This is a beautiful house with exceptionally nice, clean, and modern bathrooms and kitchen. My 7 year old daughter loved the pool! The outdoor furniture is fantastic and there are small pears all over the place from the pear tree in the back yard...very beautiful. The owner was reliable and friendly in all our online dealings, and once we were there we were taken care of by a lady names Jane. The vrbo profile/pictures are an accurate depiction of the house, although it should be corrected to reflect that there is no AC. This wasn’t a problem for us as the stone walls of the house kept it relatively cool at night even in mid-July, although the 2 bedrooms on the 3rd level needed the fans we were provided more than the others did.
There are many beautiful towns nearby that have market days, but make sure to adjust to French time, as they tend to close around noon or 1pm.
We loved the quaintness of this village. It has a small bar and a small bakery a 2-3 mins walk away. We’d go there in the morning right as the pain au chocolat had just come out of the oven!
We would definitely come back as this house is beautiful and comfortable and this part of France is gorgeous and so rich in history.
Thanks Alma!

This is our second stay in this wonderful house . We loved it so much after our first stay that we choose to honeymoon here. The house itself is what dreams are made off - we choose the big bedroom with free standing bath to stay in and was idyllic. We stayed for a week and used the house as abase to easily travel to many of the nearby towns eg carcasonne , mirepoix, trebes , la lac etc : we also drove over to Barcelona for the day and visited Cadaques on the way back the following day - both amazing places and within easy distance.
The property itself is very well equipped . The swimming pool is a must in the scorching heat and allowed for several lazy days sunbathing , eating and drinking in peaceful surroundings . The local boulongerie sells amazing products and Henris bar is a must visit. The welcome was fabulous and ambience amazing . A real experience of life in France . Numerous restaurants are within a short car drive and the food is exquisite - the seafood restaurant at the canal midi was fantastic as was the food at chateau de pennautier . Both highly recommended. We are planning our next visit and considering staying here as part of a ski holiday as Andorra is approx an hour away .
Quite simply we love it and would highly recommend it .

We had a wonderful time at Tournesol, providing a complete recharge, which was helped along by the surrounding views, countryside, village and not to mention the local wine, village markets and many historical sites. The house was so inviting, with large rooms, modern-french decor and fantastic baths, together with a great outdoor eating and pool area - just wonderful on warm, star covered evenings. We look forward to returning one day!!

We had a wonderful holiday in this beautifully converted property, The adults enjoyed the very well equipped kitchen and attention to design detail. The children loved the swimming pool and the nearby lakes. The village is pretty and the entire stay was fun and relaxing. Strongly recommended for family groups.
