Having lived in the southern French Alps for nearly eight years, we came on holiday to this beautiful area and fell in love with it right away. So we decided to exchange the mountains for the sunny vineyards and mysterious castles of the Aude.
In the Aude you will find all the beauties of France back in one province:
sandy beaches, ski slopes, old quiet country villages, mediaeval towns and rugged castles, wild gorges with fast flowing rivers, beautiful rolling hills with olive trees, sunflowers and vineyards ...
We consider this therefore as the most beautiful region of France!
Around "Entre les Vignes" it is very quiet: it's situated on a quiet little lane with no passing traffic, 500 meters from the village Tourreilles. Both from the gîtes as from the pool you have a magnificent view on the surrounding vineyards of the AOC "Blanquette de Limoux" and on the hills of the Corbières!
You can just hang around, laze and "slow down", but also go hiking and mountain biking, visit the castles and villages, or wine tasting at the neighbours ...
Our 4 gîtes are located in the "Pays Cathare", the Cathar country:
You'll find beautiful, rough castles, such as Peyrepertuse with its mediaeval festival, Queribus, Puilaurens, Thermes, or the mysterious Montségur from the Grail legend. And of course the magnificent medieval Cité of Carcassonne, with its knight tournaments and summer concerts: this is the best preserved mediaeval walled city of France and is on the World Heritage list of UNESCO.
There are plenty of old villages and towns nearby. Such as the mediaeval market town of Mirepoix with its Basilique and cosy square full of terraces, St. Hilaire with its abbey, Foix with its citadel, the old health resort Alet-les-Bains with its spring water and abbey ruins, or Rennes-le-Chateau with its mysterious treasure, and in the health resort of Rennes-les-Bains you can find hot thermal baths, especially for rheumatism.
Limoux is located at only 6 km from our gîtes. It is a nice little old town situated on the river Aude, and has a lovely square with lots of terraces. During summer there are weekly evening markets, antique markets, free concerts and an international dance festival. In many of the little towns nearby you'll also find plenty of cosy cafes, markets, flea markets and village festivals (feria's).
In short: "Entre les Vignes" is a lovely place in a beautiful region!

Reviews
A.F.J.M Fleurkens from Warnsveld,
We hebben een fijne week gehad in één van de drie huisjes (Le Merlot) bij Entre les Vignes.
Zeer vriendelijk ontvangen door Gregory en Delphine.
Het huisje is compleet ingericht met een prachtig uitzicht op de bergen en de wijngaarden. Een fijn terras voor en achter.
Gregory en Delphine zijn sinds 4 maanden de nieuwe eigenaren en hebben plannen om de inrichting en een aantal spullen te moderniseren.
Limoux, op 10 minuten rijden, is een leuk plaatsje waar je o.a. lekker kunt lunchen.
De supermark, waar je ook meteen kunt tanken, in Limoux ligt handig vanaf de tourit van/naar Limoux.
Prachtig gewandeld vanuit het huisje.
Goed vertrekpunt om Carcassonne e a. plaatsen te bezoeken.Tara from Belgium,
Back from 2 weeks at the gîte Entre les Vignes with Delphine & Gregory.
We had a wonderful holiday with a couple of friends and our two kids (2 years and 6 months).
The gîte is clean, spacious, and equipped with everything you need.
The surroundings are beautiful, with a magnificent view.
The owners are very friendly and are happy to provide tips and explanations for those who want to explore the area.
Shops, pharmacy, bakery, etc., are just a 10-minute drive away.The pool is well-maintained and safe.
It's very convenient to have a washing machine available to do laundry, and each house has its own clothes rack as well as a BBQ.We definitely want to go back!
Rona en Arno Asseper from Eersel,

Restaurants, food & wine
”TOQUES ET CLOCHERS” :
In Limoux, or in one of the 40 surrounding villages, one of the largest wine festivals of France is organised each year, the weekend before Easter. You can taste the fine wines from the region and you can eat at one of the open air restaurants. The proceeds are used for restoring the church of the organizing village. Everything takes place in the open air, where many bands turn it into a great festival!
The wines of the Languedoc-Roussillon and the Corbieres are of course very well known, so a visit to one of the many wine cellars should definitely be on the program. For example in Limoux with its delicious "Blanquette": the first sparkling wine in the world, discovered in 1531 by the monks of the Abbey of St. Hilaire and the precursor of champagne ...
Allow yourself to be tempted by the gastronomy of our region, for example a Casoulet, or the Fricassée de Limoux.
Activities
There are many beautiful walking tours which then go through rolling vineyards, then across open tops with stunning views! Also on your bike you can let off steam.
The Tour de France comes every year nearby and passes regularly by Limoux.
In the area you can swim in several lakes, on the river Aude you can go canoeing and rafting and the climbers will like the tree climbing parks.
The mountains of the Pyrenees (where you can ski in winter) are at an hour's drive. Andorra is at 2.5 hours.
The beaches of the Mediterranean, for example Narbonne-Plage, St. Pierre, Gruissan, or Porte la Nouvelle, are also about an hour's drive.
