Villa with private pool in Carcassonne town, quiet area with castle views

With 3 large bedrooms and a couch bed in the living room, Maison Fortunat sleeps 6-8 adults comfortably. There is even extra space for a travel cot in two of the bedrooms. And the couch bed boasts a real double mattress.
A spacious kitchen and living/dining room each seat 6 people round the table. Highchairs can be provided. The property is walled and private with its own swimming pool. Buggies and child car seats and toys are available.
Maison Fortunat is only a 15-minute drive from Carcassonne airport and an hour's drive from Beziers or Toulouse airports. Most importantly, Maison Fortunat is in Carcassonne town itself, ideal for those who like to dine out and take advantage of the nightlife, as it is only a few minutes’ walk from the historic medieval city (la Cité). The house boasts views of la cité from the garden and sitting room. The house is only 10 minutes walk from a large shopping centre. A 20-minute walk or short bus ride will bring you into the heart of Carcassonne's Bastide, Place Carnot, Canal du Midi and the River Aude. Numerous bus routes run past the house.
Carcassonne is a town of colourful festivals and events, wonderful food, wine and friendly local people, steeped in history and is a fantastic area to explore being only an hour from breathtaking walking, hiking, running, and beach destinations and two hours from ski locations.

Great location
The property and pool were larger than I was expecting. Handy location with a bakery and Lidl 10 minutes walk away. We caught the bus just across the road to the lake and enjoyed the water park and inflatables there. Great to be able to walk to the castle. Susan was very kind and helpful.

It was perfect for our vacation, with the people we were with the rooms worked. Pool was awesome for the hot days. We had one rainy evening and so chose a video. There was a wonderful DVD collection. All in all a great rental.

Lovely house, great location
We stayed in this well-equipped house as a family of four (2 adults and 2 teenage girls) in August. The property was very comfortable, with lots of spacious rooms and a great outdoor space. The pool was very refreshing after sunbathing in the complete sun-trap of a garden. We also enjoyed relaxing in the lounge after returning home from an evening out. (Lovely new sofas not shown in photos.) There were well-stocked bookshelves, and lots of dvds and games. The house is an easy ten minute walk from La Cité, which is a beautiful place to visit. We dined out here most nights, and enjoyed exploring the little streets, restaurants and shops. The ramparts tour was fabulous and highly recommended - amazing views. We also liked the Lower town which is a twenty minute walk away. Lots of shops, and a lovely square to sit and people watch whilst enjoying a drink or meal. The fab boulangerie on the main road is a four minute walk away, and it's a ten minute walk to Lidl. We also liked the little Vival sipermarket on the walk back from the Lower town. Susan was a lovely host - helpful but 'invisible'. Speedy responses to texts, and happy to book the taxi back to the airport for us. We had a great holiday, and would happily stay at Maison Fortunat again if we ever returned to Carcassonne.

Beautiful location, amazing property
We stayed at this property for 2 weeks in August 2024. It is a lovely house with a gorgeous pool. The host Susan is the perfect mix of present but unobtrusive. The surrounding area has so much to do, from caves and underground chasms to beautiful villages and Mediterranean beaches. Highly recommend!

Well equipped and ideal location.
Susan was a superb host, very helpful both before and during our stay. The house was very well maintained and equipped with everything you could possibly need, including an extensive book and DVD collection. Only a 10 minute walk the castle and to the local Aldi and Lidl, also close to the several bus routes. The pool was very well used throughout our stay and was clean and well maintained. Thank you Susan, we had a wonderful time.

Susan, was very welcoming. The villa was great, spacious and clean with everything we needed and the pool was fantastic to cool off in on the hot afternoons. Carcassonne itself was a delight with the Cite itself a short 10 minute walk away.

Super house, pool and location
We had a lovely week staying in Maison Fortunat. All adults and our three year old granddaughter loved swimming and relaxing around the clean and well proportioned swimming pool which was especially welcome during some daytime temperatures of 30C plus. Although situated near a fairly busy road this did not impact on our enjoyment. It is a short walk into the Cité which is well worth exploring. The Bastide Saint-Louis is also within walking distance. This part of Carcassonne is also worth visiting especially on market days. We used the bus stop across the road to travel to Lac de la Cavayère (line 2a) which has a sandy beach, several adventurous activities and a beautiful circular walk around the lac. Susan is an excellent host and provided plenty of helpful advice. All the rooms are spacious with ceiling fans. The kitchen is well equipped and the lounge which has a small balcony is a comfortable space to sit, relax and dine. Thank you Susan for a memorable stay in your property. A taxi from the airport to the property cost around 18 euros.

Maison OK mais piscine très très sale
Maison conforme à la description, bien agencée et propre. Le GROS problème INACCEPTABLE : la piscine impropre à notre arrivée (il n’y avait pas de locataires avant nous les propriétaires en profitaient avant notre arrivée). Durant 1 semaine nous avions une piscine ultra trouble impossible de voir les marches à cause des particules en flottaison. L’entretien n’est pas dûment réalisé et la propriétaire n’a pas l’équipement adéquat pour aspirer les particules au fond. Pour le prix loué c’est inacceptable. Nous avons aspiré tous les matin/ soir et acheté les floculants pour pouvoir nous baigner. Malgré nos efforts impossible d’avoir une piscine un minimum propre. Malgré la saleté avec 43 degrés on à du se baigner malgré tout. A noter en plus pas de lave vaisselle et pas de climatisation nous avons soufferts pendant la canicule. Le seul confort les ventilateurs au plafond. Ce n’était pas dans la description donc pas de mensonge mais ça mérite d’être précisé clairement dans l’annonce car à ce prix là on s’attend à un certain standing. Propriétaire habite en RDJ. Le quartier n’est pas calme du tout contrairement à la description. La maison est à l’angle d’une route ultra passante, beaucoup de passages nocturnes véhicules et piétons. Le vrai + c’est la distance à pied à 800m de la cité, la surface habitable et la literie. Expérience très désagréable, du jamais vu en piscine privé. Photo d’annonce ancienne. Réelle déception malgré une propriétaire sympathique.

Excellent location and friendly host
We would highly recommend staying here! The property, was not only very large for a group of 4, it was also very well equipped with everything you need for a weeks stay. The pool area is fantastic; which given the 35 degree heatwave was great for relaxing and cooling off in. Locations wise, the property is close by to an excellent bakery and two supermarkets. Carcassonne castle, which has an abundance of restaurants and shops within the walls is a very easy 10 minute walk away. Susan the host was very welcoming and helpful, providing us with plenty of recommendations and also helping us with booking a taxi. Thanks for a great stay! We would certainly come back!

The best hub to explore pays de Cathares!
We wanted to have the right location to explore not only Carcassonne but also all sights related to pays Cathares. And we found it! The house is great in all dimensions: location (15 min walk from Medieval cite of Carcasssone), space, facilities (great pool! - 5 min walk bakery - 5 min drive Lidl, etc) you name it. On top of that Susan is an ideal host. She was great in helping us organise our schedule for the 8 days and gave us some fantastic tips in terms of locations and restaurants. And she was “invisible” even if she lives with her family on site. I would thoroughly recommend Maison Fortunat and Carcassonne!!

Great location, lovely villa, amazing pool
We stayed at this villa for 10nights in August and it definitely didn’t let us down. There was 5 adults, 1 child and a dog. Rooms were spacious, living room was great looking over the pool and huge kitchen great for dining in. The most important thing we look for when booking a villa is the pool/outside area... and the pictures don’t do it enough justice, the pool is a great size which was well used due to amazing weather +35*c and great shady area to get out of the sun if needed. We walked to the castle ( Cité de Carcassonne) pretty much every night which is a 10 minute walk full of little shops, restaurants and bars great atmosphere and amazing sights. Susan was a great host and made us feel really welcomed in her home, she also helped us with organising a trip to the vets which was close by too. Would definitely recommend staying here if you want a chilled, historical and amazing holiday. Thank you Susan
