    Very big house, steps away from the entrance to LA cité de Carcassonne. Had anything one might need and more. Super clean too, highly recommended.

    Super house in a brilliant location, as close to the medieval city as you could be without actually being inside it. Hosts warm and welcoming; we had a fantastic weekend here.

    Superb Gite located on a vineyard next to the walls of Carcassonne.

    On arrival the handover of the property was not the best. Our host (a little English spoken) did explain the various workings of the Gite, but we later struggled with access to the WIFI (no phone signal in this area) so it was essential it worked. Sometime later we worked out how to do a reset which sorted this problem. Information on the property does state the host spoke English, this language barrier may have contributed to our issue. Suppose in the scale of things the problem was resolved and did not detract from a lovely stay in Carcassonne, in a superb property.

    The location of tis property is superb, its very near to the walled city just a short walk. The Gite is located on a working vineyard which did not impact in any way, in fact it was most interesting. One of the friendly workers directed us to a house (part of the vineyard) so we could purchase bottles of the wine it produced. We left very happy indeed. I would without any doubt recommend this Gite as a base to visit Carcassonne.

    Just a couple of minor areas that we missed but did not detract from our enjoyment. The BBQ outside was not so clean we might have liked to use this but there are plenty of restaurants around. The garden could do with a little attention and perhaps get rid of the trampoline but again we were able to sit out in the evening on the edge of the garden and talk to Simba who seemed to be quite fond of ham and cheese. 😁

    This typical rustic french gite suited our group very well with plenty of space for 8 adults from a social walking group. Sylvie was very welcoming and easily contactable with our ETA. Location was excellent being only 5 minutes from the medieval city with easy walking access to the French countryside and 5.5km from Lake Cavayere. The kitchen was complete with fridge freezer with ice maker, dishwasher built in cooking facilities and a utility room with washer/dryer. Plenty of coffee making facilities and the all important toaster for the morning. The lounge complete with TV, don't expect any English speaking channels, has free wifi available and comfortable seating for the majority of our group. You will need to have a fair grasp of the language as the owners are well er...French Speakers. Access is easy if you have a vehicle with plenty of parking space. In its own grounds and next to a vineyard and other farm facilities, and comes complete with its own little dog, Simba!

    The pillows. There were no pillows on the beds. Just a flat bolster and some cushions.

    The location was perfect and the owners were very helpful. We do not speak French so it was a little difficult. That is why we did not ask for pillows.

    The Gite is situated 5mins walk from the Medieval City. The kitchen facilities had everything you needed and the beds were very comfortable. The shower in the double bedroom was powerful and perfect temperature. The host ordered 2 taxi’s for us and when one was a little late was even prepared to take us themselves . All in all 5star service .

    There was air con but only downstairs in the kitchen. The bathroom needed a proper shower. The downstairs toilet was strangely situated off the lounge. There were one or two other small details, eg where to hang wet towels in the en-suite.

    The property was charming, set in a vineyard, and superbly situated for visiting the Citadel at Carcassonne. The people we met working at the vineyard were very friendly. The kitchen was spacious and very well appointed, and the laundry facilities were welcome. The lounge was also spacious and comfortable, as were the bedrooms.

    Good for number of bedrooms and living room comfort. There were 4 of us all adult sisters, however had we been there as couples another walk in shower would have been useful, but could be worked around with the shower over the bath

    Location excellent for access to the cite and also for bus connections to airport and easy walk into the main part of town and canal du midi

    Wasn't anything we didn't like.

    We loved this property in the shadow of the castle. Four comfortable beds/rooms. Shower in one bedroom, shared bathroom for other 3 bedroom, separate toilet downstairs wasn't a problem. The house is in a working farm, which wasn't a problem. Parking was great. Great kitchen. Short walk to the castle.

    As with any holiday accommodation, a sharp knife would have been handy :) Can't think of anything else!

    Perfect location only a few mins from the walled city. The property is very spacious and comfortable and was ideal for our group of 8. The outdoor area is great and it was really interesting to see the comings and goings of the vineyard trators. The electric BBQ/grill is really handy. The accommodation is quiet and set away from other properties, attached to a barn. The little farm dog (never found out his name) is absolutely adorable and visited each day.
