Grand Pic - Aude - Sleeps 6

Spacious, cool gite with pool in a peaceful rural setting in heart of the Aude.

Grand Pic at Les Pics Blancs offers a very peaceful setting being located in the grounds of a large domaine in the heart of the Aude countryside where vineyards and sunflowers abound. This is a beautiful region of France with views of the Pyrenees and is steeped in the history of the Cathars.

The cool and spacious gite has its own front garden with patio area for al fresco dining and includes a garage to keep the car cool in hot weather. Within the grounds is a small lake and the ruins of an old chapel.

We also have secure lockable parking for motorbikes.

For those who really want a stress free break the pool (10m x 5m), spa and terraced area offers the perfect place to relax in the sun or shade and to enjoy a leisurely dip. Exclusive use of the terraced area around the pool is afforded to guests but the owners may join you for a short period to cool off. Pool toys, an assortment of floating aids and garden games are available. There is a games room and WC close to the pool.

Les Pics Blancs benefits from its country location and the peace and tranquility it offers whilst being close to a wealth and variety of every conceivable requirement one could ask for. For those who want a more active holiday and sport is your interest, golf, skiing, tennis, football, rugby etc are all close. Culture and the arts thrive in many of the local communities as well as in the larger centres of Toulouse and Carcassonne. The countryside is beautiful and spectacular, with its mountains, gorges, caves, canals and rivers offering ramblers, painters, naturalists, cyclists and many others a dream environment in which to explore. For historians the history of the Cathars is enshrined in the area with lots of interesting sites to visit.

The gite has three bedrooms (a double, a twin and a bunk room) and a family bathroom upstairs. The open plan downstairs has a lounge, fully equipped kitchen and dining room. A separate laundry room, separate wc, separate shower room with hand wash basin and single garage completes the accommodation.

The gite is suitable for children (cots and high chairs are available) but not for the very elderly or persons with mobility problems. Previous guests have commented on the coolness of the gite in hot weather but electric fans are available if required. Electric radiators are present in all rooms. A Wi-Fi connection is also available.
