#Spacious farmhouse with large private pool in own grounds
We'd love to welcome you for a relaxing, away from it all holiday at Domaine de Favette. This secluded traditional farmhouse with its 10x5m private pool is nestled between vineyards and the river Aude. Relax on the sun-drenched south facing terraces with a locally produced chilled rose wine, enjoy a swim in the pool, pick fresh figs from our trees, and end the day with a barbecue on the tiled terraces or make the short journey to a selection of fabulous restaurants in Narbonne. For the more adventurous, you can fish in the river, or venture further afield to explore the Cathar Castles, while away a day by the Canal du Midi or visit the many wine producing chateaux to seek out your favourite wine. The house is ideal for exploring the Languedoc region, Cathar Country and visiting the Mediterranean beaches. Domaine de Favette is a spacious, restored 19th century farmhouse set in its own 4000m² grounds, combining many original features with every convenience to ensure your stay is really comfortable. Most rooms have original oak beams, and tiled floors. All rooms have wooden shutters, which can be left ajar during the day to keep the rooms cool in even the hottest weather.

Large, comfortably furnished open plan living room with original beams, tiled floor and wood burning stove, there are settees and a dining table, with internet TV and DVD/CD player. The fully equipped kitchen includes a range cooker, dishwasher and microwave, with washing machine, freezer and extra fridge in a separate utility room. The house is 2.5km north of Coursan, giving you peace and quiet, and within a short drive or bike ride of all local facilities.

About the host
Hosted by Philip Harlow
We live in North London, with our two grown up children - and they still love visiting Domaine de Favette!
Why they chose this property
We had a long search to find the right house for us - the main attraction was to be away from it all, as a complete contrast to living in London. We chose the Languedoc for its amazing weather, and knew from previous holidays that the region had a lot to offer in terms of history, places to visit, restaurants and of course, wine! The pace of life is relaxed - the locals still observe a proper break for lunch! The house itself met our needs perfectly - no neighbours to annoy, a real French feel to the house, with the features of a 140 year old farmhouse. It's a real home from home for us, and we only wish we could spend more time there!
What makes this property unique
It is incredibly peaceful - the occasional noise comes from the wine growers tending their vines from time to time. The pool and the terraces mean you can really relax. But it's still only a few minutes from Coursan with the usual small town facilities and a short drive from Narbonne which is one of our favourite small cities - a daily market and many restaurants make this a regular journey. In other small towns in the vicinity there is a great choice of local restaurants.
