Loved the location, the accommodation, Iiola the hostess and especially the fun wine tasting evening with Wendy. Had a mixture of days by the pool and day trips for the best of holidays. Good family holiday spot. Would definitely go back. Chris, Oxford More

We were here a year ago and decided that we would like to return. It is a lovely place: beautiful house between vineyards only 1.2 km from the silent village Laure Minervois. There are 3 gites and 3 B&B. This time we were in gite Tulip - the middle size - that occured big and comfortable for us: parents with... More

Totally fab place in a fab area of Minervois. Accomodation is made up of 3 gites in a converted barn with an amazing shaded BBQ area for lunch and dinner. Great for those 30 degree days!!! Iola, the perfect host, also accomodates 3 B&B room within the large house. My parents stayed there for the 2 weeks and loved the... More

Just back from a fabulous family break in one of the Gites called Sunflower..Unlucky with the weather but loved the region, hired a car and visited lots of lovely villages in the area. Lovely pool area and lots of space for the children to run about - Iola was so friendly and could not have been more welcoming to us... More

I can imagine it would have been perfect sitting out in the sunshine having breakfast but it wasn't to be. We did go to the local boulangerie every day and buy delicious fresh croissants etc. What a... More

We stayed in one of the three gites. The Owner, Iola, was very pleasant and approachable. The location was excellent as we just wanted a quiet, beautiful spot to chill out and relax in. The Gite was clean and comfortable, and the outside area (under cover) was a good place to be in the evenings - and when we socialised... More

This was our second stay with Iola, the first back in 2007. This is a little piece of paradise in the most idyllic secluded location, but only a few minutes drive to the local village, 20 or so minutes to Trebes and only slighty further to the lovely medieval walled city of Carcassonne. A car is essential and the location... More
