THE HOUSE

The house is a very comfortable 19th century country house in its own grounds, surrounded by terraced gardens ("les ourtets" in the local occitan language) and woods, with fine views over the village and nearby hills.

On the ground-floor, there is a spacious and comfortable lounge with a fire for winter evenings and a well furnished dining-room for your candle-lit evening meals.

Upstairs, there are four comfortable bedrooms with views over Cuxac.

The Gardens

Terraced gardens built with local stones surround the house, blending in with the country hills. Fruit trees, flower bushes, wild and cultivated perennials all mingle in a medley of colours for the pleasure of guests and the wild life too! Birds, bats, red squirrels, butterflies, bees will also be your hosts here.

Beyond the gardens you will enjoy the surrounding hills, the village roofs and woods where you may see sheep quietly grazing.

The Guests and Facilities

Formerly run as a community guest-house, it is now available for holiday rentals.

The house is large enough to cater for families or groups of friends who can talk, relax, read, listen to music or just meditate in a corner of the garden.

Particularly welcome are people interested in outdoor persuits such as hiking, cycling, motor-cycling, swimming, bird-watching, etc.

It is also a very good starting point for visiting historical sites such as Carcassonne, Lastours, Saissac, Minerve, etc.

Note that the house is a smoke-free zone.
