Summary: We stayed in L’Olivier with our two boys aged 4 and 6 years. It was clean, very spacious and well equipped. Claudia met us on arrival, and was very welcoming without being intrusive. They had a fantastic pool and the grounds were extensive. There was plenty there to keep the boys entertained, and our eldest son even got to have a ride on the tractor with Claudia’s husband! It’s conveniently located for Carcassonne airport and its historic city. There’s a couple of patisseries and a local supermarket a few minutes drive away. All in all, a lovely gite in a very scenic setting. We hope to return next summer!

Summary: It’s a wonderful house with all the things you might need for a perfect vacation and even more, amazing location in between vineyards that provide with the peace and quiet of the country side but also perfectly connected to any needs of supply or amenities, Frank was very charming and helpful with everything we needed, and did made us have a great family vacation!

Summary: Our stay in Le Palmier was a delight. The quiet and relaxing surroundings were perfect for us and our 2 border collie dogs (who settled very quickly and were made welcome). The garden was safe & secure, we had 2 outside eating areas to choose from and there was acres of walking around the growing vines. The inside facilities were excellent, all working to a high standard, and the spacious surroundings were very comfortable. Claudia's welcome and excellent orientation was just right. As for location, the spot is well located to explore the Aude region, Carcassonne and the mountains to the north and south. As for the pool, divine; sadly we only stayed the week!

Summary: What a great place to stay with friends! We've just had a wonderful week staying in L'Olivier - plenty of space for us to have a room each, fantastic grounds, fabulous pool, and scorchio to boot. Claudia and Rainaldt were great hosts: welcoming and helpful but not intrusive. They created a relaxed, hospitable altmosphere in their charming home. One of the best gites I have stayed at: really well equipped and large spacious rooms. We enjoyed exploring the surrounding countryside spectavular Carassonne but also Narbonne and the coast and the wonderful nearby Montolieu: town of second hand/antique bookshops. Highly recommended. Thank you!

Summary: We had a wonderful time at Le Trabet (the overall name of the property--each site is separately named). If you are considering a trip to the beautiful area around Carcassonne in Languedoc-Roussillon, this is the place for you. The gites are in a beautiful old country home down a little country lane. The house is perfectly situated for day trips in this interesting area. As you leave the house for your adventures, the snow-covered Pyrenees are clearly visible directly in front of you. We stayed in Le Palmier. It has a large main bedroom and a large living room. There is a small additional bedroom. The fireplace in our bedroom had the date 1791 carved in it, but all of the units have been tastefully updated with modern conveniences. Each unit has its own little terrace area opening to the beautiful grounds. The owner, Claudia, is from Germany, but after many years living in the U.S. speaks perfect English, as well as French and Spanish. We had interesting conversations with her over wine and cheese at the ends of several of our days exploring the area. She brought us fresh bread on the days she was going to the bakery in a nearby village. Carcassonne is the most famous site in the area, and it deserves its reputation. It is a beautifully restored medieval city with all of its walls and turrets in place. The gite was also a perfect base for day trips into the surrounding area which we found equally interesting as Carcassonne itself. There are many scenic places connected with the Cathars, an early Christian group that was wiped out by the Catholic church in the 1200's. The countryside is varied but consistently beautiful. This is the largest wine-producing area in France. We often took local wine, cheese, and bread for picnics along the way, but there are also three Michelin-starred restaurants within 15 minutes of the gite, so you can have it all--and without the crowds of tourists in more heavily visited areas like Provence.

Summary: We spent a lovely two weeks at Le Trabet. The grounds were peaceful and well tended, the pool was wonderful and the accommodation beautiful, comfortable and very clean. The local area is perfect for family holidays with plenty to do and places to visit. There are many vineyards. However, what really stood out was the warm, friendly welcome we received from Claudia and her family, who were outstanding hosts. We would highly recommend Le Trabet.

Summary: As my sister (Catriona R.) noted in her review, this property is maintained to a very high standard. In particular, the swimming pool is kept spotlessly clean. Claudia and her family are the most gracious hosts you could hope to meet. Wonderful food, fields of sunflowers, vineyards, sounds of classical piano, who could ask for more.

Summary: This is the second year running that my family has shared this gite with my brother's family, which is recommendation enough. The property was spacious and well appointed enough to accommodate 8 of us with ease. Everything in the house is spotless and tastefully refurbished, while the grounds, pool, courtyard and sunflower filled surroundings are all similarly beautiful. Claudia, the owner, could not be more accommodating. We recommend Bareil the butcher (less than 10 mins drive away), Montolieu for wine (and cafes and books!), Carcassone for pastries and visiting local markets for veg to make the most of self catering in this wonderful place! There is also an amazing restaurant called Ambrosia again, less than 10 mins drive away and of course plenty of places to fill up on Cassoulet.....

Summary: Le Trabet is wonderful place to stay. The house, courtyard and gardens are very attractive. Our kids really enjoyed exploring the grounds. The pool, as the photo accurately depicts, is fantastic. Laurier is lovely. It's tastefully decorated to a high standard and very well equipped. We really appreciated the attention to detail and quality of both the gite and the wider property. If you like cycling then it's an excellent base for riding in La Montagne Noire.

Summary: Le Trabet was exactly what we were looking for: a nice quiet setting but close enough to local sites to go exploring. Carcassonne is only a short drive away but there is so much more to see! There are lots of castles and picturesque hilltop villages to see. The foothills of the Pyrenees are not far away. The owners were very friendly, always helpful and ready to suggest nice places to visit. The gites (Le Palmier) is spacious, comfortable and had everything we needed. There is heaps of space in the surrounding park lands, the pool was perfect for cooling down after hot day. It was an all-round perfect holiday and we'd love to come back some time. Highly recommended!
