The Languedoc-Roussillon / Aude region


This is a beautiful region of France where vineyards and sunflowers abound.
Wine tasting is everywhere including in the village itself.
Thr Pyrenees are visible from many places locally and easily reached.
The location is wonderful too for visiting the many Cathar castles and of course the fairytale ancient cité of old Carcassonne is a must for young and old alike.
The "rose" city of Toulouse makes a great day out and of course the mediterranean beaches are little over an hour away and only 2 hours to the borders with Spain.
The Limoux / Pieusse area
The house is located in a village called Pieusse and is situated approximately 3km from Limoux. Pieusse is typical of a sleepy circulade village of the region where the pace of life is very slow but you may find yourself here when there is a local fete and then there will be dancing in the streets literally.
Limoux just 3km away is renowned for its sparkling wine Blanquette de Limoux said to predate champagne. It has to be tried and where better that at the summer night market held every week in July and August. Market day is every Friday in Limoux and Monday in the medieval and historic square of Mirepoix.

Guestbook for Olive Tree House
We had a wonderful holiday, the house was a hit with all of the family. The locals were very friendly and the nearby town of Limoux had fabulous restaurants all within possible walking distance.
Dave Brown, Hampshire - July 2009
My husband and I had a lovely winter break, the log burner was very welcome on the cold evenings and made the whole house cosy.
