Summary: We have recently returned from a lovely week in Tourouzelle. The location was really good, with so much to offer in the area to keep all members of the family happy. We enjoyed spending time by the pool and visiting the coast (Leucate Plage was lovely), walking in the hills (the four castles walk at Lastours highly recommended) and zip-wiring across the lake near Carcassone (the longest zip-wiring course we have done, and excellent value for money). We were really pleased to find such a good selection of bikes in the shed, and were able to find the right size bikes for the whole family (including 2 boys aged 11 and 8) to cycle to Homps and further on to the local lake. Not far away there is a great company called Eaurizon offering lots of activities from kayaking down the river to gorge-walking. (The kayaking was fab but we would recommend not choosing the shortest of the trips - it was over far too soon!) Carcassone itself was interesting, and the food market at Narbonne was fantastic. The gite itself was clean and comfortable and we really appreciated all the information Jonathan and Susannah provide in their welcome pack, as well as excellent communication beforehand. We would not hesitate to return to La Maison des Vignes and would highly recommend it to others.

Summary: We spent a very nice week at Tourouzelle. Jonathan's apartment "Lavande" is very spacious, well equipped and we enjoyed the covered terrace. Jonathan provided a website with many good suggestions for restaurants and trips. Check-in and check-out were flexible and we felt very welcome.

Summary: We had a wonderful relaxing stay in Gite Lavande - a hidden gem tucked away in peaceful rural French village. Jonathan & Susannah were excellent hosts and the intro drinks party at the start of our week was a lovely way to meet the other two families staying on site. The gite was very comfortable and well equipped and the pool area was wonderful - we very much hope to be able to return again.

Summary: The facility was large enough for 6 or more people and had a great kitchen and living area. Jonathon was terrific and very responsive. He even loaned us a hack-saw to cut off the end of an oar to fit in our suitcase to take back to the U.S.

Summary: First trip Post Covid so a little bit nervous but the property was fantastic and Jonathan was a great host. The property had everything we needed but it was the little touches that really made it stand out. The BBQ and pool were used heavily but the Online Guide Jonathan created was fantastic and helped us really make the most of experiencing this beautiful and historic area for the first time. The only problem was we needed 2 weeks not 1 to tick off the Top 10 and even that would just be scratching the surface. Having Jonathan on site was also very reassuring not that anything went wrong.

Summary: We stayed here in August 2017 as a family of 6 renting the Lavande Gite. There are 3 Gites on site 2 x 3 bedroom and 1 x 2 bedroom. The Lavande is on two floors with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on the kitchen level and a twin/double bedroom and separate bathroom upstairs. Note the Lavande and Coquelicot gites have 10 or so steps to get to them. Jonathan and Suzanna were very welcoming and put us at our ease straight away. They generously host a soiree once a week for the guests of the different gites to meet each other and themselves which is lovely. The (heated) pool area is an oasis and the high walls create a sun trap. The village is tranquil but there is a shop and a post office and at least 2 x degustation caves and the locals are friendly with some schoolboy/girl French being required to make yourself understood. Free bike borrowing is provided (there are approx. 6 adult sized bikes) and it's lovely to cycle through the vineyards and by the Canal du Midi. Good quality Weber gas BBQs are provided and the meat available from the local Utile near Homps is fabulous. Jonathan and Suzanna provide all the information you need on places to go to/see, things to do & places to eat and will book for you. The Chantovent restaurant in Minerve is a MUST. The area is lovely - there are plenty of local markets & Carcassonne is not far away. You will need a car though. We only scratched the surface of all this place has to offer and were made to feel so welcome that we will be returning in 2018. Thanks again Jonathan & Suzanna.

Summary: honestly don't know where to start because everything about La Maison Des Vignes is perfect. Usually when the holiday blurb states that the owners live on site I avoid, but on this occasion Jonathan and Suzanna being around made the holiday special. They are both so welcoming and helpful, from giving you tips about places you would like to visit to being honest about local restaurants. I can't praise them enough, they have the balance between being helpful and discrete absolutely spot on. We stayed in Gite Lavender and it was large enough for our family of five. The outdoor eating area was lovely and the swimming pool is wonderful, we had it to ourselves most of the time. The location is lovely, right in the middle of the village, which is a friendly welcoming place, there are no restaurants but it's just a short drive to Homps and Olonzac where there's a number of eating places catering for all tastes. It's a perfect base to explore this area of France as most places including the beaches are within an hours drive and also it's a lovely place to relax in the late afternoon and evening after a busy day exploring. My 8 year old son has asked me everyday since leaving 'when can we return' and he's never asked me that before, even when we came back from Disney, so it must be perfect!

Summary: We had a great time in our gîte at La Maison des Vignes. Gîte Lavande is a very spacious place for up to 8 people. We were only 4 so the kids had their own bedroom each. Great architecture and beautiful views over the vinyards. Wonderful pool area with plenty of space for all. The hosts Jonathan and Suzanna are very, very friendly and have some good advice for each activity that you might plan. Always helpful! They made us feel like home. We enjoyed the welcome soirées very much when you get to know the other guests and the hosts and taste some local specialties. Also enjoyed a local village party with music and dance and more great local food. The area is wonderful for wine tasting, riding the bikes along the Canal du Midi, exploring the countryside with beautiful gorges (Minerve), shopping at local markets, medieval historic castles, fortresses and cities (Carcassonne, Lagrasse, Narbonne,...), fishing in the river Aude, swimming in the rivers and going to the beach (35 minutes to Gruissan Plage), canoeing on the river Aude and even horse riding and naturally relaxing at the great pool. We would very much recommend spending one ore two weeks at La Maison des Vignes.

Summary: We had a delightful time staying at Lavande in early September 2013. The property was well maintained and equipped with all that we needed. Jonathan and Suzanna the owners were very welcoming and helpful with their advice of where to visit and eat. Jonathan even arranged for the tickets for the 4 of us to go and see Montpellier play Toulouse in a Top 14 rugby match. Carcassone, Minerve, Narbonne and Montpellier well worth a visit for the history and shopping. The local village shop was wonderful for the daily croissants and bread whilst there are bigger supermarkets not too far away. There was also a very good weekly market at Olonzac. Megan and Anna enjoyed staying by the pool whilst Jackie and I managed to go on the bikes provided through the local vineyards and along the canal du Midi. Overall it was a very comfortable gite with plenty to do for all ages. We hope to visit again in the not too distant future.

Summary: Our planning was last minute. We were 2 adult couples, one of whom were first time visitors to France. We all have no hesitation in recommending this property to new or experienced travellers to the region. La Maison Des Vignes is in an excellent location for exploring the coast, mountains, castles and historic towns or none of the above next to the pool. Jonathan and Suzanna, the owners, took a personal interest in our experience, maintained the facilities to a high standard and run their properties professionally. Welcome packs with pre-specified foodstuffs and the get together with the other gite vacationers added to the experience. Two of the gites are accessed via wooden steps (with fittings for child gates).
