The Languedoc-Roussillon / Aude region
The Languedoc-Rousillon region has lots to offer. Its a beautiful region famous for its wine and historic cathar castles. It is only one hours drive to both the beautiful mediterranean coast and the breathtaking pyrenees for skiing, or walking. It is also only an hour and a halfs drive to the border of spain, and about 3 hours from Barcelona. The area has so much to offer from the historic worldwide tourist attraction of Carcassonne Cite to the very cosmopolitan Toulouse, from the beaches to mountains. There are also beautiful lakes and thermal spings. It has a very mild climate with a short winter from November to March. Even in winter the blue sky can be spectacular.
Limoux area
Limoux is a wonderfully lively town, with almost constant social events whether its the famous carnival which runs for three months from January to March, wine festivals or summer festivals. It has an animated square with bars and restaurants. There are some exceptional places to eat in Limoux and in the surrounding area, all of which are very reasonably priced. Within Limoux itself there is an indoor swimming pool and an outdoor pool on the same site which is open in July and August. In the same vicinity there are tennis courts and a canoe station on the River Aude.
Only 15 minutes drive away there is a forest recreation park and a wonderful outdoor thermal swimming pool. The spectacular Lac Montbel is situated within 30 minutes drive where in July and August you can hire boats,pedalos, bikes and go pony trekking. Within an hours drive there is the beautiful Mediterranean coast. Narbonne Plage and Lecaute Plage are the nearest and have beautful white sandy beaches. If you fancy shopping Montpellier, Perpignan and Toulouse are all no further than an hour and a half away. Closer to home there is Narbonne, Mirepoix and various points of access to the Canal du Midi.
How to get there
Ryanair offer very reasonable flights from Stanstead to Carcassonne just 25 minutes from Limoux Ryanair also fly into Montpellier (2 hours drive) and Perpignan (1 hour and 30 minutes drive). Easyjet have a flight from Gatwick to Toulouse which is about 1 hour away Flybe offer a flight from Southampton to Perpignan.
If you would prefer to drive it takes about 11 hours and you can either take the ferry from Portsmouth to Cherbourg or Dover to Calais or you can take the Eurotunnel from Folkestone to Calais.

Guestbook for House in Limoux
A lovely clean fresh house with all we needed at our fingertips. The area is beautifully unspoilt - the view from the back garden is glorious. You will need a car but nothing is too far away. A lovely stay thankyou!
We liked very much your house. It was very comfortable to arrive to a house so kindly. It was very easy to accommodate ourselves in the rooms. Everything was new and clean. You have done a good choice in decoration and the beds are very comfortable. The house is a very peaceful place to sleep. As we like very much the area, and there are some places we couldn't to visit, we'll try to go back to your house, if possible.
