“With a little bit of tender love and care, the owners could improve on staying here for your vacation. This was a one week vacation for us as a family with two small childeren. The house itself looks nice enough. Upon entering the house we were welcomed by a very stale sent and as we approached the kitchen that sent even turned a bit moldy. We bought some scents in the supermarket to cover the bad smell so at least our stay wouldn't be shrouded in a musty smell. We arrived on saturday. There were no parasols present even though the Belvilla page did mention they would be present. We asked the owner twice for them. We received a good parasol at the pool on tuesday. A very small parasol (too small) was provided vor the eating table outside, which would not provide much shade. I wasn't going to bring the matter up again so we bought our own parasol for eating at the table. The tree at the eating table outside had no leaves and thus provided no shade. Eating in the sun was hot. From the terras of the house and the pool you have a great unhindered view of the citadel, which is beautifull. The jacuzzi was also not filled when we arrived. We had to wait untill tuesday to be able to use it. The jacuzzi area lacked any kind of table/chair/loungeseat ... The barbeque is very dated and doesn't fully function, but it got the job done nonetheless. The house has no airconditioning, which we knew and is no problem in itself, so you rely on cooling the house by opening windows at night and in the morning. But the house has no fly screens so all the mosquitos get to fly in. The house does have blinds which are great for sleeping and keeping the sun out. The pool was great in itself, even if the water was very cold. A sunsleeve on top of the water in the morning could quickly heat the water. However on thursday we noticed the water of the pool started turning slightly green. On friday it was obviously worse and stepping on the bottom felt slimy. I have no idea if any products were used to keep algae at bay but i could not smell any chlorine. The owners are very nice people. They live on the lower floor of the house. You do not notice them a lot. Sometimes you can hear them on the stairs but mainly they keep sounds down. We had a fierce thunderstorm which knocked the elektricity out twice. Them living in the house too made it easy to have elektricity restored. The house is located in a vacation home neighbourhood. However once you leave that neighbourhood you drive into the outskirts of Carcassonne. Carcassonne city is no longer what it has once been. A lot of marginal and malicious people were lurking around. Visiting the citadel was no problem as those people did not appear there but they did at the other sites throughout the city. The neighbourhood obviously no longer is what it has once been.”

“Nice stay; good location; beautiful view. Warm welcome by Valerie and Hughes and very helpful.”

“Great view of Carcassonne and had very nice tips to explore the area. Enjoyed on the beach in Narbonne. The dog is allowed and the owners live at the apartment. They are very helpful!”

“We were very pleasantly welcomed by the owner. He gave us many tips about what we definitely had to visit in Carcassonne. The accommodation was perfectly fine and very well maintained. Everything from material was present (material in the kitchen, fridge, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer). The bathroom was cool with the walk in shower. The pool is very clean and very cool and of course the jacuzzi. The area is beautiful with a beautiful view of the castle! It is really ideal to unwind and relax, highly recommended! You can visit a lot and Carcassonne is a beautiful region!”

“Everything was fine, very nice reception”

“Very welcoming reception Owner was involved gave valuable tips for nice things to see. View was gorgeous All was neat and clean”

“Warm welcome, lovely house. The owners have helped us with everything and recommended many nice things. Our dog was also very popular and welcome. We fell in love with Carcassonne itself. We had an incredibly nice week here.”

“Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed and got a tour through and around the house. Also told the owner what there was to do in the area. The view from the house and pool on the Cité (old castle complex) is fantastic. It is lovely to stay in the garden and bqq place. We were 6 adults and had all the space. What you are going to do in the area is of course different for everyone. We have visited beautiful villages and cities. Tourlouse is a must. The lock complex in the Canal de midi is fun. Visiting a few vintners and later drinking the bought wine at home gives a prolonged holiday feeling.”

“Warm welcome by the owner and his wife. Spacious clean house just as described. In the kitchen everything is also available, full explanation about the surroundings and sights.”

“A very warm welcome by the family, with lots of explanation and valuable tips by Hugeu. Accommodation absolutely perfect, what a view of Carcassonne and that from the pool! Great.

“Beautiful house with all the trimmings, including nice pool. From the house and pool direct view of the city of Carcassonne ( "the evening lit mythical. Owner is very welcoming and friendly. They produce a lot of tips to bezoeken.Prachtige environment in the area with something for everyone.”

“Very comfortable house with nice views of the citadel of Carcassonne. The house is in a residential neighborhood by the Canal du Midi (at an interest) the access to downtown (restaurants \/ shops) which complicates.”

“We had a lovely time in this house. The house is spacious, luxuriously furnished. Nice pool shared with the kind verhuurders.Zwembad, living room and balconies provide views of the medieval citadel of Carcassonne. The house is an excellent base for tochtenbin the area. For cycling, you need a big hill on the center of Carcassonne and the Canal du Midi.”

“Everything was in perfect order. Everything was there in the house, the pool was looked clean, both city and shops are very close. Recommended!”

“What a fantastic week in Carcassonne, the accommodation was great but what made it even better was the hospitality of the hosts.....fresh tomatoes from their garden and the best tips of what to see and when, they even booked a table for us at a fab restaurant that we would never have found without their local knowledge.”
