Farmhouse with Four Gites and Pool near Mirepoix, Midi-Pyrenees
We have four individual self-catering cottages (gîtes), two with two bedrooms, one with three bedrooms, and one with four bedrooms. The gîtes are set with our home in five acres of the Pyrénéan foothills, bordered by a pretty stream, and benefit from our 10x5m pool, table tennis, table-football, boule court, free wi-fi etc.
Burgundy is an individual villa sleeping 6 people with all rooms arranged on one level. Burgundy benefits from a private South-facing terrace and barbecue for alfresco dining.
The gite consists of:
- A large fully-fitted kitchen (with dishwasher and washing machine). The patio windows from the kitchen lead out to the terrace and have electric shutters (to keep the gîte cool in Summer). Adjoining the kitchen is:
- The large lounge/dining room with a log-burning stove and superb views - down the valley to the West, and through the village to the Pyrenees in the South. The lounge also has patio windows leading on to the terrace, a separate dining area, and a large picture window overlooking the gardens and stream.
- One double bedroom
- Two twin bedrooms
- Two fully tiled bathrooms, one with a twin washbasin vanity unit, shower, bath, and WC, the second with a shower, washbasin and WC.
- Table tennis, table football, giant connect 4 in the covered games barn
- Giant chess set
- Boule / pétanque court
- Badminton
- Sand pit for smaller children
- Short nature walk around the land and along the stream
We are on the edge of a pretty village, ten minutes from the medieval town of Mirepoix, with its restaurants, cafes, weekly market and summer festivals. Carcassonne, the 3rd most popular tourist attraction in France, is 30 minutes. Our regional leisure lake Lac de Montbel, with 1500 acres of water, beach and restaurant, is ten minutes away. The Mediterranean beaches are one hours drive. The extensive vineyards of the Languedoc are within 30 minutes. Extensive walking, cycling and angling, boating, and horse riding is available 'on the doorstep' in the Pyrenees and the Medieval Chateaux of the Cathars surround the area - Montsegur, the 'last stronghold' is 20 minutes away.
The medieval town of Mirepoix is a tourist gem in the area and we are lucky to be so close. Mirepoix has a 13th century cathedral (with the second widest nave in Europe!), and a timbered 'bastide' square around which there are bars, cafes, restaurants (there are over 20 in the town), boutique shops and the essentials of bakers, butchers, fishmonger and so on. The town has an excellent weekly market on a Monday morning and many events taking place during the summer. It also has a SuperU supermarket and Aldi with everything you need.
We are 10 minutes drive from the largest inland lake in the South West of France - Lac de Montbel is a 1500 acre man-made reservoir created in the 1980's to hold water for refilling the Canal du Midi. The lake provides sheltered and safe conditions for all types of beach activity, it has several beaches, one of which has a lakeside brasserie and a lifeguard in attendance during the Summer. Lac de Montbel also offers a full range of watersports. We are an hour from the Mediterranean beaches.
Our village nestles in the foothills of the Pyrenees. 400m above sea level, but with the 3000m peaks 20 mins drive away.
Every active sport you can think of is on the doorstep, from paragliding to hill walking via watersports. The Tour de France passes close by and the area is a favourite for cyclists and mountain bikers. We are an hour from the Mediterranean beaches, and enjoy a mild climate.
For those that prefer a gentler pace, the roads are quiet and the scenery is spectacular - you can tour the mountains from the comfort of the driving seat! We have many driving and walking tours; vineyards to visit; weekly markets; wildlife and wild flowers (esp. the orchids in spring / early summer).
For foodies, Mirepoix (at 10mins) has over 20 restaurants to suit all tastes.
