Gite and Chambre d’Hote
On the banks of the picturesque Canal du Midi
Location
Our Gite and Chambre d’Hote are almost uniquely located in a handsomely restored 18th century rustic farmhouse in a truly picturesque setting on the banks of the Canal du Midi. Situated on the ’Domaine de Millepetit’ a small vineyard and working farm, conveniently only a few kms from ‘La Cite’ and the town of Carcassonne. The farmhouse has been refurbished for the coming season, which of course means an upgrading of facilities, making us an even more attractive choice for your holiday anytime of the year. The farmhouse has been restored with 21st century comforts in mind, creating a welcoming home from home, whilst retaining much of its French country charm with stone features, wooden beams and rafters set in the most superb canal-side location.
We cater mostly to couples but can quite comfortably accommodate up to 4 adults plus 1 child and a baby having set up our new family room this season.
We are situated on a small working estate or farm, known as a ‘Domaine’ in France, overlooking the stunning Canal du Midi, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996. We’re only a few kms from the famous medieval ‘La Cite’, which in turn overlooks the bustling town of Carcassonne. The gite is part of a larger farmhouse, were we also offer Chambre d’Hote through out the year. The holiday cottage is adjoined to a working barn that in turn adjoined to the beautiful Chateau of the domaine with its historic 12th century tower.
We are in close proximity to both the sea and mountains so you can easily fully explore this unusual region of South West France… all year round, wether for cultural pursuits, the history of the Cathars, sightseeing, sunbathing or just to take pleasure in tastings at any of the many wine ‘Domaines’ of the region.
