Nice area to explore
Old house, nicely done and from pictures we knew it has old deco, but unfortunately the old house and deco came with a smell as well. The house needs a desperate good deep clean and refreshing of paint in most areas. Great swimming pool, but much farther from the house than expected. The description should be more accurate. We had a small pet with us and we were told on arrival that the dog is not allowed upstairs to avoid damaging the floor boards. The host is really nice and welcoming, but I suggest that any particular rules should be made clear in the description, so that travellers are aware of these before booking.

A comfortable property with a wonderful pool and a great location. Starting to show its age and could do with updating some facilities. Would also be nice if some effort was taken to accommodate international visitors who may not be fluent in French.

OUTSTANDING!
We had trouble connecting with Sylvie upon our arrival....if you are from the states, ensure your phones will work! We did not understand that we needed to meet her at a specific time in the village at a tourism office. (The GPS doesn't match with the location and she needs to meet guests then take to the house.) The house is beautiful, roomy, we'll appointed, and everything we could want or imagine as our home-base for daily adventures to the Pyranees, the Sea, vineyards or historic sights. We loved it and Sylvie is so gracious!

Wonderful holiday house
A really lovely house adjacent to the owners country house in a picturesque part of the region - within easy reach of Carcassonne and all the local activities. Sylvie was incredibly helpful and this historic stable block is very comfortable and well appointed eg there are fans in every room. The pool is huge and you have it to yourself. Filou, the elderly Labrador, makes himself at home and gives the place a real family feel. A great base from which to explore the area and a pretty little village only a few mins away to get the morning bread. Supermarket very close by at Bram and airport only 5 mins away. Highly recommended. We were five adults but can sleep 8 comfortably.

Beautiful pool lovely location
The pool was amazing, large and plenty of natural shade most of the day with two parasols provided too. Not for diving but deep enough for us. This really made the property for us.
Montréal is a lovely village with good baker and restaurant or two and a beautiful church. Really close to Carcassonne airport and about 15 mins drive into C town centre and 20 mins to Mirepoix (not to be missed is market early Monday mornings). We found it convenient at Domaine and very secluded and quiet.
Well appointed kitchen and a good gas BBQ meant we ate in a lot with lovely local foods and supermarkets. Casti restaurant in mirepoix main square does a great sharing steak platter of 1kg grilled cote de boeuf. 2 of these fed 6 of us. Really tasty.
Only 2 loos but 4 showers and two baths. Water very hot so enough to go around.
Lots of bedroom furniture and beds were comfy but sofas a little dated and a bit uncomfortable but adequate. Huge kitchen dining table and two outside areas to dine. We ate outside several times and were visited by old Filou the dog who was very friendly. Overall a lovely farmhouse setting and plenty of space.
Sylvie was very helpful and had good English. Any little issues we had in the property were immediately attended to.
The only real gripes are the limited WiFi - it was there but you had to stand by the router to get on and it was weak at times and did t retain the password. We managed though. But don’t bring your laptop and work to Domaine de Toureille. You’re here to enjoy yourself.
We had fans in all bedrooms but with no AC it is stuffy at night.
Overall though we had a lovely stay and would recommend the area and the property.

Absolutely beautiful. Tastefully restored house.
This is a beautiful house. It's very private. Set in beautiful grounds. Very handy for Carcassonne airport. Yet peacefully tucked away down a country lane. It's attached to the owners property yet not over looked. The pool is a good size and a gorgeous setting. We were only a party of 4 so gave us loads of space. The ping pong table is very good quality and in a barn for shade. Unfortunately we weren't too lucky with the weather but that's just bad luck. There was lots to do in the area. Jean Claude met us on our arrival. He was very welcoming. Sylvie called into see us later with her very good English and made us very welcome and gave us very good advice for where to go and what to see and best days to go places. It's a stunning area. Carcassonne is a lovely place to visit. Lac de la Cavayère near Carcassonne was pretty and a nice walk around the whole lake (It's a 5km circuit). There are lovely markets in the area and a week wasn't long enough to do the area justice. Thank you Sylvie, lovely host. Filou and Itoun (apologies if spelt wrongly), the dogs were very sweet and wandered in and out. The kids loved them being around, like a home from home for us.

Remote Mansion perfect for relaxing
We've stayed with 8 friends in the house and had a really great time. The only room for improvement would be that the upper floor is getting really hot during summer, even with Sylvies cooling instruction, but I guess you can't avoid that during summer in France. Another point is that we had some really large spiders and centipede in the house, but I guess that's normal on the countryside as well. Especially since it's recommended to open the windows during the night for that cooling effect. Maybe a mosquito net in front of the windows could help. But as I already said we had a great time at Sylvies and those are just very small points for improvement. The amazing pool makes up ten time for it.
And it should be said, that Sylvies house is right next to it. So it is not completely solitary.

Wunderschönes Haus in Garten mit altem Baumbestand!
Das Haus ist sehr schön eingerichtet, die Küche sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Garten ist parkähnlich: viel Platz in ungestörter Natur. Die Vermieterin ist freundlich, hilfsbereit und gibt zahlreiche Empfehlungen für Ausflüge, Restaurantbesuche und Sehenswürdigkeiten. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und uns prima erholt. Dazu trägt auch der große Pool bei, von dem man einen schönen Ausblick auf die Landschaft hat. Alles ist sehr gepflegt. Vielen herzlichen Dank an die Vermieterin!

Court séjour en pays cathare
Malgré le mauvais temps, la maison est bien située et nous a permis de visiter les joyaux de la région : de mirepoix à Carcassonne, et de castelnaudary au gouffre de cabrespine grace aux conseils de Sylvie.
Superbe feu pour se réchauffer le soir. Nous aurions aimé un tout petit peu plus de réseau pour faire les réservations en ligne pour le gouffre notamment mais les ados on fait leur sevrage !

La maison était impeccable, parfaitement aménagée et fonctionnelle. Sylvie l’hôte est très sympa et disponible. Seul petit « bémol », c’est le check out à 9h, un peu tôt quand le check-in est à 17h. Nous recommandons fortement cette location, idéalement située, au coeur d’un écrin de verdure, au calme. Nous avons passé de superbes vacances!

Op zoek naar een deugddoende vakantie in het land van de Katharen ?
Ideaal voor personen die zoeken naar een vakantiewoning met rustige ligging. Goed uitgeruste/ingerichte authentieke vakantiewoning (geen luxe, maar alles is in orde en netjes). Vriendelijke eigenares met een aangename babbel. De woning paalt aan deze van eigenares, maar privacy is door afscheiding met natuurlijke elementen in de tuin gegarandeerd en wordt ook gerespecteerd. In een straal van ca. 60 km vind je ook alle belangrijke Katharensites.
