We had a wonderful stay. We were 5 adults and the house set up worked well for us. The location is hard to beat, just at the foot of the old city. Lovely garden with plenty of sun through the day and not too much noise from outside. We were lucky that our stay coincided with the Bastille day fireworks which we had great views of!

Our arrival was a total shambles as info provided regarding location of key was out of date and we experienced the worst storm with thunder and lightening and nowhere to shelter. We were all soaked to the skin and much of our clothes in our luggage were too!! The House Manager lives in an area with poor phone signal and therefore you need to be able to connect to WhatsApp to contact her - until you can access the house wifi codes. However after such a terrible start the house and it’s large private courtyard garden, immaculately kept - proved to be an ideal base to explore the town of Carcassonne and just a short walk to the Aude or the Narbonne gates to the medieval Cite. Just a short walk from the house are two small shops for your daily bread and croissants. Spent some time relaxing round the pool and playing Scrabble into the evening. Lovely place to recharge and make special memories with family.
