Character building on large wooded grounds with private garden.

Rural house located in the village of Ornaisons surrounded by vineyards and pine forests. The cottage is in a former sweeping dating from 1835 adjoining the owner's house and on a plot of over 3000 m2. On the ground floor, a well open-plan kitchen living room with a typical Languedoc fireplace. A French window gives access to a private garden of around 200 m2 with terrace, garden furniture and barbecue. On the 1st floor, on the landing an independent WC, a bedroom with double bed and shower room. On the 2nd floor, a bedroom with double bed (possibility of an additional single bed) and a bathroom and separate wc. In the village, small local shops and numerous cellars of Corbières appellation wines. 10 minutes from Fontfroide Abbey, 20 minutes from Narbonne, 35 minutes from the beach and the City of Carcassonne, 15 minutes from the Canal du Midi, you will be ideally located for visiting our beautiful department and the wild and magnificent landscapes of our Corbières.

Relaxing in the south of France
Communication with property manager had some problems because of the Home Away app, which did not work well and prevented communication. The owner, who lives on the property was very gracious, friendly and helpful. The apartment is quite rustic. Location is quiet, close to the town center, which has a great bakery. I biked in for croissants in the morning. Great loction to tour this part of France.

Schönes Haus mit französischen Stil
Wir haben uns wohl gefühlt in dem Haus. Die Küche war mit allem sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Terrasse vor dem Haus ist sehr schön und es gab fast immer ein Platz mit natürlichen Schatten. Ein kleiner Nachteil war, dass die Straße doch mehr befahren war als wir erwartet hatten.

Altes Bauernhaus
wir haben hier zehn wunderschöne Tage verbracht! Wichtig ist jedoch zu beachten, dass der Ort etwas abgelegen ist. Bis zur nächsten Einkaufsmöglichkeit sind es mindestens 5 km, für größere Geschäfte muss man 8 km fahren. zu empfehlen ist hier die Bäckerei und der Laden in Bezinet. Marc und seine Frau sind sehr nett! Zu empfehlen ist auch der Kontakt zu den beiden wunderschönen Katzen.

Entspannung zwischen Wein Kanal und Meer
Meine Frau und ich haben hier 10 entspannte Tage verbracht und sind wunderschön geradelt. Das Haus ist geschmack- und liebevoll eingerichtet, auch die Küche war gut ausgestattet. Der Garten mit Hühnern und Katzen ist sicher auch für junge Familien eine Fundgrube. Bei Florence und Marc haben wir uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Und übrigens: seine Mandeln schmecken unübertroffen, haben uns direkt 2 Kilo für den Winter mitgenommen

Bien situé pour visiter les environs (canal du midi château Cathares Narbonne Abbaye...) Dans la cuisine tous les utensils sont neufs les casseroles et les poêles n'accrochent pas. De l'éplucheur à la fourchette à bulot rien ne nous a manqué. Marc nous a bien conseillé pour les visites et merci à Marc et Laurence pour le café.

Wunderbar!
Wir haben mit 2 Erwachsenen und 3 Kindern vier Tage in Ornaisons verbracht und uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Haus und die Vermieter sind wunderbar - alles so wir in der Beschreibung und auf den Bildern - vielleicht sogar noch schöner :-)! Es ist ein toller Ausgangspunkt für unterschiedliche Ausflüge - diese sind von den Vermietern schon sehr gut zusammengefasst - einfach in die Mappe sehen und auswählen. Wir kommen gerne wieder - liebe Grüße an Marc und Laurence

Dieser sehr schick u. authentisch renovierte Teil eines alten Bauernhofs liegt inmitten von hohen Bäumen auf einem großen naturbelassenen Grundstück. Gräuschempfindlich darf man nicht sein wegen der Grillen und der Dorfstrasse nebenan. Die Vermieter sind sehr hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend.
