We have now stayed 3 times at Chateau de Rouvignac in the past 6 years and it remains a fantastic experience. Constance and Guy (the owners) are adorable and do all they can to make you feel at home in their little - well not so little actually - piece of paradise. Our children (12, 11, 7 and 4) love to play in the 2ha large parc/garden and in the large pool. There is plenty of space in the Chateau and the rooms, although having all modern amenities, transpire authenticity and gives one the impression that time stopped 50 years ago. Rouvignac is great for relaxing amidst the "grillons" and vinyards, but it is also a perfect basis for sightseeing around. There is a lot of culture to be found in the vicinity (the Romans and Cathars were there), Molière lived in Pesenas and Carcassonne is not far away. For those who prefer nature, there are many tracks & paths for walks and there is a big natural reserve some kilometers north. The beach, (and Guy can tell you the best spots to go to) is only ten - fifteen minutes away by car.

There is a bakery and several supermarkets only 2 - 3 miles down the road, so catering is easy too. Guy and Constance also willingly share their secrets about the finest restaurants in the neighbourhood. For those who need to check their emails regularly : no problem, there is Wifi upstairs. In the 4 weeks we have spent there in total we maybe had 2 days of intermittent rain. All other days, it was sunny and warm. We will sure return visit our friends Guy and Constance and stay at their perfect holiday rental !
