La Maison Harrison is a 3-bedroomed cottage, sleeping 6 (+baby), in the village of St-Couat-d'Aude (Aude), 12km W of Lézignan-Corbières, 24km E of Carcassonne, 41km W of Narbonne, 70km SW of Béziers (Michelin map 526). VFB is delighted to have featured this property since 2006. Saturday arrival.
A charming, tastefully-renovated 100-year-old stone barn set in a sleepy village in the heart of wine-making country. Whitewashed walls, high ceilings, exposed beams and tiled floors throughout the ground floor make for a rustic French feel in this delightful property. Recently refurbished bedrooms and smart bathrooms add up to holiday accommodation of a very superior standard. Outside, a sun-drenched south-facing terrace leads to the partly gravelled and terraced landscaped garden, enhanced by colourful Mediterranean plants and the private swimming pool. Shrubs and a low hedge bordering the garden provide a good degree of privacy from neighbouring properties. In the area the typical village des Corbières of Fontcouverte at 8km; boating on the Canal du Midi; the commanding mediaeval citadel of Carcassonne above the River Aude; Mediterranean beaches, the Pyrenees and even Spain are within easy reach. In a nutshell, high quality holiday accommodation, ideally situated for experiencing French village life.
