About this country house rental
Would you like to spend a few days at the heart of our wine estate? We welcome you to stay with your family or friends, for special events or just to relax in the peace and quiet of this spacious, renovated former sheepfold, with no neighbours and far from the constraints of the city!
Set in 5 hectares of idyllic countryside, this farmhouse offers rooms decorated with taste and simplicity, all in the atmosphere of a country house, with the rural charm that our customers appreciate so much!
Relax and let yourself be tempted by :
our table d'hôtes, prepared with passion by Sophie, a specialist in natural cuisine :
- a market cuisine based on local, fresh and above all organic produce. You can find examples of her seasonal dishes on her page @latabledesophie. Vegetarian and vegan on request!
- a jacuzzi for your exclusive use, a wood-heated sauna and a large swimming pool overlooking the wine estate,
- yoga classes, to be booked with our partners,
- plenty of rooms to recharge your batteries, alone or with friends, in a cosy atmosphere.

The area around the estate is ideal for visiting historical and cultural sites such as the Cité de Carcassonne and the Cathar castles, the nearest of which is 45 minutes away. The first step on this journey of discovery will be from the terrace, with its uninterrupted view of the picturesque village of Roquetaillade and its 15th-century château!

Summary of reviewsFantastic stay at Borde Longue! Enjoyed the spacious property, attentive host, informative wine tasting, and delightful pool area. Perfect for families and offers plenty of activities. Highly recommended!

To be accurate, there are a least three properties on this site, and the large house we stayed in can be subdivided. We rented the large house of seven bedrooms.
Overall we had a very pleasant stay. You are on a working vineyard and the host Jean-Louis produces excellent wine.
There were some slight issues during our stay that in the main were resolved by Jean-Louis on the day. However it is clear that his 'full time' job is the vineyard and I think management of the house suffers as a result. I think it would benefit from extra cleaners on changeover day and an ongoing programme of maintenance undertaken by a dedicated handyman.
The pool area is a case in point. The pool itself was lovely, but the decking area around it was worn with some protruding screw heads and coach bolts that would easily catch your toes. The ones we pointed out were fixed but further work will be needed shortly.
The pictures give a good perspective of the size of the place, but they appear quite old.
This is a nice house, situated in beautiful countryside, it just needs a little more effort put into it to elevate it into an amazing place to stay.

We had a fantastic holiday at Borde Longue. The property works really well for a large family group although the shared upstairs space was not really used as we were outside most of the time.
Our host was attentive despite having a lot to do around the vineyard. The wine tasting we were invited to was informative and a lot of fun.
The pool and pool area was a delight and kept the children occupied during what was one of the hottest weeks of the summer.
The bedrooms on one side were very hot and care had to be taken to keep them comfortable - the additional fans that were provided were a necessity.
Plenty other things to do on the property and in the vineyard including walks and runs.
The local area also offered trips and visits which went down well with both adults and children.
Overall and excellent family holiday!

Nous avons séjourné au domaine dans le cadre d'une retraite spirituelle (méditation/soins énergétiques). Nous pensions être isolés, au calme, dans la nature mais avons été surpris de constater qu'une famille vivait dans un pavillon en face, qu'il y avait d'autres gites aux alentours (les autres occupants sont passés dans l'espace qui nous était réservé alors que nous étions à table) et du passage très fréquent (livreur ou clients cherchant le propriétaire/les autres gites).
Il serait propice d'installer des panneaux indicateurs afin de mieux orienter les passages et préserver ainsi les espaces et l'intimité.
Les extérieurs auraient aussi besoin d'être mieux entretenus : tonte, nettoyage pool house (les chaises sont toutes très usées) et dépoussiérage de l'autre abri avec les petits sofas. Le jacuzzi est sale, il y a beaucoup de sable au fond.
La maison est confortable. La grande pièce à l'étage nous a permis de nous réunir et de vivre nos pratiques dans de bonnes conditions.
Le véritable plus a été de bénéficier de la prestation de la traiteur qui nous a cuisiné d'excellents plats tous les jours. Sophie est une cuisinière passionnée, très aimable, souriante. Elle nous a régalé et a contribué à la réussite de cette retraite.
Nous la recommandons vivement pour vos vacances là-bas.

Cadre magnifique. Maison splendide mais dès la visite nous faisons connaissance avec la poussière et les toiles d'araignées....
La grandeur de la maison est apprécié pour préserver l'intimité de chacun. L'extérieur avec ses terrasses et l'espace piscine est très agréable. Problème de piscine réglé rapidement par le fils denoy très sympa. Étions contents de l'avoir comme interlocuteur.
Matériel très très vieillissant.
Une semaine malgré tout forte agréable par l'ambiance du groupe.
Un final irréaliste par le réveil le jour du depart à 8h par les femmes de ménage restées dans nos pattes jusqu'à 10h.
Chèque de caution jamais renvoyé .....
