An attractive property with all you need. Its in a great location for exploring the area
The villa, in a quiet village 15 minutes drive from Carcassonne, has all you will need for a great family holiday (we were 7 people in total). The house is roomy and well equipped inside and has a spacious outside eating area and pool. The very hospitable hosts live on the site, so are available if you need them. The house is close to the Corbiere hills, close to Carcassonne and only a 50 minute drive to the coast. There are supermarkets and restaurants close by in Trebes. We had a great time and would be very happy to return again.
We stayed at Villa dâoleandres for a week in August 2018 (2 couples plus 4 teenagers). The house is well equiped, great kitchen, 3 bathrooms, 4 spacious bedrooms and on top of that a nice swimming pool and big bbq/fire place. The owners Carine and Steven are lovely people. Thank you for a great week in Floure!
The owners are discreet but helpful. They clean the pool every morning early and is nearby if needed.
The house was fine. There was a terrassedoor in the living room, that couldn't be locked when leaving the villa and the terrassedoor to the kitchen couldn't open (which was hot when cooking). But the kitchen is very big and well equipped and the beds comfortable and there is lots of towels to use.
It was very hot during the week we spend and there is no A/C and the 3 fans were small and poor. A suggestion might be to buy some bigger and more silent fans in floor size for the bedrooms.
The area is fine and it's easy to go on trips as the roads is nearby. However you can easily hear the road and the train at the house. It takes less than one hour to the Mediterranean sea and the beach in Narbonne is great. Lake du Cavaleyre is 15 mins away and is great for swimming and there is several activities: outdoor aquapark, tree climbing and waterboats for rent. A great place for families I Carcassonne is nice - both the new and
old ville and Trebes nearby has both big supermarkets, several small shops (bakery, butcher) and nice restaurants at the Canal du Medi. There is nothing to do in Floure, where the house is. There is wine all over the area many places open for tastings and buy at the farm.
We loved our holiday and the quietness from fuss and tourism which you find at the Riviera. There are no traffic jams in this area. People are very friendly and the owners at the house speak English, but French is preferred and nice to know everywhere else.
Lovely owners, property and pool. Great for kids and families/ friends, only 10 mins from Carcassone
The owners were really helpful and dealt with minor problems really quickly. They were both available and gave us plenty of space. The pool was great for the kids and very safe, and the location great for day trips. We had cars (which you definitely need) and there was plenty of space to park.
