Beautifully presented, beautifully located. Quick easy drive from Carcassonne, near enough to shops & restaurants, but still so perfectly private!!
ReplyDeleteWe shall definately be returning!
Le Moulin at Issel is a definite recommendation from me. It is a wonderful place to stay in a stunning location and easily accessible from Carcassonne. It feels secluded but not isolated. The gite is beautifully furnished and has everything you need for a perfect stay (even a DVD player for those not so perfect weather days). The tranquility was wonderful.
ReplyDeletethanks to Brian and Angela for being such kind and considerate hosts.
