Aude Holiday Gite with Pool and garden in Languedoc, Nr Canal du Midi, France - Le Fitou Reviews

Superb property in a lovely Languedoc village (Copy of review from Home Away)
Great Gite and a fantastic swimming pool. Roger and Jane were the perfect hosts and we particularly appreciated the very generous welcome pack they provided. All the basic amenities (washing materials, toilet paper etc) were also in plentiful supply and we wished all other Home Away properties would do the same! The village is lovely and very welcoming with two good restaurants within walking distance and many others within a short drive. No hesitation in recommending this Gite and just follow Roger and Janes suggested itineraries, you wont go far wrong! Thanks again for a great stay. The Plants!

Wow! This was one special holiday! (Copy of review on Trip Advisor)
The Winemaker's House was everything we hoped it would be.In an ideal location for exploring the area, it was immaculately presented, whilst offering lots of character and original French features.The owners, Roger and Jane, were extremely helpful, providing us with food on arrival, and giving us lots of very useful information about places to visit, and restaurants in the area. The garden area was well stocked with beautiful plants, and flowers in profusion. An excellent swimming pool was extremely welcome, at the end of a busy day, exploring the area. All in all, we would thoroughly recommend Le Fitou; indeed, we have already booked for next year.

A lovely Gite in a great area (Copy of review on Home Away)
13 August 2016
We had a great holiday at Le Fitou. The gite was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. It has a lovely pool and garden area which is great for relaxing. Roger and Jane were extremely helpful and gave some good advice about where to visit and where to eat. We particularly enjoyed hiring bikes at Paraza and the meal we had at L'O a la Bouche in Le Somail. We will definitely return.

Perfect for a family holiday (Copy of review on Trip Advisor)
We were delighted to find that this beautiful property fully lived up to its pictures and were especially happy with the high quality of the fittings and little touches such as soap and shower gel, sufficient towels and an extremely welcome selection of food to cover dinner and breakfast which allowed us to relax on arrival and shop when we were ready. We spent most of our time at the property relaxing round the beautifully kept pool on comfortable sun loungers and enjoyed eating our meals outside in a lovely private shaded area. The owners were very friendly and helpful, and good at suggesting places to visit.

Great week in Languedoc (Copy of review on Home Away)
Just returned from a delightful week staying with friends in Le Fitou at the Winemakers House.

Very spacious and comfortable and spotless inside and out with all facilities as listed on website

Jane and Roger are superb hosts providing an excellent welcome pack of essentials (and treats) on arrival and went above and beyond in providing guidance and information if required about getting the most out of your visit to this beautiful and historic part of France.
Ideal base for looking around or just chilling out.

The village is small and quiet with a shop providing bread and essentials, and a supermarket and Pharmacy are only a 5 minute drive.

La Garenne restaurant and Bar is good and only short walk to the river/ campsite.

Le Somail on the canal is only 20 minutes walk or 5 min in the car with L'O a la Bouche and several other good restaurants on the canal.

1.5 hr drive from Montpellier Airport/ Less from Carcassonne or Beziers.
Narbonne, Carcassonne ,Minerve ,Ventenac , Assignan are all within easy reach with great restaurants recommended by Jane and Roger.with easy reach by car

Thanks to Jane and Roger - top marks overall and will be back for more.

Dream House (Copy of review on Chez Nous)
This house is a dream. It has all you need on a holiday, the beds are comfortable and the bathrooms perfect. The pool is of a good size and immaculate, located in a beautiful garden with a patio.
The owners are extremely helpful and organise trips and excursions according to your needs. We have rented many places but this is by far the best. The village is small but has a little store and bakery.

Perfekt, super schönes Haus, alles vorhanden was man für einen schönen Urlaub benötigt. (Copy of review from Home Away)
In und um das Haus herum ist alles vorhanden was man braucht. Terrasse, Abstellplatz für Auto und Fahrräder. Genügend Geschirr, Gläser, Haushaltsgegenstände.Alles sehr sauber. Heizung Decken Waschmaschine... Jane und Roger sind sehr nett hilfsbereit und immer eine guten Idee auf Lager. Auch Ende März war der Pool zur Freude der Kinder mit Wasser gefüllt. Die beiden kleinen liebenswerten Hunde machten das Glück perfekt. Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig und trotzdem ist der kleine Laden, für Baguette und alles was man sonst so braucht nur wenige Schritte entfernt. Wir hatten trotz der frühen Jahreszeit einen wunderbaren Urlaub.

English (google) translation of review:
Perfect, super nice house, everything you need for a nice holiday.
Everything you need is available in and around the house. Terrace, parking place for car and bicycles. Enough utensils, glasses, household items. Everything very clean. Heating ceiling washing machine... Jane and Roger are very nice helpful and always a good idea in stock. Also at the end of March the pool was filled with water to delight the children. The two little lovable dogs made the happiness perfect. The house is very quiet and still the little shop, for baguette and everything else you need just a few steps away. We had a wonderful holiday despite the early season.
