Traditional Stone Villa with Magnificent Views
Villa La Cascade is a charming all en-suite cut stone villa located in the beautiful Languedoc region in the South of France. The villa is one of a small group of cut stone houses built in the traditional style around a lovely courtyard overlooking the pretty village of Durban and its medieval castle.
Enjoying a peaceful private garden this lovely house sleeps 6 adults in 3 en-suite double bedrooms with stunning views over the unspoilt countryside. Complete with private pool and magnificent secluded deck, Villa La Cascade is the perfect location for an idyllic holiday in this still undiscovered yet easily accessible part of Mediterranean France. Beautifully appointed to the highest standards and fully equipped with a every modern convenience, this is a perfect home from home in which to enjoy the unique pace and ambience of Languedoc.
A short drive from airports at Carcassonne, Perpignan, Toulouse and Montpellier, the surrounding area has a wealth of attractions. Located in the heart of the Corbieres, Villa La Cascade overlooks a range of beautiful hills that stretch north of the Spanish border and sweep inland from the Mediterranean. This is an area steeped in history and blessed with an almost perfect climate. Enjoying over 300 days of sunshine annually, the location benefits from long hot summers and brief, mild winters. Vineyards, ancient monasteries and medieval castles punctuate the landscape whilst the golden beaches of the Mediterranean are just a short drive away.
Villa La Cascade is one of a small number of houses recently completed overlooking the old village of Durban. The village is a typically southern French affair, with a café, supermarket, bank and pharmacy, and of course the local cave cooperative.
Accommodation
On the ground floor the villa comprises
- an entrance hall, fully equipped kitchen, sitting room, cellar, guest WC and two en-suite double bedrooms.
- The sitting room opens out onto a magnificent teak deck that surrounds the swimming pool.
- Adjacent is an outdoor kitchen complete with built in barbeque – just perfect for lazy wining and dining in the gorgeous surroundings.
At the far side of the pool area there is a table and chairs with wonderful views over the valley and vineyards below.
The upper floor consists of
- a further double bedroom again with en-suite shower room.
This is Cathar country – one of the most inspiring and dramatic landscapes in Europe. Located in the heart of the picturesque Corbieres hills, Villa La Cascade is just perfect for either an activity packed holiday or a relaxing getaway. Within a short distance there are the ancient monasteries at Lagrasse and Fontfroide, medieval castles at Queribus and Peyreprtuse, the historic walled city of Carcassonne and the beautiful Canal du Midi meandering through the countryside north of the hills. Nearby, the thriving market towns of Narbonne and Beziers provide a wide range of shops and services, whilst the city of Perpignan offers a vibrant mix of influences – more Catalan than French in atmosphere.
- Swimming and wind-surfing are available in the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean at Cap Leucate, just 30 minutes away.
- The snowy peaks of the Pyrenees rise dramatically the south and a range of winter sports activities are available in ski resorts only a 2 hour drive from the villa.
- Golf, tennis, horse-riding and sailing are all within easy reach and the hills are criss-crossed by lovely walks for every level, all with magnificent views to the foothills of the Pyrenees.
- The African Reserve at Sigean is one of the most highly rated wildlife parks in Europe and is a 25 minute drive.
- For lovers of food and wine, there is a wide choice from local restaurants providing great food at reasonable prices to Michelin starred restaurants only a few minutes from the village. The rising star of Languedoc wine is the highlight for many visitors, numerous Chateau providing ample opportunities for degustation and purchase at value for money prices that barely do justice to the exceptional quality to be found in the region.
For us, this combination of holiday choices is why we love the area so much. Mix it with the gorgeous climate, the lovely house and the uniquely relaxed pace of life to be found in the South of France and you have all the ingredients for the perfect holiday.
