About this property

Gite with private pool in Canet, nr Narbonne, Languedoc, France

Renovated to a very high standard, The Winemaker's House sits in the grounds of a Maison D'Maitre which faces the village square in the heart of Canet d'Aude, a village situated on the border of the Minervois and Corbieres wine regions. The gite is set at the rear of an acre of park and grounds with its own private garden and has a completely separate entrance to the main (owners) house. Sitting on your sun lounger on the gite's own pool-terrace you could be forgiven for thinking you were miles from anywhere. In fact you will be 200m from the heart of the village with its shops, bar and facilities. The 12m x 4.5m heated indoor pool sits between the gite and the barns of the manor house. In the summer both ends of the pool room are opened up to the gardens. You can relax on the terrace in the sun knowing the kids wont burn while they play in the pool. Or vice-versa! Inside the gite, the rooms are light and airy with high ceilings and all mod-cons. Downstairs there is a large kitchen diner, separate lounge and a large shower / wc room. Upstairs there are 3 large bedrooms and a family bathroom with full size bath/shower. Outside the gite faces onto its own private courtyard garden with palm trees, tomato plants (help yourself) and fig trees, a large dining terrace / barbecue area, (with lighting for the late evenings) sun loungers, and pool terrace.

Comfortable and well-equipped gîte

We very much enjoyed our stay in Canet. The gîte was very comfortable, with good sized bedrooms and two modern bathrooms. We used the covered, large swimming pool most days as we are both keen swimmers - even in early October it stayed pretty warm. We also appreciated the easy access to the Canal du Midi (only 1 1/2 km) with its safe cycle tracks both towards Carcassone and Narbonne. Lots to do nearby with Narbonne and its historic centre only 20 minutes away and with good car parks in the centre. Beziers was also well worth visiting and Perpignan and Carcassone under an hour away. The owners were very discreet but also extremely helpful when needed - especially when dealing with the aftermath of a large lorry driven by a local reversing into my new car!

Wonderful!

We had a wonderful stay in Canet. On arrival Diane welcomed us and showed us around the Gite. She had very kindly left two bottles of wine chilling in the fridge and a lovely gift basket. The house was perfect for us, we felt very at home and comfortable and the garden was a massive bonus for us with two children. They loved spending lots of time out there and the pool was lovely! We would definitely visit again!

Relaxed stay

Diane is a very nice and relaxed host, which makes the house feel very private while it is actually in her family’s backyard. The kitchen is very well equipped and for a family of six it is nice to have two bathrooms. Of course the

Toller Aufenthalt!!!

Die Ankunft war problemlos, da die Vermieter zeitlich sehr flexibel waren. Der Empfang war sehr herzlich und es wurden uns alle relevanten Informationen zum Haus und Umgebung gegeben. Das Haus mit Pool war toll! Es war sehr gut ausgestattet und es Alles vorhanden, was im Urlaub in einem Ferienhaus benötigt wird. Ein Highlight war natürlich der Indoor-Pool und das große Grundstück. Die Vermieterin Diane und Ihre Familie waren sehr freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Wir würden wiederkommen.

Immer wieder gerne

Sehr nette Vermieter, alles ganz unkompliziert, viele gute Tipps für Ausflüge, Ort usw. Super überdachter Pool. Gute Ausstattung des Ferienhauses, nur der in der Anzeige aufgeführte Trockner fehlte, vielleicht war damit nur die Wäscheleine gemeint. Auch einen 2. Kühlschrank gibt es nicht. Den haben wir auch nicht vermisst, da der vorhandene Kühlschrank sehr groß ist. Insgesamt hatten wir einen tollen Urlaub bei Diane.

Eine schöne Woche

Wir haben zu sechst eine schöne Woche in diesem Ferienhaus verbracht. Das Haus ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet und gut ausgestattet. Der hintere Teil des Grundstücks steht den Mietern zur Eigennutzung zur Verfügung und bietet nette Sitzgelegenheiten. Der Pool ist durch seine schattige Innenlage wunderbar erfrischend. Diane, die Vermieterin, hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und steht bei Fragen jederzeit sehr hilfsbereit zur Verfügung. Die Umgebung bietet viele schöne Ausflugsmöglichkeiten. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und empfehlen die Unterkunft gerne weiter.

Herrlicher Platz für einen entspannten Sommerurlaub

Geräumiges und komfortables Gite an der Rückseite eines ehemaligen Herrenhauses, dass von den Vermietern bewohnt wird. Sehr großzügiges Gelände zur eigenen Nutzung mit Schatten- und Sonnenplätzen. Fantastisches grosses überdachtes Schwimmbecken, perfekt sauber und zur alleinigen Nutzung. Ruhig gelegen, aber trotzdem mitten im Ort, kleiner Supermarkt und Bäcker in 100-200 m Entfernung. Netter Kontakt zu den Vermietern. Der Ort bietet nichts Besonderes, aber gute Lage für Ausflüge nach Carcassonne, Narbonne, Beziers, zum Canal du Midi usw. Alles in allem: Sehr zu empfehlen.

Une superbe demeure de vacances

Nichée au coeur d'une région absolument splendide, la "maison du général" est idéale pour se reposer et visiter les entourages (plages, randos et inévitables châteaux cathares. Nous étions quatre amis et avons eu le sentiment que nous ne pouvions pas avoir fait meilleur choix. Un grand merci encore à Diane pour son accueil chaleureux !

Wir haben uns in dem sehr schön gestalteten Winzerhaus sehr wohl gefühlt.

Das Winzerhaus ist sehr ruhig gelegen und trotzdem mitten in einem kleinen, hübschen Dorf, in dem man alles bekommt, was man für das tägliche Leben benötigt. Es ist ein großzügiges Anwesen und wir haben das große Innenschwimmbad jeden Tag gerne genutzt. Alle interessanten Ausflugsziele sind mit dem Auto gut zu erreichen. Diane ist eine sehr hilfsbereite und freundliche Gastgeberin. Wir bedanken uns für die schönen Urlaubstage.

great stay in this lovely house

We had a great stay in this lovely house. The gite is clean, comfortable and well equipped. The "welcome provisions" of food and drink was much appreciated and thoughtful. We spent most of the time outside though, enjoying the various places to sit and relax. Our daughter loved the pool and the garden with the trampoline. There are lots of places to visit (Carcassonne, Gruissan, little villages and walks on the Canal du Midi) but it was always lovely to come back to the gite. Diane and her husband are kind and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and they made us feel very welcome. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and went home relaxed. THANK YOU DIANE!!"

About the host

Hosted by Diane Lucas

Host profile image
We moved here in 2008 on the basis that it would be an adventure but if it didn't work out, well we'd just go back to the UK. Happy to say we are still here and still enjoying it. Our kids are now proper French students (though well trained so dont worry!), our French is still not quite perfect, and the main house still needs a lot of work, but on the whole life is good.

Why they chose this property

With over 300 days of glorious sunshine per year the Aude offers a fantastic variety of activities and places to visit during your holiday;

* The beaches at Narbonne plage, Gruissan and Le Franqui

* The historic walled city of Carcassonne.

* The Roman city of Narbonne - the daily (morning) indoor market is always a favourite with food lovers

* Walks and restaurants along the Canal du Midi

* Family swimming areas in local rivers

* For older children river jumping/swimming is a must at Ribaute.

* Paint balling, canoeing (in the Orb valley) and go-karting near to the beach at Gruissan

* Water park at Narbonne Plage/Gruissan which our younger vistors always enjoy

* The medieval towns of Lagrasse and village of Minerve, Cathar castles and ancient forts.

What makes this property unique

The reason we chose this house (out of the thousands we looked at!) was that its fairly unique in having a large garden that gives a feeling of being completely secluded and peaceful and yet it is situated 200m from the centre of the village. Perfect.
