About this property

Polfages where the mountains meet the sea, 3 Gites With Pool And Stunning Views

We have spent 7 years looking for our dream house and location, now that we have found it we want to offer you in Domaine de Polfages the chance to enjoy the best standards found in English country cottages with the lifestyle that can only be found in the South of France. With in an easy drive of Carcassonne and Toulouse and only 15 minutes from the historic town of Mirepoix.

With a location we fell in love with it really is one of the most relaxing and beautiful places we have ever seen. Domaine de Polfages is an idyllic location for your holiday. Situated overlooking rolling hills with views over to the Montagne Noir on one side and the Pyrenees on the other.

It offers a holiday that can be both relaxing and action packed. Domaine de Polfages is ideal if you just want to sit by the pool and relax taking in the stunning views or if you want to make the most of you time in the region. With the beach just over an hour away and the mountains the same you can truly get the best of both types of holiday.

Belcaire is 1 of the 3 gites that we offer our guests, each of the gites are individual units allowing our guests their own private space. However one or all of the gites can be rented for larger parties allowing us to take groups of up to 14 people. The gites have been configured to allow large groups to be together during the day but have their own space if they want in the evening.

Our gite Belcaire is made up of a well equipped kitchen and dinning area leading through to a comfortable lounge. The lounge contains a wood burning stove for those cooler evening's and leads on to the terrace and BBQ area, where you live the alfresco life style whilst relaxing with the stunning views. You can access the garden and pool from the terrace.

Upstairs there are 2 spacious bed rooms with access to the bathroom with walk in shower. Both bedrooms can be arranged with either 2 single beds or a super king size bed, you my maximum flexibility and a great night's sleep.

There is access to WIFI and English TV channels so you can stay in touch with the world should you so desire.

Fantastic property in a beautiful location
We absolutely loved our stay in Polfages. The property is well set up with everything you may need during your stay; the rooms are bright and cosy, and the surroundings are so peaceful and beautiful. Andrew and Jo are fantastic hosts - they showed us around when we arrived, provided us with great recommendations on where to go and what to do and were overall very approachable and understanding (we are travelling with a 3-year-old and 6-year-old). Our kids loved interacting with all the animals - dogs, horses, goats, chickens and elusive cats. And the pool has the best view! It was our first time in Europe and we fell in love with France due to how wonderful our stay in Polfages was. Thank you Andrew and Jo!

Welcoming hosts , excellent accomadation.
We just love to go to Polfages , and indeed have returned there every year since Jo , Andrew, and Jasmine arrived and have opened it up for visitors . Part of the attraction of this wonderful holiday is that the hosts are so welcoming to all of us who go there . We have always received excellent service on every holiday that we have ever had there . That coupled with the superb accommodation , excellent facilities,beautiful views and friendly welcome make it a must to visit . The surrounding countryside is absolutely beautiful. We love to go to the Castle in Carcassone and indeed make it an annual trip now . The market in Mirepoix is also a must to visit . Mirepoix with its little bars and shops is an absolute delight and well worth a visit. We just love it . The property itself is beautiful and every time I approach it on an annual visit I feel so happy to return there . The gites are always spotlessly clean and well maintained . The fact that I return year after year speaks volumes . I just love going there and catching up with the family and of course the dogs , cats, goats and all ......Always a warm welcome on every visit from all .... Without hesitation I would welcome Polfages to anyone . We will be back next year Jo Andrew and Jasmin ......

Long May weekend stay i a beautiful Villautou gite
The property is in a stunning, peaceful location with breathtaking views across the French country side. It is spacious, clean, well maintained with lovely comfortable furnishings. The customer service was excellent, a catering service is available if required, I can highly recommend the fresh homemade pizzas, they were delicious & very welcome on our first evening of arrival! The owners are very friendly have a great knowledge of the local area & restaurants. On recommendation we visited the spa town of Ax-Les-Thermes at the foot of the snow topped Pyrenees & the views were spectacular. We also visited the superb spa complex fed by the warm water that rises naturally in the town. The nearby town of Mirepoix has plenty of great places to eat and is well worth a visit especially on Market day. I would highly recommend this property, we had a wonderful holiday & hope to return in the future. Thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Frith

Host profile image
We have spent 20 years helping to running holiday cottages in the UK and holidaying in gites in France. We want to offer you in Domaine de Polfages the chance to enjoy the best standards found in English country cottages with the life style that can only be found in the South of France. With a location we fell in love with, it really is one of the most relaxing and beautiful places we have ever seen.

Why they chose this property

Domaine de Polfages is somewhere that my family and I think of as truly special. Every time I walk the dogs or just sitting and take in the views I realizes how lucky we are.

From the views that stretch away into the forever distance to the clean pure air that comes from the stunning Pyrenees. Taking the in the silence of the countryside to watching the hawks spiraling upwards into the clear blue sky.

Domaine de Polfages really is where the Mountains meet the Sea and there is a world of things to do in between to suit everyone. At Domaine de Polfages you really are able to have the best of all worlds. From sitting by the pool relaxing with stunning views and tranquility while recharging your batteries to being able to visit some of the most historic sites, towns and castles in all of France. Learn about the history of the Cathars and how the Canal du Midi was built joining the Atlantic to the Mediterranean. If you would like to include mountains activities in your holiday then the Pyrenees are only 45 minutes away, or in just over an hour you can spend time on the Mediterranean beaches.
