excellent property and host *****
from the moment we booked this property the owner (Solenne) was extremely helpful, she let me know all information regarding the property that I asked about as well as advising us of local attractions etc before we even arrived, she allowed us to check in early and depart later than arranged. property was very clean and had everything as advertised, was a great trip with 24 members of our family from 2yrs old through to adults. would recommend this property to any large groups wanting to get away for a week or two and stay in your own little bubble away from the outside world. would stay again and can't thank Solenne enough for all her help throughout - 5 stars *****

Great house in a great location
House is located outside a small village, has a great swimming pool and very spacious. The kitchen has 3 fridges (which you will need) and the outside sitting is just great. Communication with the house owners was easy via Email or WhatsApp and the owner met us at the property a few times to help us with maps and things to do around the area. Overall, highly recommended. Only downside we had is it was VERY hot, and the house does not have an AC. but I believe this is the case with many houses in France, and we did hit a record high week, so I wouldn't be too worried about it.

Fantastic stay at Chateau de Donos
We were a big family group of 25 people, which is max capacity at Chateau de Donos. Solenne was most helpful with the booking process - we had to modify the number of people during the process which worked very well thanks to clear communication from her side. The owner of the Chateau, Alain chardigny, was a great acquaintance - very welcoming, and he told and showed us so many things about the place and the Corbières area, incl great sightseeing recommendstions. The distribution of the rooms worked well for our big group - enough bathrooms, hot and cold water well functioning. The outdoor dining area with a long table and gas grill next to it worked very well for all our homecooked dinners. This year the owner had added one more fridge which is necessary to store food for big groups. In general the kitchen spacious and well equipped - only needed more wine glasses to match silverware and plates for 25 people. They swimming pool is kept very clean - Robert, the caretaker, cleaned filters every morning. Parking space also worked out great - you can fit 4-5 cars In the garage, plus additional cars In the private drive way. Overall, we were very pleased with our stay, and hope to visit again - merci beaucoup Alain and Solenne!

Wonderful place
We enjoyed a week in July in the estate and was very pleased with the house and surroundings. We were five families with our grown up kids (15-20 years old - 20 person all in all) and had plenty of rooms and space. The host lived in the next door mansion and was kind, accommodating and easy going. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and the kitchen was well equipped - but the fridges (2 pcs) could only hold 1 days of food/cold drinks and the nearest supermarket was a bit away. The pool was kept clean every day. A perfect place for total relaxation. /Chris from Denmark

Belle bastide avec de grandes chambres au calme
La bastide est loin de tout village de sorte qu’elle est au calme et du coup un peu loin des commerces. Les chambres sont belles , les murs épais se qui assure une bonne isolation thermique et phonique. La piscine est très spacieuse. La cuisine très fonctionnelle est bien équipée. Nous y avons passé à 17, 5 couples et 7 célibataires d’excellentes vacances. Compter 1/2h pour rejoindre Narbonne ou les plages. Bel endroit à découvrir

Bastide de charme, séjour exceptionnel
Nous avons réuni tous nos enfants et petits enfants et formions un groupe de 23 personnes dont les âges s’échelonnaient entre 80 et 10 ans. Nous avons passé un séjour exceptionnel. La bastide est magnifique et remplie de charme. Chaque chambre (12) avait sa propre salle de bain/ d’eau avec WC . La literie est confortable , la maison est tellement grande que chacun avait son espace. Les extérieurs sont très agréables également , notamment la tonnelle qui engageait à la lecture. Le propriétaire est charmant et à partagé avec nous l’histoire des châteaux et du domaine. Nous nous y sommes tellement plu que nous y reviendrons très certainement.

Séjour entre amis pour des 30 ans : belle‘ mais quelques points négatifs!
Nous avons loué cette bastide à 20 amis pour fêter des 30 ans en espérant trouver grâce au 350ha promis un espace de liberté sans voisinage… - La bastide est à côté de la demeure du propriétaire présent toute la durée de notre séjour, - Gardien peu aimable et intrusif - Des horaires sont mis sur la piscine et la lumière et l’électricité y sont intentionnellement coupés pour que nous n’y ayons pas accès le soir - La piscine est trop chlorée - C’est une belle bastide avec le charme de l’ancien, 12 grandes chambres spacieuses avec sdb dans chacune, qui nécessiteraient un petit coup de rafraîchissement - La cuisine est vétuste, n’est pas pratique pour 20, notamment pour le plan de travail et la taille des frigos, - Les espaces extérieurs ne sont pas adaptés à 20 personnes, tables trop petites, délabrées et chaises bancales et dépareillées, pas assez de transats, certains étant en mauvais état, pas de salon de jardin extérieur - En résumé du potentiel mais grosse déception sur l’accueil et les prestations par rapport au prix payé

Bastide idéale pour famille ou groupe d’amis
Très belle maison avec des chambres spacieuses, bien décorées et des sanitaires en nombre et bien équipés. La piscine est de bonne dimension avec un peu d’ombre. C’est une vraie maison de famille qui nous a permis de regrouper nos 4 générations. Nous avons découvert la région dont les paysages rappellent la toscane et dont le patrimoine culturel est très intéressant .

séjour merveilleux
Le site est enchanteur, la maison est fonctionnelle et ameublée avec beaucoup de goût, la piscine superbe avec un coin d'ombre, la cuisine bien equipée, seuls le grill à gaz et le lave- vaisselle un peu faibles pour 25 personnes, le contact avec le propriétaire , son amabilité, ses explications et commentaires sur le site et son histoire ont contribué au charme de ce séjour.
