Excellent séjour

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette belle région. La grande maison est parfaite car très fonctionnelle et bien équipée. Il ne manque rien pour notre confort et nos loisirs (vélos, boules de pétanque, etc...). On pouvait se croire chez nous et facilement imaginer plusieurs générations venues se retrouver en famille dans cette maison et son beau terrain. Aussi, les propriétaires sont très disponibles. Merci !!!

Très bon séjour à Caunes

Gîte situé à l’entrée du village, grande maison avec un bel espace. Diverses activités (gouffre géant, baignade, Carcassonne et villages) à 30 minutes de route. Les propriétaires sont très accueillants !

maison spacieuse, jardin agréable et accueil soigné des propriétaires

Charmants propriétaires qui nous ont fait visité le village à notre arrivée afin de nous repérer (commerces, OT, espaces d'expositions, restos...). Spacieuse maison toute équipée en sortie de bourg donnant sur un grand jardin planté d'arbres fruitiers en libre service.
