We had a great stay.

This is a charming property and is well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Helene responded well to all our questions prior to our visit and the property was as described on the site. Negatives: It is an old house so the electrics did struggle a bit (mainly when the oven was on!) The water feature by the pool looks great but isn't very child friendly! Positives: Lots of space and the pool table is a great addition. We did have a couple of issues but Helene was very quick to rectify them and was always contactable. Having basic condiments available was very useful and a welcome surprise. It is a quiet location and property is charming! The kids really loved the pool and the pool house. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this lovely property. If we were in the area again we would definitely stay in this property again.

Lovely October week in the countryside

One week off with the family to explore region between Carcassone and Toulouse in October. The house is just 15min west of Carcassone and easy to reach. The pool and its pool house (with kitchen, shower, WC) is certainly great during hot summers but less useful in later October. Helene, the owner, was of great support when we arrived - no issues with communication. The house itself is divided into the part for rental and a second part which is used for storage. Rooms a large and charming with wood flooring, old furniture and an open fireplace in the living room. A large fenced garden surrounds the house and separates it from buildings which are situated at the backside. We enjoyed our week there.

Très bonnes vacances en famille

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour en famille dans cette belle propriété; chacun a pu y apprécier les divers espaces (piscine, billard, transat, jardin...). Un grand merci à notre hôte pour son investissement et le soin apporté à notre accueil, tout était très bien. Nous gardons en mémoire de très bons souvenirs de ce séjour et le charme des lieux. Nous ne manquerons pas de retenir cette adresse en cas de nouvelles vacances dans le département.

Le Castillou

We hebben een zeer fijn verblijf gehad in Le Castillou. Het is een charmante karaktervolle woning met 4 ruime mooie slaapkamers. De eigenares is een vriendelijke en heel behulpzame dame. Er is een grote tuin, een ruim zwembad en badhuis. In de woning staat er ook een pooltafel wat ook voor extra plezier zorgt tijdens het verblijf. Een pluspunt is ook dat Carcassonne zeer dichtbij is. Kortom, Le Castillou is zeker een aanrader.
