airport and the Mediterranean.
