3 Bedroom Charming Stone Built House with Private Garden in Cubieres, Aude Reviews

A beautiful traditional french gite with welcoming but discreet English neighbours where we thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks with Marg, Jim and Lobo. On the first night we were invited to a local party with the villagers which helped our french no end.

The gite is spotlessly clean comfortable and with lots of character.

Lots to see and do in the area with the piece de resistence an evening visit to Carcassone for the 14th July celebrations. The Cite, surrounded by hills made a great view for the fantastic firework display. A long way to go but well worth the experience. Our advice, takea picnic and get there early.

In the local area the Cathar castles made interesting excursions as did the famous village of Rennes le Chateau with its interesting Holy Grail history.

We enjoyed walking locally the village markets and swimming both at the pool at Rennes les Bains and also at the gorge near the gite.

Further afield but easily reachable are Perpignan and the Beziers.

A great couple of weeks which we look forward to repeating one day.
