    We didn’t use the lift (I assume that it worked), but anyone with mobility issues may struggle with the spiral staircase up to the 3rd floor. Great to have aircon but this only covered the living room & kitchen so fans in the bedrooms would be nice as they were very warm on hot days.

    Sizeable property with everything that you need for a relaxing stay. Only 15min walk from the medieval city (the reason we visited Carcassonne) and plenty of shops & restaurants on your doorstep.

    The bedrooms are large and bright, but the living room has only borrowed light from the 'patio' which is a light-filled but completely covered space with plastic chairs and plastic plants. There was no local information available in the flat - but lots online and from the tourist office just round the corner.

    Great location, on a pedestrianised street close to the main square, restaurants, bars, shops plus the Canal du Midi and River Aude for walks. The ancient city is also an easy walk away. 10mins walk to the station for trains towards Toulouse one way and Narbonne the other. Station staff were helpful and patient with my poor French. 3mins from the airport bus stops, the Museum des Beaux Arts and the fabulous patisserie and chocolatier Bimas. The flat has everything you need, the beds were extremely comfortable and the shower was powerful with plenty of hot water. The Bastide owners responded to queries within 24-hours through the Booking.com website, but we couldn't find a way to contact them directly.

    La Bastide is characterful building in a fabulous location just a couple of minutes from the buzz of the main square . The 2 bedroom air conditioned apartment was very spacious and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen. Great water pressure in the bathroom .

    Only 2 things - Friday and Saturday night it was noisy on the street till 4am; not the fault of the property but would have been nice to know that the environment could be noisy; the other thing was the patio; well it wasn’t a patio; it was a room with a frosted glass roof - I was expecting something outside so was disappointing and not as advertised

    Comfortable bed, quiet a very nice place to stay

    Just Beautiful!

    We were so lucky to be able to book this accommodation. This actually was the perfect location in Carcassonne! The apartment was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated throughout. I loved that the original features of the building had been preserved and kept so well, adding to the character. Both Charlotte and her mum were excellent hosts, so welcoming and helpful. Charlotte's mum actually helped us on the first day as she happened to bump into us trying to get into a different apartment by accident! We found out - and read about the family history of the building, just beautiful! Please bear in mind that this accommodation is right in the centre of the city - naturally, there may be some street noise, especially around festival time. This is totally normal and something that you would expect in any city if you want to be in the heart of the action. Just plan ahead and bring earplugs if you're generally affected by such things. I was actually only disturbed one night by the festivities, which I think is fine as it was the biggest festival night of the season. We preferred being this side of the city to the medieval side, and everywhere is easily accessible. Some days we walked just around the corner to the square for breakfast and some days we walked a very short distance to an excellent boulangerie and ate breakfast at the apartment. I can't express enough how wonderful the location is. The kitchen is cute, clean, and well stocked with necessary appliances. We loved the bathroom with the 'his n hers' sinks! The shower is superb! The artwork throughout provides elegance and reflects the owners great taste and style. The lift is a great addition, especially after a long day walking. If you're getting the shuttle bus in from the airport, then the nearest stop to get off at is the 'Dome'. The airport bus only has a couple of stops and we found it a quick and easy walk from this stop.

    Beautiful apartment and incredibly spacious too! It is in a fabulous central location too, so it's in easy reach from the railway station and very handy for shops, restaurants - and not far to walk to the old town. Laundry facilities were very handy to use on our travels and the covered terrace was perfect for a chill out and to hang the washing on our travel washing line!

    The only issue was that some of the electric sockets are coming out of the walls and some of the light bulbs in the bathroom aren't working.

    Very convenient for facilities eg shops and restaurants in Carcassonne and not too far from the railway station. Plenty of space in the appartment. It had everything we needed.

    We coukd not stay longer because there was another booking right behing ours.

    This is one fabulous place to stay in the heart of the town. Very quiet get in a busy area and a stone's throw from a square with heaps food restaurants. The apartment was spacious, a well equipped kitchen, two massive bedrooms with very comfortable beds and a great bathroom, and laundry with seperate washing machine and dryer. The owner was extremely responsive to ore communications. We were able to store two bicycles at the end of the hall on the ground floor and the lift was a really welcome surprise. The covered out door area off the kitchen was splendid.
