YOUR OWN PRIVATE NATURE RESERVE

The serene tranquillity of the Domaine de la Vène is unrivalled in the region, with its peaceful silence being broken by nothing but the harmonious chorus of cicadas during the day and the song of nightingales after dark. When the sun rises at dawn, revealing rolling hills and forest as far as the eye can see, you could be forgiven for thinking that civilisation is a million miles away. Yet, with the medieval city of Carcassonne so close by, offering vibrant summer festivals, sight-seeing, wine tasting, and great dining, and with the option of day trips to fine beaches and even the Pyrenees, the house is the perfect base to explore this culturally rich region, with as much or as little effort as you wish.
