additional information:
Roquetaillade, situated in the middle of the Limoux wine region and surrounded by hills, is a well-preserved medieval mountain village with pretty, narrow streets where almost all the houses are built of natural stone. From the church, one of the highest points in the village, there is a beautiful view of the surrounding vineyards with the Domaine du Moulin in the background on the is famous for the longest carnival in Europe (and it gets longer every year) and "Blanquette de Limoux", an excellent sparkling wine made using the champagne method. Cooking enthusiasts should make a note of Friday, market day, with many regional delicacies on offer. Limoux also has a range of shops and restaurants of varying price points.'La Cité, the stunning medieval fortress of Carcassonne, is a World Heritage Site, inspired Walt Disney and has been the setting for many films including Kevin Costner's 'Robin Hood'. Within the fortress walls are numerous medieval buildings, unfortunately most now house shops and restaurants. The most medieval impression is best gained by a walk around the ramparts with beautiful views of Carcassonne and the Canal du Midi, also a World Heritage Site, is nearby and can be explored by bike or boat with its cathedral and other historic sites. It also boasts a picturesque old town centre with pretty parks, flea markets and designer boutiques, so attractive that you may end up with nothing left in the till to try one of the many inviting restaurants. On the outskirts of the town, the Musée Spatiale offers entertainment and education for astronauts of all , the old maritime centre, with its bishop's palace and picturesque narrow streets, is a jewel to be discovered among the man-made holiday developments of this coastal strip Marketplace of Mirepoix, with its wooden arcades dating back to the 13th century. A selection of villages worth visiting: Minerve - a small village on a peninsula of a deep river valley with two huge tunnels washed out by the river. Alet-les-Bains, a medieval village surrounded by an old city wall with many half-timbered houses and Rennes-le-Chateau, famous for its mysterious priest and the still not found and Gruissan - the most original villages close - a beautiful former fishing village with three bays, a castle, Windmill and narrow streets with colourful la Clape - simply beautiful, rocky countryside and Cathar castles, most of which cling to the rocky mountains like eagles' nests, offer fantastic views and testify to the power of this medieval religious sect, which has retained followers to this day. Peyrepertuse is the largest and Lastour the most beautiful castle. To list the Pyrenees sights and activities here would be beyond the scope Mediterranean Sea with its endless beaches is just over an hour away. Our favourite beach is La Franqui with its pine forest that almost reaches the shore, its lagoon and the small beaches of the Languedoc. One of the most impressive gorges is Gorges de Galamus, with its winding road carved into the rock. Near the end of the gorge is a hermitage clinging to the steep rock face. The area of Aude is rich in prehistoric fossils. This is why there is an excellent dinosaur museum in Espéraza (right next to the hat museum), where you can admire many fossils and reconstructions of local finds. School trips are also organised to a disused quarry next to Domaine du Moulin to see fossils, the Grotte de Niaux is claimed to have the best prehistoric paintings after the Grotte de Lascaux, and the prehistoric park nearby illustrates Stone Age life for children young and old in very attractively landscaped grounds. Wine tasting - we are in the most productive wine-growing area in the world here. For those who want to be active, there are, for example, the following offers in the Limoux region: hiking, cycling/mountain biking, canoeing/kayaking, white water rafting (only in spring), swimming, canyonning, caving, fishing, paragliding, hot air ballooning, climbing, abseiling, adventure playgrounds, horse riding, archery, tennis, golf and skiing (yes really, the nearest ski lift is about an hour's drive away).

Deniz T. from 34121/Kassel
Cultural holiday
We stayed in the small but beautiful studio flat for a fortnight. You can communicate in French, German and English with the landlords, who are very friendly, informative and accommodating.
The relaxing sounds of nature are disturbed by individual passing vehicles, but from the edge of the forest you can enjoy a very beautiful wide view over several mountains from a lonely bench.
The flat was very cramped for us (2 adults + 1 toddler), but Mrs Duncan had warned us about this before we arrived. Otherwise, the facilities (pool, barbecue, kitchen, bathroom, etc.) left nothing to be desired.
During the two weeks we visited many sights in the area and also went to the Mediterranean. Just don't take the supposedly shorter route, which leads through numerous mountains and sometimes adventurously narrow roads in several hours to the Mediterranean Sea and rather pay tolls. It takes much less time and the drive is much more relaxed :-).

Klein aber fein!
Wir verbrachten im Juni 2011 zwei wunderschöne Wochen im "Studio". Die Einrichtung ist pfiffig, alles notwendige vorhanden. Das Bett ist super (keine weiche, ausgeleierte Matratzenmulde oder so...)! Der Pool hat uns nach unseren Besichtigungen an heißen Tagen wieder aufs Pferd geholfen. Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett, freundlich und hilfsbereit. Kurzum, wir haben uns rundherum wohl gefühlt.
recommend for: adventure and experience, cultural and sightseeing holiday
Vicinity of the holiday home: Schöne, ruhige Lage: Entspannung pur.
free time activities: Man muß mobil sein, aber dann gibt es viel zu entdecken.
shopping facilities: In Limoux (nur ca. 8km weg) ist alles vorhanden, was man braucht...

My girlfriend and I enjoyed a fantastic week in the studio apartment. The apartment was a perfect size for us and contained all the facilities we needed. It was set in beautiful grounds and the hosts were wonderfully attentive and friendly.
All in all a perfect stay
