About this cottage rental
Whether it's your base for exploring the ruins of Cathar Castles, walking through beautiful nature, strolling the battlements of the medieval La Cité of Carcassonne, cruising along the Canal du Midi on a barge or sampling the beautiful wines of the region – the Cathar Cottage is your perfect home away from home!
The Cottage is located in the village of Pennautier which is found 5 minutes drive North of beautiful Carcassonne. Pennautier has been known as such since 1781, however its history wends it's way back through the Middle Ages and Roman Occupation into pre-history.
The Cathar Cottage is an attached village house on 3 floors. The ground floor consists of the entrance, kitchen and dining area, along with a full bathroom. The first floor comprises the Master Bedroom, Sitting Room, Terrace and second toilet. The second bedroom is contained on the second floor - please note there are fairly steep steps to the second floor which would not be suitable for older persons or very young children. The Cottage has free Wi-Fi.
Pennautier has all the basic services within walking distance, including a newsagent, grocery store, bakeries, butcher, cafe, pizza restaurant, pharmacy, and doctor. The Chateau de Pennautier is on the edge of the village (2 min walk from the Cottage) and dates back to 1620 - a wonderful place to engage in a bit of 'wine tourism'!. Parking is available within meters of the house.

The owners were very communicative and helpful. It was easy to reach them and get suggestions and help. This was a cozy home and a highlight of our trip.

Cathar Cottage is a sweet and cosy little home, tucked up a narrow winding lane. It is conveniently close to Carcassonne, but far enough away to be peaceful. Our time was measured out by nearby church bells ringing the hours. Our hosts communicated regularly from when we booked, offering suggestions and advice. They ensured there were provisions on hand, in case of holiday shop closures, as well as heating the place before we arrived. A wonderful home with fabulous hosts.

overall we enjoyed our holiday in pennautier,but only one bed made up and I didn't want to share with my daughter, we left message with local agents but never received a reply. we wanted to use public transport but would advise visitors to use own transport. I think maybe we were a little early in the season, and it was a local holiday in this area. small supermarket open when we arrived on Saturday 27th april ,were told they would be open again on Monday but did not open again until Thursday, the rustique bar/café only did food if they had enough customers, but were very helpful friendly. great meal at winery restaurant. did lots of walking. Aragon worth a visit. thankyou for the wine which we enjoyed, another reason to drive, would have liked to bring some home with us. Helen
