About this property

Holiday house in a secluded location with a fascinating view

The holiday home "La Garrigue" stands on a huge plot of over 17,000 m² and is therefore ideally suited to allow children to develop freely - however open fire is strictly prohibited. Scattered in the landscape are some neighboring houses, far enough away to experience real silence. It is at least 80 m to the next house and 800 m to the country road. Built at the end of the 1970s, it is no longer very young and is nevertheless equipped with modern building technology. There are 2 bedrooms available, one with a separate sink. Both are equipped with double beds (separate mattresses). In the living room there is a pull-out sofa that can be used as a bed for 2 more people. All necessary cooking and household utensils as well as spices and cleaning agents are available.

A narrow, serpentine road (D 56) leads from the village of Siran to the "Curiosité de l'Auriole". After 6 km, shortly after the Curiosité, an unpaved path turns left into the Garrigue, the typical vegetation of the Languedocs. Here "La Garrigue" awaits you with an impressive distant view over the Minervois and the Corbières to the Pyrenees.
Siran, a tranquil wine-growing village with 700 inhabitants, lies at the foot of the Montagne Noire. In addition to the bakery, grocery and post office, you will find 3 restaurants here. 5 km away is a large swimming lake where you can also surf. It is just as far to supermarkets. The area is known as the land of the Cathars with the great monuments Quéribus, Peyrepertuse and many more. It is not far to the Pyrenees and Spain, and Barcelona is 3 hours away by car. Excursions to Minerve (namesake of the Minervois, 10 km), the world cultural heritage Canal du Midi (15 km) and the Cité de Carcassonne (35 km) are considered almost indispensable.

Prachtige plek maar een slecht onderhouden en vies huis
The house is in a great place with a breathtaking view, this was the positive (besides the size of the house, good dishwasher and plenty of crockery) but there are a lot of negative things that influenced our holiday. - toilet and floor were clean, rest of the house was very dirty and dusty (see photos). The shower was very dated / old and there was mold everywhere (see photo). There were many mice. The walls were damp causing paint to peel off. - we were criticized by the owner that we had consumed the wifi. The text only stated that the wifi was slow but not that there was a maximum. We bought a prepaid card ourselves and used it for a week. - We also received criticism after our holiday about the dog hairs that were in the house. Yes, that's right, we had 2 dogs with us but the cleaning was taken care so, of course there are dog hairs ... - In all cupboards in the kitchen and in the 2 bedrooms there were/hung private items (food, clothing) and even in the fridge were opened pots and tubes of food. There were dead flies in the kitchen and mouse droppings in a cupboard. - we cleaned 1 terrace ourselves on the first day, completely stripped the hood of grease, replaced the shower curtain (shower curtain that hung there was dirty and brown), all smooth parts in the room were wiped wet (see table with 'dirt') and 1 cupboard cleared for our own stuff. Contact with the owner was very unpleasant, we were treated in a nasty way. We have paid a lot of euro's (rent,water &electricity & extra persons)and we may expect something in return. We have been renting holiday homes for more than 30 years, but we have never experienced this, a dirty house and customer-unfriendly owner. ps we did make some photo's/pictures...

Magnifique paysage et extérieur
Il mériterait de bon travaux intérieurs. Spartiate. Un micro ondes serait utiles. Et signaler que le WiFi est non pas restreint mais très limité 20Go par sem pas évident de travailler. Le site extérieur est grandiose. Donc un peu dommage que le reste de la maison soit plus que vieillissant...rapport qualité prix à revoir selon nous..et pas d explications en français ni livres dommage..

Endlich Ruhe....
Hallo Bernd, wir haben den Aufenthaltung in Ihrem Ferienhaus sehr genossen. Die Blick von der Terasse, der grosse Garten, der Pool haben zum lesen und entspannen eingeladen. Die Ruhe und Umgebung sowie die tolle Lage Ihres Ferienhauses sind aussergewöhnlich, fast zu schön um wahr zu sein.....genau das wir gesucht haben. Das Haus hat genau den Bildern sowie Beschreibungen entsprochen, es gab keine Überraschungen. Wir würden uns freuen wieder bei Ihnen zu Gast sein zu dürfen. Vielen Dank für die angenehme Kommunikation über die Monate. Grüsse Nicole Strauss-Kalkuhl
