Perfectly located to the explore the Old City and within walking distance of the Main Train Station. Wonderfully quiet spot to return to after a day out and about.
This was the perfect beautiful and quiet apartment centrally located to the old city. The old city was surprisingly fun to walk around and beautifully restored along with wonderful food especially cassoulet, So we were very happy to have this location and highly recommend it to explore this gorgeous area. Also the hosts were perfect And everything we needed was there.
Gîte idéalement situé au pied de la cité, dans une voie sans issue, bordée par une pinède, dans un calme absolu.
Des hôtes discrets mais à l'écoute. On y retournerait avec plaisir.
Lovely property on island between the two cities, the property has a lovely garden & pool. Only a short walk to either the citadel or the Bastide with bars & restaurants close by.
Emplacement impeccable à 10 minutes à pied de la cité. Logement agréable et fonctionnel. Idéal pour une famille de 4. Propriétaires attentionnés et bienveillant.
Situation idéale au pieds des remparts, dans un cadre verdoyant.
Très bon contact avec Emmanuelle
Logement très propre, bien équipé.
A recommander vivement
Nette Vermieterin. Tolle ruhige Lage mit großem Garten und Pool. Zentral gelegen und trotzdem naturnah an der Aude und Park. Sehr empfehlenswert. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen.
A fabulous property in a perfect location for exploring Carcassonne. This house is within walking distance of the old and new cities. Spotlessly clean and equipped with everything you will need. Perfect for exploring Canal Midi on bikes. Owners are extremely helpful. Would definitely recommend.
Logement spacieux pour 2. Idéalement placé, aux pieds de la cité et tout près de la ville. Très calme, avec tout le confort. L'hôte est très agréable et disponible.
Avec nos 2 loulous de 3 et 6 ans nous avons séjourné 1 semaine et grâce à l'emplacement de l'hébergement (au pied des remparts), nous avons pu visiter à pied Carcassonne. Nous avons bien profité de la région également. Le gîte est fonctionnel, très confortable et reposant. Merci à Emmanuelle pour son hospitalité. Nous recommandons chaudement cet endroit !
Nous avons passez un agréable séjour où Toutes les conditions étaient réunies!
Soleil piscine et balade au bord de l’Aude et autour de l’imposante cité médiévale.
Je recommande cette endroit calme et reposant.

Really enjoyed it.
Lovely little city to explore. Accommodation was great, Very spacious. Apartment attached to the owners house but you wouldn’t know it, very private. Emmanuel was kind enough to pick us up and drop us at the airport. Would stay again. Five stars.

We ( a couple of 30 years...
We ( a couple of 30 years old) had an excellent stay at the Vavdin house at Carcasonne. The rooms were charming, with high quality materials and all the equipment and space needed. The swimming pool was also excellent, big enough to do laps. The swimming pool is also located behind the house and surrounded by trees, which gives good privacy. The rooms also had a seperate terrasse with comfortable chairs. The location is good, just next to a park (to go and play petanque) and at 5min. walk to the citadel of Carcasonne. The seaside is at a 30min. drive, and an excursion to Spain is at just 1 hour (Barcelone). The family welcomed us with open arms, without introduing to much. Really great people. Thank you! We just loved it, and won't think twice to come back!
