About this property

Fabulous Villa With Use of Private Heated Pool South Of Carcassonne

Escape to this wonderful 2 bedroom villa, a perfect family getaway. Enjoy space and quality in this "home from home" environment. It is set in a secluded small hamlet of 6 houses which is in walking distance from Puivert down a leafy lane with spectacular views of a Cathar castle. There are two acres of gardens adjacent to the villa as well as ten acres of meadow and woodland great for nature lovers.
The pool area is surrounded by meadows and woodland making a perfect spot to relax in the sun listening to the bees and watching the butterflies and humming hawk moths. The saline 10 x 5 metre pool is great for swimming as it is much kinder to skin, the pool has steps for easy access, a ledge around the edge as well as a separate shallow children’s pool. The pool is only shared with us the owners so there is plenty of space for you to enjoy this wonderful space.
The kitchen is spacious and well equipped with a large fridge/freezer, cooker and double sink, everything for the budding gourmet. There are two lovely bedrooms; the main bedroom has a king-size bed with an ensuite bathroom that has both a bath and a separate shower. The second bedroom has twin beds and a shower room. Quality bed linen and towels are provided. The kitchen/dining room has a log burner and the living area has a flat screen TV, there is WIFI, DVD player, CD and IPOD player as well as a small library area with lots of books and DVD’s for your use. The dining area seats 4 very comfortably, in the summer season enjoy eating alfresco on the terrace directly outside the bifold doors of the living area. The terrace is partly covered so you can enjoy alfresco eating not matter what the weather.
We are sorry but due to the steps the property is not suitable for wheelchairs.

About the host

Hosted by Kim and Duncan Ward

Host profile image
We had been holidaying in France with our family over the last thirty years and it was always a dream to live here and provide the perfect retreat for other people to enjoy. We had been coming to the Aude/Ariege region for over ten years and when the opportunity came up to buy in this special place we just jumped at it. We believe we have the right experience to make it a truly memorable stay. Duncan loves to cook and can provide gourmet meals on request, his fish pie is sublime!

Why they chose this property

With the experience we had of renting various properties throughout France we just knew the exceptional quality of this villa would make it perfect for anybody wanting a successful holiday. We fell in love with this property and it's idyllic surroundings. We used to rent out our main house (home) and live in the villa for the summer but now we just rent out the villa, which makes it a real home from home.

What makes this property unique

The pool area is beautiful surrounded by meadows and woodland making a perfect spot to relax in the sun listening to the bees and watching the butterflies and humming hawk moths. The saline pool is great for swimming as it is much kinder to skin, the pool has steps for easy access, a ledge around the edge as well as a separate shallow children's pool.
