About this property

EXCEPTIONAL villa overlooking the Medieval City: heated pool, 2 jacuzzis

An exceptional villa, a unique location.

Just 200 meters from the ramparts, L'Écrin Cœur de Vignes offers what Carcassonne has that is most rare: a direct and unobstructed view of the UNESCO World Heritage Medieval City, from a fully private 2,500 m² estate, in a peaceful and verdant setting.

Five-star rated, the villa was designed for premium stays — families, groups of friends, family reunions — with a rare balance between space, privacy and prestige amenities.

— OUR SIGNATURE AMENITIES —
• Heated pool (11 m × 4 m, saltwater treatment) from early April to late October
• 2 jacuzzis for 6 people: one poolside, one facing the City — two settings, one villa
• 6 master suites with king-size beds (180 × 200 cm) and private en-suite bathroom
• South terrace with bioclimatic pergola (pool view) and north terrace for aperitifs (City view)
• 60 m² open-plan living area — simultaneous views of the City, pool, Pyrenees and vineyards
• Fully equipped kitchen with central island and premium appliances
• Electric vehicle charging station (11 kW), private parking for several cars (rare in Carcassonne)
• Air conditioning, fiber-optic Wi-Fi, 2 TV lounges with Canal+
• Pétanque court, ping-pong table, children's play area

— A STAY BEYOND THE ORDINARY —
You will be welcomed personally on arrival. We provide our own personal guide to the region: our best addresses, Michelin-starred restaurants, wine estates and must-see sites.

To go further, we give you access to a curated selection of private experiences organized directly at the villa or tailored to your wishes: gourmet dinner with a Michelin-starred chef, private chef for your stay, pastry workshop, pizza masterclass with a world champion, wine tasting on the estate, in-villa massages, private transfers — and many more experiences available on request.

Everything is included: beds made on arrival, bath towels and linen, end-of-stay cleaning. Daily or regular housekeeping available on request (supplement applies). Early check-in and late check-out available on request (supplement applies).

— LOCATION —
In the heart of Carcassonne, less than 10 minutes' walk from the City, restaurants, shops and transport links. Two UNESCO World Heritage sites within immediate reach: the Medieval City and the Canal du Midi. Day trips possible to the Cathar Castles, the Pyrenees, the Mediterranean coast, Toulouse or Andorra.

Carcassonne Stay

An absolute gem of a property. The house is in the midst of beautiful grapevines and countryside, so its an opportunity to totally relax in the most wonderful setting (and house), with restaurants and bars a 10 minute walk away. The house is fully stocked with the latest gadgets and the rooms are perfect. Our host Cedric, was so accommodating, helpful and friendly - we couldn't have asked for more. I would (and hopefully will) return in a hearbeat!

We stayed in this beautiful home with our two adult sons and their families including our two grandchildren aged four and two. It’s absolutely ideal for a multigenerational Holliday-there is a downstairs area with two bedrooms and a sitting room which my son and daughter know they’re too young children used With four ensuite bedrooms with air-conditioning upstairs-in fact there is air-conditioning throughout the property which is wonderful when it’s very hot. The pool is heated, which is ideal, especially for young children and there are two hot tubs which we made full use of. There is a children’s play area as well as two barbecues. There is masses of kitchen equipment which is great when you’re cooking for family groups. Thoroughly recommend this lovely home for a family holiday. Cedric was extremely helpful and contactable if we had any teething problems.

Fêtes de Noël superbes!

Tout était parfait! Nous étions 13 dont 2 enfants pour fêter Noël en famille. La maison et le site étaient super; on ne peut pas être plus près du château de Carcassonne! Très bon accueil; Cédric a toujours été à mon écoute durant les préparatifs qui peuvent être un peu stressants lorsqu'on doit tout organiser pour tout le monde. Maison très bien équipée. La cerise sur le gâteau: le beau temps nous a permis de profiter du jacuzzi! Tout le monde a été ravi du séjour.

Amazing villa with unbeatable views

We had an incredible week at the villa with a group of friends and our dog! We originally had a reservation already for early summer 2020 but we all know how that turned out. We were so happy that it finally happened in 2022 and we could continue our years-long tradition of spending a week at a villa somewhere in Europe. And what a villa it was! It knocked our previous ones right out of the park. Pretty much everything was perfect and the views are second to none. It will be a challenge to find a matching, let alone better place for next year! Or maybe we'll just stop looking and come back :)
