Lovely apartment in central carcassone. Everything was amazing and a lovely area to sit out. Loads of facilities, and TV facilities great...not least as our weather was a bit rainy so gave us a choice at night. Very quiet

Wonderful place

A beautiful and unique place to stay right in the middle of the city. Lots of space, very clean, everything that you could need or want. A lovely outdoor space, great window in the living room to watch the happenings of the city and a very responsive and helpful host. Highly recommend.

This is a lovely property with a courtyard in a perfect location for exploring within the walls of Carcassonne. The property has all the facilities you could need even though we didn’t make use of them. Silvia was great with her communication and responded quickly to any queries.The only downside was something beyond anyone’s control - the heat! Unfortunately the property does not come with air conditioning and this is clearly stated so didn’t come as a surprise. We had the mobile air conditioning unit and the two fans provided (as well as our own hand held fans) in the bedroom and were still uncomfortably hot at night and barely slept. I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking to experience a stay within the citadel - just maybe not at the height of summer!

Very nice house! Very clean. With the widows closed it is quiet, but quite loud on the street side all day and night if they are open. It could use some ceiling fans for the hot summer nights. More towels would be nice, as well. Overall met all of our needs with the washing machine helping with the towel shortage. There is not a clothes dryer, but a drying rack is provided. Really cute place to stay within the medieval city of Carcassonne!

Amazing

I cant give this property enough credit. It was amazing in everyway. The bedrooms were large and bathroom modern and comfortable. The downstairs lounge was very big and kitchen ideal. What was special was the outside courtyard for chilling out. I cant thank the host sylvia enough, i had lost my watch before we left for the airport. Sylvia found it and actually got it to me in the airport as we were boarding. No idea how she did but cant thank her enough. Perfect apt right in the centre of the medieval city. Magical.

Wow! What a great place!

I’ve stayed at quite a few BnB’s and this one was fantastic. Sylvia was extremely quick to communicate, efficient and helpful. Sylvia’s place looks better than the photos. You are very close to the centre of the medieval town, within the old walls. The location is fantastic with am amazing bakery across the street, and numerous restaurants nearby. Sylvia’s place was extremely clean and well equipped. There was more than enough room. The kitchen was well equipped, although we didn’t do any cooking. The bedrooms are large and the main bathroom is large as well. The water pressure is excellent and there is plenty of hot water. Check-in was extremely easy, and un-like some of the other BnB’s in France and Spain, Sylvia gave us check in instructions well before we arrived, rather than just a few minutes prior or after check in time, which seems to becoming more common. I cannot say enough good things about this place. We would definitely return and recommend Sylvia’s place to others.

Excellent communication with Sylvie. The position of property was ideal, right in the Centre of old part of city with an excellent Boulangerie right opposite. It was very warm but a cool breeze throughout our stay helped. Loads of good restaurants within few minutes.

A superb location and great property for any length of holiday

We had a fantastic time staying at Sylvia’s property. We’ve stayed in Carcassonne several times, but this the first inside the Ramparts. So convenient, we had everything we needed close by and also in the property. A great host who was so helpful, a great place and a great location. Thanks again!

Sylvia, our host was super. She welcomed us with goodies and great recommendations. The gite was very comfortable and when it got hot, the enclosed patio garden was always cool. This stay was like none other in a medieval city. Thanks, LaDawn

Right in the heart of the medieval city

We enjoyed our stay here at Carcassonne. The gite is very spacious and well-equipped. I especially enjoyed being able to go out and stroll the empty streets and walls in the early mornings before the tourist crowds arrived. Sylvie made the process very easy for us and responded quickly with communication. Merci beaucoup!

Beautiful Apartment in the best location within Carcassonne walls!!

There are very few places to stay within the walls of this fantastic city, so if you find this apartment available, I would book it! It is really is in the most perfect spot for exploring the walled city and right opposite the 5 star Hotel de la Cite if you are feeling in the mood to be pampered. Really well equipped kitchen and lovely bistros literally right on your doorstep if you don't want to cook! We were 4 adults and were very comfortable in the very clean, mix of ancient and modern apartment. Sylvie, our host, was very helpful and a pleasure to deal with. We can't recommend this place highly enough and will definitely be returning!!

Wonderful experience!

We stayed at Sylivie's Gite for 4 days/3 nights in July. The Gite was spacious, well organized, clean, and very nice. We had everything we needed (minus a few towels, but it was no problem). The Gite is located right in the heart of the Medieval City, so we were always only a few steps away from the action. We also ventured outside the city one day, and the parking is very convenient. We had an amazing time and thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The only negatives we encountered had nothing to do with the Gite itself, but circumstance...such as the heat! It was very hot while we were there. We would stay here again, for sure. Thank you Sylvie!

Nice apartment

The beds were really comfortable and shower was great. Kitchen seemed have a good selection of things though we didn’t do any cooking. You need to bring in any food if you are not eating out. There are no supermarkets etc within the grounds. The bakery across the street is fabulous and does good coffee. Great location and also great to be there outside tourist hours. The apartment would be really hot in summer. Only one complaint. Our first night was hot and we put on the portable air con. It was next to useless unless you stood in front of it. There were no instructions so maybe we didn’t use it correctly.

We had a fantastic fortnight’s stay in Sylvie’s wonderful gîte. The location is sensational - right in the heart of the medieval city. It felt a privilege to be there, it’s so special. Check-in could not be easier - a number code, provided in advance. Also good instructions for where to park the car (there’s a permit for free parking and we never struggled to get a spot even in August).The gîte was clean, well furnished and equipped and very comfortable (inc the beds!). Excellent washing machine, dishwasher and hob. The open plan living area is a generous size and allowed us to relax in comfort.Worth noting that It was boiling hot whilst we were there, but we were able to regulate the temperature pretty well with the excellent fans and using the window shuttersThere’s an incredible bakery across the street - they also have a garden in which you can eat their lovely pastries and coffee. Lots of wonderful places to eat within a very short walk. We’d be delighted to return one day! Not least also because Sylvie is so lovely, helpful and accommodating.

The property was gorgeous, clean and right in the heart of the medieval city which was perfect for our festival in the Chateau. The host was so helpful and friendly, will be back if she will have us. :)

Stylish apartment in atmospheric location

This is a well-appointed apartment inside the bustling medieval citadel. The hosts are welcoming and helpful. The only downside, for what is a self-catering holiday, is that vehicular access is still quite a way from the gîte, so be prepared to carry food and luggage a few hundred yards from the car park. Alternatively plan to eat out every night in the many restaurants within the citadel. Overall we had a really enjoyable week soaking up the history of Carcassonne and the surrounding Cathar region.

Un séjour très agréable au coeur de la cité.

Nous venons de passer une semaine très agréable dans le logement de Sylvia, situé au coeur de la belle cité de Carcasonne.. Le logement est en tous points conforme à la description. Bâtisse de 400 ans mise aux normes de confort moderne et effectué avec beaucoup de goût. On se laisse envoûter par la magie du lieu, au soleil couchant a 2 pas de la cathédrale et du château comtal.(les levées de jour ne sont pas mal non plus, on a la cité pour soi avant l'arrivée des touristes). Sans oublier les besoins plus terre à terre, à combler par un choix de restaurants aussi variés que bons. Bref un séjour recommandé. Anne Marie Girault
