Loved the property and wonderful swimming pool. Weather was very hot and the children spent a lot of time in the pool. We hadn’t been to this part of France before and really liked the location of the property as there were plenty of things to do nearby. Hosts (Jean-Luc and Veronique) were fabulous and although living in the adjoining property they were very discrete. We would certainly consider visiting again!!

Very warm welcoming reception from hosts Jean-luc and Veronique.Beautiful and spotlessly clean house. Very well maintained garden and outdoor space. Pool was really good size although relatively deep even at shallow end. The only air conditioning is mobile fans for the bedrooms only this was a struggle for the second week as temperatures were in the 30s it made sleeping very difficult. I think you can pay extra for an air conditioning upgrade. Jean luc and Veronique live next door but are very unintrusive yet available if needed this was not a problem for us at all. The village itself is quaint and quiet. On a Sunday night there is a van selling burgers you need to pre order or arrive at 6.30pm to secure. On Wednesday night there is a pizza van again pre ordering is recommended. The bistro in the village Bistro de la placette was delicious it probably served us the best meal of the holiday the menu changes weekly.The hosts were on hand to recommend restaurants/ days out. We visited Olonzac market, Narbonne, Béziers, Carcassonne and Gruissan and other smaller villages hiring a car is a must. The nearest village is Le Somail where there are a few more restaurants. It is walkable from the village via a short cut.( approximately 25 mins) worth a visit. As a family we hired bikes and cycled Le canal du midi to Homps again worth a visit due to the lake and access to water sports. Overall we had a very relaxing holiday with a good mix of sightseeing and days outside at the pool

A wonderful house, in a superb location, very comfortable, lovely cool living area to relax during the heat of the day, our children so enjoyed the pool and many pool toys, plenty of space to relax, and three areas for dining. Rooms were excellent, comfortable beds, just to note the Aircon, if required, is portable units you set up yourself through windows, but work well, fans available in each bedroom also. Location was in small village, with a shop that sells fresh bread, two restaurants plus a food truck (on certain days) all within easy 5min walk, plenty of other restaurants within short drive, and lots of places to visit, recommend Minerve - medieval village. We also experienced July 14th fireworks from clock tower in Capestang upon suggestion from Jean Luc and Veronique, who helped and answered questions when needed, but left us alone rest of the time. Worth reading through their restaurant and market recommendations too. We drove to Gorge du Brian, very neat Minerve and walked to the river for swim - highly recommended with older children, not that well signposted when your close to it, but trust google maps, enough water to swim in July.! and v refreshing after the 20min hike in heat.

Just returned from a wonderful week spent in the Aude region of the Languedoc . Le Fitou is a traditional French gite with a large pool, sun beds and well kept garden situated in a small village location near to the Canal Midi and the beautiful historic towns of Narbonne and Carcassonne. It is well equipped with spacious bedrooms and modern bathrooms. One of my memories will be waking up with the sunshine gleaming ,overlooking the garden and pool and listening to the church bells ringing. Roger and Jane ( plus lovely Lupin the small friendly dog) are fantastic friendly hosts; they have researched the local area well and subsequently know the best places to visit including restaurants, beaches and historic villages. We have stayed in many gites and villas during the last 10 years in France and the welcome pack was the best ever, thank you. My family and I look forward to returning in the future.
