The main bedroom which has a superb view, has its double bed against the wall so not ideal for whoever gets the inside space if they need to get up in the middle of the night!

As the caption says, amazing view, but not just of Carcassonne, the view of the Pyrenees is incredible too! Rooms are clean and as expected for the price are great for families. There is plenty of space and even a little garden off the kitchen. The walled city is a ten minute drive or actually a very enjoyable 45 minute walk. Whilst the main town has a lovely square with plenty of restaurants within a 15 minute walk.

Smelt a little musty when we arrived and the beds could have been a bit more comfortable.

Wonderful and very helpful host, beautiful view of the city. Great to have a garden as we brought our dogs with us. Well equipped kitchen with everything that we needed.

Layout of the apartment

Breakfast was 2 small cartons of orange juice, 2 yoghurts, 2 bread rolls, 2 pats of butter, 2 individual tubs jam, 2 croissant and 2 pastries. We enjoyed it and it was plenty for breakfast. There was also a coffee maker. We were also very appreciative of the lift to the airport on the day we left and our host would not accept any money from us, that was very kind!

Location was really good, can walk to heart of Carcassonne and the old city. Great view from the property. I liked the character of the place.

The cleaning before check out but for the price of rental it is worth it.

I’ve loved the wonderful view and how quiet and pleasant is the rustic house. The shower is great, the bed is confortable, all amenities for a lovely stay.

I opted to pay at the property but it was left that the payment would be done through bookings which I didn’t like.

Very cosy and quirky property. fab views over Carcassone and all that you’d need for a comfortable stay. lovely and warm with the heaters for this time of year.

The beds are not very comfortable to sleep in. It is old bedding with thin mattresses. The airco-unit is a remote one that is only active in the living room and with very low result.

It was close to the city center. It had a marvelous view on the old city. Which was only 5 min drive from the house. It was nicely decorated. Very authentic.

Layout was very quirky, but workable. Could do with a bit of TLC.

Location was great , bakery 1 minute walk.lovely views.

Incredible view of the old cite of Carcassonne, especially awesome at night.

Perfect hideaway apartment in a rustic house just out of the city centre, 10 mins from station and canal. Johan lives in the house above, and was a perfect host - there when needed (printed off my boarding pass - thanks!) but otherwise unobtrusive. Just what I needed - place to myself for an Autumn getaway, with fabulous view over the old medieval city on the other side of the valley. Great base for a few days' walking, eating, and drinking. The Canal du Midi and Aude river are great for longer or shorter walks, and although quieter than in Summer, most of the bars and restaurants were open.

Or party included an elderly woman who immediately knew that it wasn’t suitable for her. The steps were precarious, there was no door on one of the bedrooms and the property didn’t look well cared for, even accounting for its age. In the end, we declined to stay and moved on elsewhere. The owner was understanding and friendly.

Location was fine, and the view over Carcassonne was spectacular. Property owner very friendly.

Views are amazing, location is perfect and the gite is classically French - lovely spot and an excellent host

Not suitable for older or elderly travellers. Steep stone steps to and inside the property . Distance from the bedroom to the bathroom at night . Large canvases stored around the rooms , The oven was extremely dirty , (as pointed out by a previous customer ,and still not cleaned ) There would be a 40euro charge for cleaning if you were unable to strip beds and sweep out the apartment . This was not shown on the initial booking page with Booking.com There is no on site parking , or the road it is on , the only parking is on the main road. Again , this is not mentioned on the booking page .and for us would have been a definite no from the start.

Pleasant host , lovely dogs . I would call the property quirky , very shabby chic . The art on the walls was interesting.

An entire house with all facilities, an amazing view and the allowance of having our furry friend.

Stayed in January 2024

Low beds. Untidy external areas. Would have liked on site parking but the street parking was always available near the property. The rear of the property could be turned into an exceptional area to relax and dine, the view of the Castle is the best part of the properties offering. The gardens could be developed to allow guest to relax whilst taking in the view and it wouldn't take much to turn this property into a 9.5 in all aspects.

The property needs a little TLC. In the main it is most suited to younger travelers, low beds, and those of an arty persuasion. The host was great and helpful, he has a lot of art work scattered over the property. I would urge him to tidy up the court yard as it gives a poor first impression. Idealy suited to those who live a bohemian lifestyle, they would find the property querky enough to please. Kitchen well supplied with the necessary equipment and all in all it was adequate for our needs at a price which was value for money.

Stayed in September 2023

Not a fan of shower curtains. But such a small issue in comparison to the awesome place.

The views are amazing and the photos don't do them justice. Johan (Host) is fantastic and always eager to help with great recommendations and advice. Amazing bohemian feel to the place with just the right amount of french flare and romance.

Stayed in August 2023

A little musty and dark. Adequate for a short stay. Distance from town and the slightly worn out feel of apartment and furnishing might not suit a longer stay

Great view of the medieval city, a 15 minute walk uphill away from towns. Outside space to sit.

Stayed in July 2023

We didn't have breakfast due to leaving early. The location was close to the railway station but in a very quiet location. The views over Carcassonne and the old city were stunning. Lovely gite with everything you need for a relaxing stay. Quaint , rustic and homely. There's a amazing boulangerie and charcuterie 2 minutes from the gite which has everything you need.

The cleaning was not acceptable and the apartment looked sort of abandoned. The surroundings as well. There was a lack of intimacy given that the landlord lived just upstairs and we could hear all his steps as well as his dogs. We found no bugs but certainly the apartment could have been a good place for them to live. There was dirt and dust everywhere you looked. Contrary to what was announced in Booking, there was no shampoo nor hand soap. The toilet was upsetting as well.

The views were good and the living room was comfortable.

Stayed in April 2023

It was quite a long walk from the centre of town and there were no bars or restaurants in the immediate vicinity. Apart from making tea and coffee we did not the use the kitchen but it did not appear to be very well equipped.

The beds were comfortable and the shower was good. We were only there for two nights and spent very little time in the apartment so difficult to say anything else.

bed wasn't very comfortable but we were only there 1 night so wasn't a problem
