About this house rental

La Maison Des Vignes (The House of Vines) sits in the heart of the lovely village of Tourouzelle, in the sunny Occitanie area of the South of France midway between the beaches of the Mediterranean and the medieval city of Carcassonne.

Situated in the Minervois and bordering the Corbiere wine regions, this former vigneron estate dates back to the 1600s and is built in the traditional stone typical of the region.

The architect-designed, renovated barn conversions have created 3 spacious gites (with Air Conditioning) which have all the character of the old stone walls, high ceilings and original wooden beams, combined with all the comforts and mod cons that will make your stay here all the more pleasurable.


Gite Lavande sleeps 6 people in 3 bedrooms and has 2 well-equipped bathrooms, a private terrace and weber gas barbeque. There is also a heated swimming pool in the landscaped, walled gardens.

Whether you wish to soak up the sunshine by the pool or the beach, enjoy the fabulous food and wine of the area, play golf, cycle or walk, you are sure to discover your joie de vivre at La Maison Des Vignes.

Please contact us for further details, including our 3D tour of the pool and gites

Access to the gite is via stairs to the large terrace that overlooks the walled gardens. The terrace is set up for outdoor dining & has a Weber gas BBQ. The spacious lounge, dining and kitchen area has wooden floors & high vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. There is a large sofa, seating area, an indoor dining area and a fully equipped kitchen.

Bedroom 1 has a king-size bed and wardrobe, as well as large French windows that provide access directly onto the private terrace. Bedroom 2 has a king-size bed (the room can be made up with 2 single beds), chest of drawers and wardrobe. Both of these bedrooms have ensuite shower rooms with walk in shower, toilet and sink.

The mezzanine level has a large galleried landing, which overlooks the living area with sofa. Bedroom 3 has a high sloping ceiling with exposed beams, a king-size bed (the room can be made up with 2 single beds), table d’appoint and wardrobe. There is also a bathroom on this level.

We have recently returned from a lovely week in Tourouzelle. The location was really good, with so much to offer in the area to keep all members of the family happy. We enjoyed spending time by the pool and visiting the coast (Leucate Plage was lovely), walking in the hills (the four castles walk at Lastours highly recommended) and zip-wiring across the lake near Carcassone (the longest zip-wiring course we have done, and excellent value for money). We were really pleased to find such a good selection of bikes in the shed, and were able to find the right size bikes for the whole family (including 2 boys aged 11 and 8) to cycle to Homps and further on to the local lake. Not far away there is a great company called Eaurizon offering lots of activities from kayaking down the river to gorge-walking. (The kayaking was fab but we would recommend not choosing the shortest of the trips - it was over far too soon!) Carcassone itself was interesting, and the food market at Narbonne was fantastic. The gite itself was clean and comfortable and we really appreciated all the information Jonathan and Susannah provide in their welcome pack, as well as excellent communication beforehand. We would not hesitate to return to La Maison des Vignes and would highly recommend it to others.

We spent a very nice week at Tourouzelle. Jonathan's apartment "Lavande" is very spacious, well equipped and we enjoyed the covered terrace. Jonathan provided a website with many good suggestions for restaurants and trips. Check-in and check-out were flexible and we felt very welcome.

We had a wonderful relaxing stay in Gite Lavande - a hidden gem tucked away in peaceful rural French village. Jonathan & Susannah were excellent hosts and the intro drinks party at the start of our week was a lovely way to meet the other two families staying on site. The gite was very comfortable and well equipped and the pool area was wonderful - we very much hope to be able to return again.

We stayed in Lavande at the end of the 2012 summer season and really enjoyed our holiday. The gite is spacious and well maintained with a high standard of fittings and furniture and the pool is large with comfortable furniture and kept in good order on a daily basis. I particularly enjoyed the use of one of the mountain bikes and found plenty of local cycle routes including the virtually traffic free country roads, marked pathways and canal footpaths. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby in Homps and more in other local villages, especially those along the canal. The file of local information provided on arrival includes useful information about a number of them to help make a choice. Jonathan and Suzannah were great hosts and we enjoyed their company (and plenty of their wine!) at the informal welcome evening which put us and other guests at ease and gave us useful tips about local attractions, where to eat and where what was available in the village.
