Great location. Clean rustic property in a beautiful natural setting. A quiet hidden gem

A warm welcome from Armand, with the added touch of flowers & wine. The apartment was a little old fashioned but the view from the verandah towards the Cite was fabulous and certainly made the stay special. However do beware that you are likely to get bitten by mosquitoes. You cannot get to the canal, despite it being below the house, as it is too overgrown. You can walk into the city but its at least a kilometre from the house along rue Achille Rouquet to Rue Buffon and then downhill towards the station, however after a long day exploring the city it is a long slog back. We would recommend using the underground parking at Gambetta, safe, secure, clean & reasonably cheap. There is a number of hypermarkets close, by car and a boulangerie at the end of rue Achille Rouquet.

Nous avons choisi ce gîte en raison de sa belle position à Carcassonne, à seulement 10 minutes de la Cité, car nous sommes allés regarder le feu d'artifice du 14 juillet avec ma maman de 79 ans. Ce gîte était excellent, Armand est un super hôte et nous y retournerons avec des amis à l'avenir. Le balcon était génial, même par une chaleur de 39°C, car il y avait une brise bienvenue.

Sehr zufrieden.

We really enjoyed our stay in Carcassonne. We read all the reviews, some of which included the fact that a car was essential. We love to walk, which was just as well. Because of this, we didn’t miss being able to drive around the area.. We did hire bikes though, so we were still able to travel further afield. One of the main reasons we loved our trip, was Armand. What a lovely guy. He couldn’t do enough for us and for that reason we would love to return.

Carcassonne is een schitterende uitvalsbasis voor mooie excursies. Onze gastheer Armand kwam met prima ideeën

Nice view of the castle. A lot of space. The bed was comfortable, really need more pillow cases. We had trouble getting internet service. We had to lean outside the bannister. That is tough when relying on the internet for travel information etc. Some of the appliances were old and dysfunctional.
