About this property

Old house in the heart of the Minervois

Holiday home located in the pedestrian area of a charming village in the Minervois.
Old building, renovated retaining the authenticity of the place with all the comfort necessary to make it pleasant.
True haven of calm and freshness, this cottage will delight lovers of old stones.

On the ground floor is the reading room with two comfortable chaise lounges. This room is the coolest and most pleasant in summer especially.

The mezzanine is the TV / DVD lounge area overlooking the attic bedroom.
On the first level is the second double bedroom and the bathroom / WC equipped with a walk-in shower.
The house has wireless internet access.

Very close to Minerve and the Cesse and Brian gorges, hiking enthusiasts will be delighted.

Beautiful, quirky, and private
The setting is lovely, and also well placed for exploring the area. Though I could have spent all my time on the terrace watching the birds of prey, and lizards!

A perfect home in an interesting area.
Lena's house in La Caunette is fantastic. We stayed for a week in September and could not fault the house at all. The bathroom is great, the shower is huge! The kitchen is fully equipped and there's so much space everywhere. There were only two of us staying but the house is plenty big enough for more people. The outside space is great, watching the geckos climbing through the fig tree was a brilliant way to while away a quiet afternoon! The village itself was very quiet but that's what we were after. It's easy to drive to lots of the local destinations, but there's also plenty of lovely walks around the village itself.

Beautiful patios in a quaint village
We loved the three levels of patios. Up, up, up until you felt you were in the tops of the trees and the mountains with the birds. Wonderful! The home was fine. When we got there we were exhausted with the many levels of stairs but soon that added to the wonderful characteristics of the home. After all, it is built into a gorge! It was tricky getting our suitcases up to the house. We worked that one out too. The village has lots of character. Cats and children laughing and playing in the piazza. A great place for our visit to the Languedoc.

Wir kommen gerne wieder
Wir durften hier eine Woche Anfang August verbringen. Leider viel zu kurz, das Haus ist fantastisch. Es ist wunderschön restauriert und mit viel Liebe fürs Detail eingerichtet. Über verschiedenen Ebenen gebaut hat man viel Platz. Die Küche ist ebenfalls sehr gut, es ist alles vorhanden was man braucht. Das Highlight ist die Terrasse mit dem Feigenbaum, welcher uns bei der Augusthitze angenehmen Schatten spendete. Eine Oase der Ruhe. Das Dorf ist sehr klein, es gibt aber ein Café und ein fantastisches Restaurant. Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit in Lenas Haus und kommen bestimmt einmal wieder.
