We had a wonderful time here, with a fantastic host providing excellent communication and help. We were lucky to stay during the Carcassonne music festival and enjoyed 3 free concerts in the Carnot Square. The appartment is ideally located for a gre6 variety of good restaurants and the atmosphere of the square was excellent. The location was also ideal for walks along the river and to the Medievel walled city. The air conditioning was very useful, and the appartment was well equipped with everything we needed.

Great location, very well appointed

We stayed for two weeks and used this as a base to travel to a few other places as well as enjoying the village life of the Bastide. It is certainly a great place to just chill out and feel a bit French.

This is a listed building in a bastide overlooking Place Carnot, where locals meet, drink, chat, eat, sing - such a wonderful community vibe, and a joy to be part of. Can’t praise our host (Kaye) highly enough. She communicates, advises and provides everything you could want in what is sometimes a holiday home for herself. Feels like you are her guest in an authentically furnished apartment. It’s so beautiful. Only wish we’d had longer to take advantage of all the ‘to do’ suggestions she makes in the journal she provides.

Lovely apartment in superb location overlooking Place Carnot with several bars and restaurants. Couple of supermarkets close to hand . Within easy walking distance of train station , Canal du Midi, river Aude and Le Cite.Excellent communication with the host , who was happy to accommodate my request to change my original booked dates by a day after our airline decided to change our flights to totally inconvenient times . She also messsged during our stay hoping we were coping with the extreme temperatures…high 30’s most days !Very easy check in , apartment very clean and extremely well equipped with lots of basic supplies in kitchen. Aircon and fan in bedroom were a definite blessing in the heatwave!!

A charming apartment

A very pretty, French style apartment in the heart of Carcassonne Bastide overlooking the charming and bustling Place Carnot. Very well equipped kitchen, should you tire of the plentiful restaurants round about. We had a lovely stay. Lots to see and do in and around the city.

This apartment is a lovely base for exploring Carcassonne, with a very traditional French feel and beautiful features like the shutters. It felt more like staying in someone’s home than a standard holiday let, which we really enjoyed - the books, games, and personal touches made it feel welcoming and lived-in.The location overlooking Place Carnot is very central and convenient, with plenty of bars, cafés, and restaurants right on your doorstep. It does mean the square can be quite lively and noisy, especially in the evenings and early mornings (including cleaning and recycling activities), so light sleepers may want to bring earplugs.The apartment had everything we needed for our stay, and Kaye was very responsive and helpful before and during our visit.

French experience in French town

We were reluctant to leave after our two weeks there. The apartment had everything we needed and shopping was so conveniently close. If we wanted to travel further both bus and train options were close by, and there was lots to see if we preferred to stay within walking distance. The Cité Médiévale was stunning! We loved it all.

Absolutely lovely little apartment. Well equipped and traditional. Located in a central square which was very lively with free concerts as part of the Festival de Carcassonne.
