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.
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.
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 :)
