Lagrasse June 2023
We had two amazing weeks in Lagrasse and I can highly recommend this property. Roger and Angele went out of their way to make sure we were happy and had all we needed. The property is just on the edge of the village with a pleasant short walk to the main street with all the bars and restaurants. It is well supplied with great facilities. Everyone loved the pool. One of the best places we ever stayed. Will be back!

Coup de coeur
Maison très agréable située sur les hauteurs de Lagrasse. Nous avons adoré notre séjour de 2 semaines. Vue magnifique sur le village qui est à 500 m à pied. Le coin piscine est agréable et très bien sécurisé. La maison est très pratique, bien équipée, et les propriétaires sont joignables facilement et très charmants. Un vrai coup de coeur.

About the host

Hosted by Angele

Host profile image
Angele and I have owned our house in Lagrasse for 30 years and had many wonderful family holidays with our children and friends

Why they chose this property

A unique combination of seclusion and close access to the delights and sophistication of beautiful but lively Lagrasse

What makes this property unique

Roc de Cagaliere is unique. Within 5 minutes walk of the village, the house is set in an ancient olive grove away from the bustle, with a truly magnificent view over the village and the Orbieu river valley. Sitting on the terrace or around the pool looking out over the red tiled roofs of the village, the abbey and the vineyards is a great experience, especially as the sun goes down, and one that thrills us in the same way it did 30 years ago when we first came to the house. We know of no other house in Lagrasse that has quite the same qualities and it's there for you to enjoy. Leave the car at home and wander into the village to enjoy its shops, restaurants and bars but escape back to the seclusion of our house in the trees.
