About the home

Our medieval house situated on the banks of the Orbieu river in beautiful Lagrasse provides not only an ideal base to explore this rich and historic region but also acts as a destination in itself. THE INDEPENDANT RENTAL APARTMENT/GITE has a magnificent terrace which overlooks the iconic medieval stone bridge and the hills across the river. It provides the ideal space to spend your days and evenings. Watch the sun setting over the hills opposite while you have drinks and dinner cooked on the plancha.

The internal courtyard always stays cool and shady, even on the hottest summer days. Step out of the back and go for a paddle in the river or step out of the front door to find yourself in the heart of this special village. Parts of the house date back to medieval days. The cool colours of the ancient stone walls combine with the thoughtful renovation to create a calm and relaxing atmosphere.

Perhaps the most exciting feature of this gite is the top terrace - see below for further details. The smaller kitchen terrace is also a fantastic place to breakfast or dine.

The riverside top terrace is 90 square meters. It is half covered to provide shade for those wishing to keep out of the sun. It has a characterful old stone sink, a BBQ/Plancha and a cold shower for those of you who might wish for a speedy cooling off on those hot summer days!
There are loungers and a dining table seating eight. The terrace offers stunning views to the hills opposite as well as a spectacular sunset (the sun sets opposite). The kitchen terrace looks onto the internal courtyard and offers an atmospheric location for a morning coffee or evening meal.

The Languedoc-Roussillon / Aude region

In the heart of Cathar country the area provides a huge choice of activities. From visits to historic sites such as Carcassone or Peyrepertruse to the beautifully clean mediterranean beaches to wine tasting and local "fetes". This region offers more sunshine than any other part of France. The Aude is perhaps the undiscovered Provence.

The Lagrasse area

Lagrasse is famous for its abbey founded in 799 by Charlamagne. Local attractions are numerous and during the summer months the whole area is alive with fetes and other village events. Out of the summer season the village is a perfect place to spend time exploring the garrigue hills, sampling delicious local produce, cycling, canooing, horse riding or simply relaxing on the terrace overlooking the river.

“A little price of heaven” We booked the 3 bedroom apartment as ithe decor and terrace looked so fabulous, we were not disappointed it exceeded our expectations, Exceptionally clean and spacious chic decor, we immediately felt at home. the terrace is huge and the views are stunning. The apartment location and Lagrasse was perfect to explore the Languedoc region, we will certainly return in the future. I am extremely fussy where I stay and this was in my opinion perfect in every way, highly recommended.
