3 Spacious Luxury Gites & Pool minutes from Carcassonne
Domaine de Curé has a long history dating back to 1800, with extensions made in 1825. Early records show that it was once a horse-breeding estate before becoming a winery sometime in the late 1800s. And even though wine is no longer produced at the domaine itself, the neighboring farmers continue to grow and pick the grapes in the surrounding vineyards that were once a part of the estate to make the regional Cabardes wine.
Today, part of the building, set in a one hectare estate rich with numerous species of trees, has been entirely renovated into 3 spacious gîtes (self-catering holiday homes) of the highest standards. A private swimming pool provides views of vineyards and the Pyrenees Mountains.
The quality of furnishings and fittings is of the highest standard thus providing you with every comfort for your stay with us.
The property lies in the middle of vineyards and is situated 1km from the village of Conques-sur-Orbiel and 10 kms north of Carcassonne in the Aude region of Languedoc Roussillon.
