Perched on the quaint market square of Lagrasse—one of France’s most charming medieval villages—Vipp Townhouse is a 14th-century stone abode reborn. Originally built around 1350 and lovingly restored by Danish design house Vipp with architect Matthieu Paihes and Julie Cloos Mølsgaard, this three-tier townhouse artfully fuses medieval character with contemporary Danish restraint.

Upon entering, you’re greeted by a living area where pebble flooring seamlessly extends the historic cobblestones indoors. A sculptural staircase ascends to the kitchen and dining area: an aluminum island, round marble-topped table, and green-accented accents open onto a balcony overlooking the vibrant square. Upstairs, a bedroom and open-plan bathroom feature a freestanding shower clad in regional red marble and mirrored wardrobes evoking classic French interiors.

Throughout, stone walls, stainless steel, marble, and pale timber floors echo the harmony of old and new. Walls painted in the same warm white as nearby Lagrasse Abbey underscore the synergy with local heritage. Outside, the terrace invites wine-fueled lunches and sunsets, while downstairs, cafés, markets, and weekly produce stalls await.

Beyond aesthetics, the townhouse supports eco-friendly travel with four e-charging stations within 500 m. Ideal for couples or friends who love wine, cooking, and hiking through the vineyards and oak forests of the Corbières, Vipp Townhouse offers both serenity and access, whether biking to Carcassonne or kayaking the Orbieu.

At roughly $525+ per night, this historic-meets-modern retreat offers an immersive taste of French village life, with Danish finesse.
