Beautiful holiday home, ideally located 5 km from Carcassonne, splendid historical city whose medieval Citadel is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Enjoy a large private swimming pool overlooking the elegant surrounding countryside with pine woods and vineyards. The rooms are bright and spacious, furnished with care and refinement. From the terrace by the pool, there is a graceful view over the valley to the Aude hills beyond. It is a delightful spot to enjoy warmth and peaceful surroundings. Two kilometres up the road is Lake Cavayere with its beaches, boats and water park. There is also a large forest adventure course for those great views (and rides) across the water. The Canal du Midi, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is only 5 km away and you can explore gorgeous scenery on a boat trip or a bike ride on the shaded banks. The famous Festival of the City of Carcassonne is held throughout July with the opportunity to go to concerts in the outdoor amphitheatre and the evening of July 14, National Bastille Day, you must not miss the fabulous fireworks and "burning" of the ramparts of the Citadel. Lovers of good wines can enjoy the closeby vineyards of Corbieres, Minervois and several other local wine appellations. For golfers, the superb Carcassonne Golf Club is less than ten minutes away. The region benefits from a large network of hiking trails on the plane, on the banks of rivers and in the massif of Corbieres. This charming holiday home is a haven of peace when returning from your various escapades in the superb region of Aude.
