Hosts Marie-Pierre and and Phillipe were wonderful. We used this place a a base for a number of day trips in the region and they always had helpful ideas, advice and recommendations. The breakfast each morning was great, freshly squeezed orange juice, home made croissants, jam and sweet breads, and of course coffee. Our room was large, comfortable, with a great bed, overlooking the sensational terraced garden and the pool - what a great place to wake up every morning. We were a bit concerned with the heat of the day and no AC that the room might get hot & stuffy. But with good windows and shutters it was no problem at all...it was cool and great for sleeping. Overall it was a really great stay and we'd happily stay there again when we return to the south of France
The only challenging bit was the parking. Like most small French towns, the lanes and alleys aren't really built to accommodate a lot of vehicles. The good news is that there's a new parking lot being constructed just up the road - which will solve a lot of the parking struggles in the town.

We were visiting friends nearby and this was the perfect base. Very welcoming hosts, huge and beautiful room with a view to the lovely garden. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast was great - something different and extra every morning. If the weather had been better the garden would have been fantastic to spend time in - a little oasis in the village
no drawers for clothes only a wardrobe, would have preferred kettle in room for tea and coffee but both minor points

Nice old house with beautiful garden. Large room with windows to the garden hence very quiet. Breakfast was typical French (croissant, café) plus a bit such as self-made jam and brioche or cake. No problem to have lunch or dinner in the garden. A small selection of wines is available in the guests's fridge. Good location to explore the various places around. While there is no private parking on the premise there are plenty of options around.
There is a fountain in the garden and doves liked to pay it a visit at least twice a day. Nothing else really.

Very friendly hostess and a good sized room although it was on the top storey. Lots of stairs. Breakfast was excellent. Palmier Cache itself is good value for money but the location is difficult to access
Do visit La Somail. A gem of a village on the Canal Du Midi with five or six restaurants and best if all their famous bookshop.
Saint Marcel is a very drab town. We booked it for access to the Canal Du MIdi and Minerve and Nabonne There may be better options You will need a car and unfortunately the surrounding streets are narrow and parking is very difficult. Palmier Cache is located in a narrow lane. No parking nearby in the five days we were there. Avoid the host’s garage. We have the first damage to our car after 8 weeks and 4000km trying to exit it. Only one good restaurant in town

A lovely town house with very large clean and comfortable room. Great garden.
Ideal location to explore Narbonne and Carcassonne.
The breakfast was all homemade but poor for us because we don't eat yogurt and eggs,
it should have more bread and jam.

We were a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teenagers) plus our American exchange student. The 5 of us truly enjoyed our stay there. The owners were very friendly, tentative with our needs and always willing to help and provide information/recomendations for places to visit near by. The breakfast was very good and tasteful. The place is very beautiful especially the garden/patio (very cozy) . It was fantastic to have breakfast every day at the patio. The rooms are beautifully decorated, creating a very welcome atmosphere.
I cannot find anything.

O'Palmier Caché is a large, elegant town-house in the heart of the village.
Marie-Pierre and Philippe are excellent, helpful (but not intrusive) hosts. They are happy to advise on nearby attractions and have a vast selection of useful maps and leaflets.
The garden is beautiful and would be wonderful in the summer - we must return!
Thanks to M-P for her amazing breakfasts - ham, local cheese, homemade cakes, fruit salad, jams and superb homemade yoghourt.
Narbonne, Béziers and Carcassonne are within easy visiting distance. Don’t miss a visit to the stunningly beautiful Cathar village of Minerve. The Cathar castles of Peyrepertuse and Quéribus are amazing and worth the climb to the top for spectacular views of the mountains towards the Pyrenees.
