Maison Chérie is an artisanal, boho-chic farmhouse that offers its guests the chance to recharge in this little corner of paradise. With spectacular views of the Pyrenees, open fires, a spacious farmhouse kitchen, and a property filled with handmade furniture and artwork, Maison Chérie is perfect for those seeking a relaxing, rustic getaway surrounded by forests and fields. From May to October, you have exclusive use of the outdoor swimming pool (unheated).
It has 6 bedrooms with a total of 12 beds and 3 bathrooms, accommodating 12–15 people. The property is part of a working farm that is home to an international, intergenerational co-living project. Maison Chérie is, however, designed to ensure our guests have the privacy and peace they need.
Our estate offers unique stays featuring our table d’hôtes with a chef at your disposal, garden-fresh meals, open-fire cooking, and culinary workshops—all for a stay full of discoveries and memorable shared moments.
The nearest supermarket is in Limoux, a charming market town about 15 minutes away by car. There is plenty to explore in the area, including the historic city of Carcassonne, the Abbaye de St. Hilaire, and many buildings from the Cathar dynasty. For outdoor swimming, Lac de Montbel is a short drive away, and stunning sandy beaches at Gruissan and Narbonne are just over an hour away by car.
From the property itself, there are many public walking and biking trails, making it an ideal location for outdoor activities. Please note that we are unfortunately unable to accommodate pets.
We look forward to welcoming you and helping you make the most of your stay with us at Mongrenier!
