With three beautifully designed en-suite bedrooms, a fabulous French kitchen, lovely sitting room area and an amazing pool and garden this is a very stylish holiday choice.
Surrounded by castles, vineyards, award winning restaurants and pretty villages - Villa La Cascade is perfect for an activity packed holiday or a quiet hideaway in which to put your feet up!
Exceptional Views!
This is the ideal location for a relaxing holiday - with genuinely exceptional views over the Corbieres hills and within walking distance of the pretty village of Durban Corbieres.
Imagine waking up to beautiful views and planning the day ahead! A stroll for some croissants and maybe a cafe au lait in the local cafe. Breakfast looking out over the lovely garden or perhaps an early morning dip in the private pool?
Then agreeing an itinerary for the day - maybe an easy drive to the historic town of Narbonne, steeped in history complete with one of Frances best food markets.
Or a visit to one of the amazing medieval Cathar castles in the locality.
Food & Wine on the Doorstep
For wine lovers what about a tour and tasting in one of the many Languedoc vineyards? - there's a fabulous range within minutes. Meanwhile the beach at Le Franqui and the blue Mediterranean is less than half an hour away.
Alternatively, you may wish to just simply stay put for the day and head out later instead- perhaps dinner in a local restaurant - or for a treat - the amazing Michelin Starred Restaurant Giles Goujon in the adjacent village of Fontjoncouse?
Gorgeous Garden
If chilling out is your thing, why not relax in the garden with a book and a drink and consider a poolside barbecue later that evening.
With a lovely pool to cool down in and secluded seating areas - you may find the garden one of the nicest aspects of your holiday...
The choice is yours!
This is our ‘home from home’ in France and we invite you to see why Languedoc is such a special place. We know and love the area and we would be delighted to help you plan your holiday in France.
Local Area
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 Languedoc holiday or a relaxing getaway.
Within a short distance of our Languedoc holiday villa there are the ancient monasteries at Lagrasse and Fontfroide (pictured above), medieval Cathar castles at Queribus and Peyrepertuse, the walled city of Carcassonne and the beautiful Canal du Midi meandering through the countryside north of the hills. The thriving Languedoc towns of Narbonne and Beziers are a short drive from the villa with a wide range of shops and services, whilst the city Perpignan offers a vibrant mix of influences that often appear more Catalan than French in many respects.
Swimming and wind-surfing are available in the Mediterranean at Cap Leucate, just 30 minutes from the villa. The snowy peaks of the Pyrenees rise to the south and winter sports are available only a 2-hour drive away in resorts such as Les Angles and Font Romeu. Golf, tennis, horse-riding and sailing are within easy reach and the hills of Languedoc are criss-crossed by walks for every level, all with magnificent views to the foothills of the Pyrenees.
