“Excellent house in a great location, it’s the perfect French getaway.”

This house was an ideal location from which to base a two week holiday. It is located in a truly French village with little-or-no tourist trappings. It makes it easy to pick up the French habit of wandering out on each sun blessed morning to buy fresh bread and pastries.

The house is excellently equipped and is a cooks’ dream. The outdoor BBQ and pizza oven are fun and social, and close to the eating area. The kitchen has every gadget you could wish for.

We travelled as two families of four and found the house very spacious. My son loved the gecko-spotting in the evenings, my daughter lived in the pool, the teenagers appreciated the speedy wi-fi, and the adults appreciated the great wine store just two doors away. The bookshelves are well stocked with travel information and popular books.

The pool is cleaned daily and basks in sun for most of the day. I really appreciated beach towels being available with the house and not having to pack them or pay extra for the luxury. It’s a 10-15 min drive to the beach and there are lots of tourist trails that are within reach – Narbonne, Canal du Midi, Carcassonne, water parks, the Yellow Train (into the Pyrenees), and lots of fortresses and castles. We had a wonderful holiday and the peace and space of this house helped that.
