The property was well presented, as described. Plenty of equipment for cooling and catering. The house was very private, comfortable, secluded and peaceful. Just what we hoped for. 10-15 mins drive to Olonzac where we could get everything we needed; local people friendly, helpful and kind. Would have non hesitation returning - one day, hopefully.
Lovely house - maybe not the best location in a heat wave
The house was very well furnished, with plenty of space for our family. The bedrooms were very comfortable. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. The shuttered windows helped to keep the house cool. Access to the garage was good too, as it kept the car cool. Overall the heat was a problem: because it was so hot and dry, we had a problem with large numbers of wasps coming to the pool to drink , and we weren’t able to get rid of them even though the communication with the Dutch management company was good, and even though the pool guy came and offered sympathy. The area is beautiful, and I would like to visit again but maybe in May or September. The house was very clean. Olonzac was only a 13 minute drive away and it has an excellent Tuesday market and Boulangerie. Walking around the gorges at Minerve is beautiful.

Fantastische Villa mit sehr viel Umschwung
Fantastische Villa mit sehr viel Umschwung. Wir fühlten uns vom ersten Tag an wie zuhause.
Ein sehr schönes und ruhig gelegenes Haus mit tollem Pool und super ausgestattet.
45 Minuten bis Carcassonne, Narbonne oder Beziers. Wenige Minuten nach Minerve. Die Sommerküche und die vielen Sitzgelegenheiten auf dem Grundstück sind perfekt.
