The apt is located right in the center of Carcassonne, (walking street) First time visiting Carcassonne, not aware how narrow the street also the internet signals is weak, the GPS could not work properly. The end result we took almost two hours to get to the apt, this is just the typical situation when traveling to many small city/village in Europe. Nicky was very helpful but with difficulty with internet our message did not go through. One suggestion for future travelers not to rely internet nor GPS when travel by car, it can get very confusing thus stressful for the driver, The best way to avoid such confusion is simply instruct how to get the nearest parking lot, say the street name when entering the city where there are proper sign to follow the parking direction. Just a straight forward sentence stating at the entry of the city and the name of the parking lot closest to the apt.

Nice flat
A nice flat but the pictures make it look better than it is. The building is old and has a horrible smell in the lobby. The flat was very comfortable but could use some upgrades. Location was great for shops and restuarants.

Great apartment -well appointed. Great for families
We enjoyed the flat a great deal. It was much larger than we expected and was a really nice place. Great attention to detail (a great kitchen) and extremely clean. It is on a main pedestrian high-street, but we found that a bonus and added to the character and overall experience of our stay. There is a grocery store 200 feet away which was very convenient. Philip was very helpful on check in. Would highly recommend -especially for families or couples travelling together.

This is a great location
We really enjoyed this property. Very nicely situated allowing us to walk to all of the sites in Carcassonne. Many good places to eat nearby. The market three days per week is only two blocks away. It was a bit noisy Saturday evening as a result of entertainment in the cafe bar downstairs but it was over by ten. The apartment is very comfortable and amenities very good

Location, location
We had a wonderful stay at this apartment. It is literally a five minute walk from the train station and we had a wonderful car-free week. Teenage son and husband took the bus out to Lac de la Cavayère to do the aerial rope course and zip line (they said it was fantastic), we took the train for a day trip to Toulouse (lots to see), had a walk along the Canal du Midi and spent the rest of the time wandering round Carcassonne. The apartment is huge and there are lots of very thoughtful touches left for you which were much appreciated. Thanks to Phil too who gave great restaurant recommendations and advised us to climb the 232 steps in the Eglise St Vincent to get the best views over Carcasonne. Go, stay in the apartment - you’ll have a great time!

A wonderful stay !
We thoroughly enjoyed our recent two week stay in this spacious, well appointed apartment. We enjoyed the space and all of the home comforts. What a great location.....close to shops for food, the open market and Les Halles for fresh fruit, veg and salad, meat, fish etc. We walked and walked....along The Canal du Midi...to The Cite.....along the river...all easy to do. Great location to access the bus ( Navette ) to and from the airport....also trains to places such as Narbonne, Tolouse, Limoux and bus to the lake... close to canal for boat trips...all great places to visit. The contact and attention given to us at every stage was excellent....thanks once again to Rory and Philip for your help, advice and hospitality.

Roomy and convenient
This apartment is spacious and conveniently located, close to the train station and to the medieval city. It is centrally situated for shopping as well. We managed to find everything desired within a short walk and had a wonderful multi-day stay. Things did get noisy, but we expected as much during World Cup. Absolutely recommend this Carcassonne gem.

Spacious beautiful property right in the heart of town
This is one of the best places I've stayed at and we travel quite a lot with both Airbnb and vrbo. The location is right by the main square and within a half mile walk to the old city. It is right next to s supermarket and numerous cute shops and restaurants. The apartment itself is huge and has two large bedrooms and a large sitting area. Kitchen is well equipped for cooking with oil, spices, etc. There are even beach towels and umbrellas! All in all, a great home base to explore this region.

Excellent apartment, full of French charm. So close to restaurants & cafe. Kids enjoyed Segway hire
Fantastic apartment, on top of a fabulous make up shop for our 2 teenage girls! So close to the main square, where there was a wonderful local farmers market. The size of the bedrooms are amazing, nearly too much space! The old shutters on the large windows adds such french charm to the bohemian interior. And thanks for the bottled water and wine upon arrival! Carcassonne is magical, but remember nearly everything closes on Sunday (apart from the endearing Celt bar) Definitely recommend this place

The Star of Carcassonne!!!
Well situated, bright and airy on a couple of very hot days. Get your fitbit on this is a grand apartment with loads of room and large bedrooms. Although over a bar ,the noise of an acoustic guitar wafting upwards from the street was beguiling and non obtrusive. Once you retire to the bedroom quiet descends. I never usually remark on my stays, after all it is not my job to sell this place ,however for what my opinions worth ,this was a wonderful stay.

Super functional apartment in Bastide St-Louis
Now this is the type of appartement I'm expecting when renting for a few days. Everything you need (and not traveling with!) is there: washing liquid, sponges, recycling little bines and even Q-tips! The only thing missing : a toaster. But hey, we are in France. I had croissants instead. Then why 4*? A new coat of paint is desperately needed in the bathroom. And the main public entrace of the building stinks. Really. Communication was quick and clear in emails and on site. Thank guys, great team!

Perfect location
It's a huge apartment in the heart of the Carcassonne (around the corner from the place Carnot), few steps away from the supermarket and on the main shopping street. Apartment is clean and tidy, and kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cater yourself. Rory, the owner, was very kind and immediately after booking confirmation sent us several tips and recommended destinations.
