Reviews of Ecuries Sainte Croix

The breakfast was excellent and the location perfect.

There wasn’t anything that didn’t like.

Relaxed,friendly,helpful host.Nice ambience

Geneviève is a great host. She was most helpful and courteous. Her dogs and cats are beautiful. A very relaxed location. The walk into the medieval city was a great pleasure. The king size bed was very comfortable. A substantial breakfast was provided.

Nothing

Quiet and pleasanr surroundings. Close to Carcassonnes.

We loved the little apartment out in the countryside and we really enjoyed our 35 min walk along a very minor road into the old city leaving the car behind. ( It seemed further on the way back though, up hill!) we also loved the little terrace with table and chairs and the view across the countryside towards the Pyrenees. The bed was comfortable. . There was a good, hot large shower.

The kitchen equipment was very sparse and there was a tiny kitchen area. You wouldn't want to do a lot of cooking there! However all basic equipment was there...mugs and plenty of plates.

Nice rural setting, walk to castle doable if able to do 2k

Nothing

Such a welcome break after days on the road and staying in hotels! The one-lane road to the property is extremely scenic, with vineyards and a view of La Cite. It's a 2-km walk, if you're feeling energetic. The owner is very welcoming and gives good recommendations for excellent Carcassonne-owned restaurants. Breakfast in the main house is copious: fruit, yogurt, croissants, crusty baguette, juice, eggs if you want, coffee with warm milk (tho coffee was bitter on our second morning). Socket next to the bed. Heater in the bathroom to warm your towels!

We like firm mattresses, but this was more than what we're used to. There were only two pillows - one was soft and had no support, the other was too firm! The curtain in the Celadon unit barely covered the window.

Beautiful rural setting in vineyards with horses , lovely antique furniture, very cosy apartment with all facilities. Shower is excellent and bed comfortable. Beautifully converted buildings . Would like to return next year . Genevieve could not do enough for us and loved her husband's paintings on the walls . Use Waze app to find it

Can't say there was anything

The gîte was about a mile from the castle and was very calm with a great view of the Pyrénées. All the facilities were good with a spacious bathroom and living/bedroom.

It would have been difficult to improve anything.

The warm friendly atmosphere of this delightful old French gite was exceptional.

Another excellent experience provided by Genevieve who is the perfect host

WIFI signal in the apartment could have been better

Breakfast was not part of the booking. A simple kitchen meant we could self- cater when we wanted. Bed was comfortable. Heating was adequate. View from the kitchen window over nearby vines and the wide valley and the Pyrenees was amazing. The accomodation was part of an old farm house which had been renovated to suit a bed sitting room .Restored furniture and interesting prints made it attractive.

While close to Carcassone fort - it was almost hidden away. Narrow winding roads - sometimes tracks to get there . We were unsure if we were on the right track. Once there, it was fine.Nice terrace to watch the sun go down. Parking onsite was a bonus. We did not meet the owner until we left - tho she was very friendly.

We wanted a semi rural experience, far out enough for us to feel out of the way but close enough to the city that it was walkable, we also wanted something traditionally French, we certainly got both of those things, it was perfect! This was our third time in France and our best yet, the room was really large and traditionally decorated, really classy and cosy, big comfy bed, lovely cats and dogs and beautifull scenic location, it takes about 30 minuets (slow walk) through the vineyard and stunning countryside to get to Carcassonne Medieval city which is perfect if your like to walk to and from town. Geneviève the host was amazing, extremely friendly and helpful, she knows how to run accommodation. She always makes an amazing breakfast. We loved her! We highly recommend this. A+++++

We liked everything, could not have asked for more.

Great location on a farm close to town.
