La Seigneurie de Peyrat, formerly of Metairie Montplaisir, was probably a "villa" in the Gallo-Roman era.
 And even if we can still see today a vaulted room - adjoining the winery and in which were once stored drums
- from the middle ages, the current buildings mostly date from the seventeenth century. The buildings rise in the hollow of a wooded valley
and are arranged around two courtyards. From the sixteenth century, Metairie Montplaisir was converted into a castle buildings in the courtyards were dominated
by four towers pierced with square mullioned windows.
The entrance gate of the court is topped with a high loft.
