Holiday 24
Posted Sep. 27, 2024 on HomeAwayHouse and pool were good. However we did have a couple of electrical problems and because lived 500k away it was a bit difficult to get hold of Jean. When we did they were resolved.

Such a beautiful place
Posted Jun. 27, 2023 on HomeAwayWe knew very little about the area when we booked but were attracted by the unique character of the property and proximity to Toulouse airport for convenient flights. It was much better than anticipated.
The location is remote and yet not very far at all from the autoroute and all the services of Castelnaudary. Set in completely unspoilt countryside, the birdsong all around the property and the amazing range of wildlife - all kinds of butterflies and songbirds, falcons, hare, deer - was a real delight.
The property is very well maintained and yet has a great air of history about it with lots of lovely furniture and plentiful kitchen equipment to cater for even large family gatherings. It really has the feel of a much-loved family retreat. The pool has full sunshine all day long but is totally secluded. There are a number of wooden decking terraces so you can choose your location for eating out or relaxing in full sun or shade throughout the day. There are lovely views to the local hill-top village of Mireval-Lauragais and the surrounding hills with the sweet sound of the church bells marking the passing time.
The historic wonder of Carcassonne is less than an hour away and the cross-country route takes you through some beautiful countryside with bean fields, sunflowers and vineyards with wine tasing available. There is a lovely bakery/tea room at the next village of Fendeille.
Our host, Jean, was very helpful.

A great stay in a beautiful area
Posted May 9, 2019 on HomeAwayThe house is absolutely charming!
Moreover it’s spacious and functional. We love the scenery, the amazing terrain. More than enough space to play football!
Kind welcome!
The bedrooms are ok. Only thing is that the beds in the kids room has very thin mattresses. For older kids, larger beds with thicker mattresses would be convenient.

A hidden gem!
Posted Jul. 4, 2018 on HomeAwayHad a wonderful two weeks here - house is incredibly well equipped, you will want for nothing whilst staying here! Our daughter in particular loved the unexpectedly large selection of toys and books.
The house is actually more spacious than you would expect from the pictures and it has clearly been renovated fairly recently to a high standard.
We loved the decking outside the house which was great for eating al fresco or enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets. The pool area is also excellent with plenty of chairs and even has a pingpong table. The grounds are so big you could probably hold a music festival in it! There was an unforeseen problem with the pool for a few days but this was fixed very promptly and professionally by the owner's father.

Geweldig
Posted Oct. 4, 2024 on HomeAwayPrachtig ruim en gezellig huis met een echt enorm perceel grond eromheen. Afgelegen maar toch dichtbij, 10 minuten met de auto, van winkels en restaurant.

Maison trés agréable
Posted Sep. 4, 2024 on HomeAwayNous avons passé un excellent séjour.
Le cadre est idyllique au calme pas de route à coté :)
Il y a dans la maison un véritable esprit "maison de famille", elle est trés bien équipée.
Nous avons pu faire plusieurs randonnées au départ du logement, Toulouse et Carcasonne à moins de 30 mn en voiture valent vraiment la visite !

Cadre idyllique et tranquille
Posted Jun. 30, 2024 on HomeAwayTrès belle maison, très bien aménagée avec un cadre idyllique. Piscine, pétanque et ping-pong sur place et des belles balades à vélo et pédestres dans cette belle région. Merci aux propriétaires pour des interventions rapides en cas de petits soucis.

Zalige en rustige omgeving
Posted Aug. 2, 2023 on HomeAwayAuthentiek vakantiehuis met groot terras en meer dan voldoende terrasmeubilair. Het zwembad was voldoende groot en goed onderhouden. Toegang via onverharde weg, ideale locatie voor wie op zoek is naar rust en kalmte, gelegen tussen de zonnebloemvelden.
Goede verbinding naar bakker (Fendeille) en supermarkten (Castelnaudary).

A slice of paradise
Posted May 28, 2023 on HomeAwayWe had the most relaxing stay in this beautiful place in beautiful surroundings.
Our dogs were so happy with the garden, the kids enjoyed the house, pool and garden. There is lots to do and see nearby like Carcassonne and Toulouse but also Bram is a nice little town.
Jean was very friendly and welcoming and gave us many helpful tips.
Thank you for having us, we will be back as soon as possible!
