We spent six weeks at L'Horte during May and June. It is set in the most beautiful countryside, away from any noise and in the middle of farmland.The house itself is extremely well equipped, we found we had everything we needed and were able to make ourselves at home. The pool was a perfect place to cool off and relax.There is so much wildlife - almost too much to mention from the birds and butterflies to hares and the geckos.Jean was an extremely helpful host, there to welcome us to the property and on hand with any queries. The bedrooms were very comfortable and outside spaces well equipped - the large canvas awning at the front of the house was most welcome. It is quiet and a most peaceful place, with easy access to Carcasonne and other local towns. A few hours to the coast or Spain. We would thoroughly recommend to couples, groups of friends and families.
House and pool were good. However we did have a couple of electrical problems and because lived 500k away it was a bit difficult to get hold of Jean. When we did they were resolved.
The house is absolutely charming!
Moreover itâs spacious and functional. We love the scenery, the amazing terrain. More than enough space to play football!
Kind welcome!
The bedrooms are ok. Only thing is that the beds in the kids room has very thin mattresses. For older kids, larger beds with thicker mattresses would be convenient.
We knew very little about the area when we booked but were attracted by the unique character of the property and proximity to Toulouse airport for convenient flights. It was much better than anticipated.
The location is remote and yet not very far at all from the autoroute and all the services of Castelnaudary. Set in completely unspoilt countryside, the birdsong all around the property and the amazing range of wildlife - all kinds of butterflies and songbirds, falcons, hare, deer - was a real delight.
The property is very well maintained and yet has a great air of history about it with lots of lovely furniture and plentiful kitchen equipment to cater for even large family gatherings. It really has the feel of a much-loved family retreat. The pool has full sunshine all day long but is totally secluded. There are a number of wooden decking terraces so you can choose your location for eating out or relaxing in full sun or shade throughout the day. There are lovely views to the local hill-top village of Mireval-Lauragais and the surrounding hills with the sweet sound of the church bells marking the passing time.
The historic wonder of Carcassonne is less than an hour away and the cross-country route takes you through some beautiful countryside with bean fields, sunflowers and vineyards with wine tasing available. There is a lovely bakery/tea room at the next village of Fendeille.
Our host, Jean, was very helpful.
Prachtig ruim en gezellig huis met een echt enorm perceel grond eromheen. Afgelegen maar toch dichtbij, 10 minuten met de auto, van winkels en restaurant. Prima lokatie voor het bezoeken van Toulouse en Carcassonne. Eigenaar zeer hartelijk en gastvrij.we hebben het geweldig hier gehad.
Authentiek vakantiehuis met groot terras en meer dan voldoende terrasmeubilair. Het zwembad was voldoende groot en goed onderhouden. Toegang via onverharde weg, ideale locatie voor wie op zoek is naar rust en kalmte, gelegen tussen de zonnebloemvelden.
Goede verbinding naar bakker (Fendeille) en supermarkten (Castelnaudary).
We had the most relaxing stay in this beautiful place in beautiful surroundings.
Our dogs were so happy with the garden, the kids enjoyed the house, pool and garden. There is lots to do and see nearby like Carcassonne and Toulouse but also Bram is a nice little town.
Jean was very friendly and welcoming and gave us many helpful tips.
Thank you for having us, we will be back as soon as possible!
Es war einfach nur schön. Wir sind noch nie so zur Ruhe gekommen. Schönes Haus, schöner Pool, grandioser "Garten", netter und unkomplizierter Empfang, sehr nette und schnelle Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter! Alles in allem ein perfekter Urlaub.
Wir haben unseren Urlaub im Ferienhaus sehr genossen.
Das gemĂŒtlich eingerichtete Haus liegt sehr ruhig in schöner Umgebung und bietet alles fĂŒr einen entspannten und erholsamen Urlaub.
Besonders beeindruckt hat uns das riesige GrundstĂŒck mit faszinierendem Baumbestand, das zu Entdeckungen einlĂ€dt.
Ob AusflĂŒge mit dem Fahrrad in die Umgebung oder Erkundung der vielen historischen StĂ€dte und Burgen, Abstecher in die PyrenĂ€en oder ans Meer, fĂŒr all dies ist dieses Domizil ein hervorragender Ausgangspunkt.
mooie woning op een enorm perceel met mooi uitzicht
Super genoten in dit mooie huis met een enorm stuk grond en een fijn zwembad. Elke dag gezwommen en lekker liggen en lezen onder de overkapping bij het zwembad. We waren met 4 volwassenen. Het huis is erg ruim (inrichting wat gedateerd beneden, maar van alle gemakken voorzien). Door omstandigheden hadden we de hulp nodig van onze gastvrouw Evelye, die ons meer dan voortreffelijk heeft geholpen. In de omgeving is veel te zien, Carassonne, Toulouse, Castres, Gorge de Galamus. Boodschappen op korte afstand. Fijn vakantie adres. We denken niet dat er ergens anders zo'n groot perceel met zoveel privacy beschikbaar is.
Liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus, wo man sich sofort wohl fĂŒhlt!
Das Haus liegt sehr lÀndlich, schön ruhig. Ein altes, sehr liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus, hier trifft Altes auf Modernes.
Es gibt viele Spiele, Tischtennisplatte, beheizter Pool ect.
Wer Ruhe sucht und etwas Platz benötigt ist hier genau richtig.
Wir hatten einen tollen Urlaub!
