About this property

Secluded, Exclusive spacious villa with private heated pool, full air-con, Wi-Fi

Azille is a Cathare village with historic buildings, but is complete with modern amenities: shops, restaurants, bar, tennis courts, a nearby lake for water sports etc. Wine tours and visiting Caves are popular pastimes, and there are local markets in Azille and the nearby villages.
Kilima is approached via a gated drive leading into the landscaped garden. A luxury property, Kilima is perfect for a memorable family holiday. Set amid Azille's vineyards and olive groves, Kilima benefits from breathtaking views across the Black Mountains and the Pyrenees. Yet, along with the proximity to the vineyards of Minervois, the medieval city of Carcassonne, a world heritage site, is a short drive away, and the clean, uncrowded , beaches of Gruissan with wind-surfing, jet-skis and sailing available. Narbonne a similar distance away has a picturesque town centre with the Canal-du-Midi, markets and cosmopolitan restaurants.
The 11 x 5m private pool is a much loved feature of the property, particularly in the summer when the local temperature hovers around 30`C! There are pool and terrace lights for night-time dips. It is overlooked by a shaded terrace, ideal for al- fresco dining. The villa is decorated to an unforgettably luxurious standard making for a truly relaxing holiday.
The villa is equipped with Wi-Fi internet and telephone, Sonos, X-Box 360, TV, Blu-Ray DVD with cinema style surround sound system and a selection of DVDs. There is a satellite dish to receive English channels. Rowing machine and Exercise bike along with a Pool table and Table Football are in the Games Room. There is an outdoor table tennis table, and bikes in the garage. The house offers activities for those of all tastes. Kilima truly can cater for everybody's needs and desires.
The very large lounge/ dining room/ kitchen is the hub of the house. Cooking and dining become a truly family endeavour. There is a Gas Barbecue on the covered terrace.
The kitchen is comprehensively equipped: the standard American fridge-freezer/ ceramic hob/ oven/ dishwasher are augmented by an array of gadgets from smoothie maker to fondue set.
The Games room also houses the washing-machine and tumble-dryer.
There is a travel cot and high-chair available. The property is also suitable for wheelchair-users, being mostly on one level.
2 of the bedrooms have king-size beds, and en-suite bathrooms. The other 2 bedrooms have twin beds that can be joined to make a super-king-size bed.
For that extra sense of security, the villa is equipped with an easy to operate security alarm, and electric roller shutters to the windows.

Beautiful, Complete Property
Beautiful views, lots of privacy and one of the best stocked properties that we have ever rented are what you get with Kilima. And an actual, proper, propane, full-sized BBQ grill which is virtually impossible to find in Europe. Ductless heat pumps in every room so you can always set the perfect temperature. We would have liked to spend even more time in the heated pool but unfortunately the September temperatures were a little lower than we had expected. We had a great stay at Kilima.

Fantastic villa, lovely area
This is a beautiful villa within easy access to all the lovely places to visit in the area. The villa was spotless and the pool lovely ( although access is difficult for people with mobility issues, very steep steps with no rail). The downstairs en-suite bedroom is ideal as it has a walk in shower. The local area has some very good restaurants. Would thoroughly recommend. 5 stars.

A wonderful villa in Azille
This is a lovely holiday home, tastefully decorated and very well equipped. Lots of great features: nice pool, games room, bikes, views over the vineyards towards the hills, and much more. Peaceful setting but groceries are all within easy reach (in a choice of ancient, hill top towns). We had a great time here.

Azille Kilima villa
Beautiful villa with everything you need. Great pool. Super for disabled grandma. Lovely markets nearby. Easy to walk into village for baguettes every morning. We enjoyed wine tasting at Chateaux Guery in Azille. Olive tasting, canyoning, kayaking, local markets and enjoying the restful villa overlooking vineyards and the most amazing view. Thank you so much Mike and Suzie

un max de comfort
Nous avons adorés notre séjour sur place. La maison est super bien équipée et les charmants propriétaires étaient toujours dispo pour répondre à nos questions ! La région est un trésor en centres d'intérêts : culture / mer / montagne / nature / culinaire donc chacun peut y trouver un centre d'intérêt. La piscine fut fort bien appréciée par chacun vu les fortes températures ! Le seul point que nous pouvons soulever ne dépends pas du propriétaire mais de la rigueur des locataires précédents à savoir le fait de bien traiter/nettoyer les objets du ménage tels que barbecue ou douche ou sel dans le lave vaiselle. Il faut toujours entretenir une maison de location comme si c'était sa propre maison ! Merci bcp aux propriétaires pour leur gentillesse et leur assistance lors de notre séjour. Un séjour 5 étoiles !

Endroit calme et retiré
Très agréable, vaste. Piscine superbe. Air climatisée partout, dans chaque chambre, dans l'aire principale (cuisine/salon) et chambre de lavage/jeux. Très confortable, très belle sélection de romans et DVD malheureusement la grande majorité en anglais. Service attentif pour l'entretien de la piscine. Manque, cependant, des miroirs dans 2 des 3 salle de bain/douche (un peu compliqué pour se faire la barbe le matin). Propriété bien sécurisée (volets motorisés partout, système d'alarme, portait d'accès verrouillable). Nous avons bien aimé, ma famille et moi, notre séjour dans cette belle villa.

Perfect stay sourrounded by vineyards
We spent a week in Kilima as a group of friends. The villa was perfectly located outside a small village between vineyards and olive groves. Check-in was simple and contact-free and communication with the host (Susie) was always helpful and uncomplicated. Highly recommendable for families (there is table soccer and pool billiard in the house) or a group of close friends!

Propriété au calme au cœur des vignes et petit village pittoresque, proche de nombreux sites touristiques. Piscine, vélo, billard, appareils sportif très appréciés. Très belle maison avec volumes et décoration très agréable et équipement quotidien très complet (vaisselles, appareils électro-ménagés...) Seul bémol sur certains couchages un peu inconfortables.

Excellent holiday house
Wonderful house in a beautiful area. The house has it all: very big pool, air con , fully equipped kitchen, games and fitness. We really enjoyed the table football on the patio, with a nice glass of wine, cool down in the pool. Plenty of possibilities for trips. Also mountainbikes are provided. Communication with the owners was also swift and professional. We see ourselves return one day to Azille.

Post-Covid lockdown break
We stayed in the villa in July 2020. The villa is very spacious and the air conditioning throughout the villa was great on hot days although never needed to use anything other than the bedroom aircons. The kitchen is extremely well equipped with all the necessary mod cons having all sorts of utensils available. The upstairs bedroom has a great view of the vineyards. On rainy days, there are DVDs, books and even some board games available. We enjoyed the table tennis and the snooker table and tried the rowing machine and spinning. The children enjoyed the facilities available. There's a good sized pool which was cleaned while we were there and the owners were very prompt to respond with any queries raised. We visited Carcassonne which we enjoyed and explored the beaches which were around 40 min away. Great spot for some local cycling routes - just remember to factor in the wind!
