We were a party of 16, 11 adults and 5 children aged 2-11 and the houses, location and cleanliness were superb. Thomas you as there to make sure we had everything we needed and enjoyed the wine tour and tasting! We were lucky enough to be around for the breathtaking fireworks on Bastille day too which was a bonus! I would totally recommend Domaine de Cantalauze and hope to return one day….

Had a wonderful 2 weeks from 10-24 August with all our family, 8 adults and 9 children ranging from 11 years to 2 months. Houses were clean and spacious with comfy beds. Spent most of the time in the pool which kids adored. Thomas was always very helpful and gave us a tour of his wine estate which was very interesting and included wine tasting too.
The surrounding area is beautiful, we walked and cycled to Carcassonne along the Canal du Midi and drove to Narbonne and Lagrasse to visit the Abbey de Fontfroide. There are so many interesting places to visit in the area .
We have many fond memories of our time spent here and wouldn’t hesitate to return again.
Thank you Thomas.

Group of mostly old-timers with a few youngish family members had a smashing time at Domaine de Cantalauze. Everything was basically great: Thomas is a terrific host and gave up an evening to take us through his wine making business. He also allowed us to project the Europa Final on the screen in his wine-tasting room - so we avoided the need to crowd round a tiny laptop screen 😁👍
We walked to Trebes for meals - 25 min via the canal - and to buy groceries (supermarket is 10min drive). Also hired bikes and cycled the other way alongside the canal to Carcassonne.
Then we headed for a day on the beach near Narbonne - a 90minute drive.
We found the pool and games room added to our fun.
Accommodation is spacious, with a lovely rustic feel. An hour and a quarter’s easy drive from Toulouse airport.
All in all I would highly recommend this venue for a gathering of old-mates.

Thomas was a great host and ensured we had all we could want for including his own estate wine that went down a treat. Amenities were all excellent we just needed a little more sun shine! Very happy holiday!
