Domaine de la Bade:
Here you will find attention to detail, the little things that make a holiday special. At this small-scale gîte complex, that means six fully furnished holiday homes with spacious living rooms, large bedrooms with very comfortable beds, a swimming pool with a fantastic view where you can relax, read a book or socialise. Sunny terraces, shady corners, delectable food, delicious wines and, above all, a relaxed and informal atmosphere where you can really feel at home.

Domaine de la Bade is also a holiday paradise for children. While you can relax and read a book, the children have plenty of room to romp and enjoy themselves! The swimming pool, the swings, the trampolines, the ping-pong table and wandering through the fields on the 14-hectare estate (away from busy roads) are the favourite pastimes of our youngest guests.

    Prachtig domein op locatie met veel mogelijkheden
    Het domein straalt echt een Zuid- Franse sfeer uit, inclusief zonnebloemen en lavendelgeur. De gite (cabardes) was ruim en comfortabel en van alles voorzien. De eigenaren Joep en Miranda zijn heel gastvriendelijk en maken zelfs hun eigen honing en olijfolie. Er is een fijn zwembad en er zijn speeltuigen voor de kinderen. De locatie biedt mogelijkheden tot veel uitstappen, 1 week is eigenlijk te kort. Een beetje leven als God in Frankrijk is hier zeker van toepassing!

  • 10 stars

    Wij hebben het ontzettend naar onze zin gehad in La Bade, prachtig verblijf, mooi ingericht, prachtig verzorgde tuin met zwembad. Mooi gelegen met mooi uitzicht. Maar vooral de gastvrijheid van Joep en Miranda was heel prettig. Heerlijk gegeten en gedronken tijdens de table d'hote die door hen georganiseerd, gekookt en bediend werden. We komen graag terug! Yvonne en Hans.

    Vous ne pourrez pas être déçus par ce gîte.
    Il est d’une très grande qualité et encore mieux que l’annonce.
    Ce gîte est très confortable, équipé dans le moindre détail, extrêmement propre, entouré de très beaux jardins et d’une piscine très agréable.
    Les environs sont exceptionnels. Vous êtes au calme dans la campagne avec une vue extraordinaire, entouré de quelques villages très mignons et de belles balades.
    Le canal du Midi passe à 3-4 km dans la vallée. Vous êtes à 10 minutes de l’autoroute, 30 minutes de Carcassonne, 1h de Toulouse, 1h de la mer, à proximité des Châteaux Cathares, Albi à 1h30, …
    Vous êtes entourés de restaurants sympathiques (excellentes recommandations de Joep et Miranda)
    Joep et Miranda sont très attentionnés. Joep nous avait préparé une quiche salade pour notre arrivée (c’est beaucoup plus confortable que de devoir se précipiter sur un hypermarché ou de faire le choix d’un resto dans la précipitation)
    Joep organisait une « livraison » de pain tout les matins, …
    Sincèrement, vous pouvez foncer sans craintes pour réserver.

Restaurants, food & wine

Eating & drinking is among the locals' favourite pastimes and the area is therefore blessed with tasty restaurants, fantastic markets and many wine estates where a nice glass of wine can be tasted. But enjoying a cup of coffee on a sleepy terrace in the area or a nice picnic along the beautiful Canal du Midi is of course not to be sneezed at either.

There is much to see and do the land of the Cathars. We would love to help you discover this beautiful region.

Activities

In the immediate surroundings, there is plenty to see and do. The city of Carcassonne, with the largest walled castle in Europe, is 15 km from the estate. Here you can enjoy various knightly shows and festivals in summer. Near Carcassonne there is also a large lake with sandy beach (ideal for the little ones) and an adventure park with climbing and scrambling parcous which is one of the highlights for slightly older kids.

The beautiful area with hills, mountains, rivers, lakes and typical French villages has much to offer in terms of sporting activities; mountain biking, cycling, hiking, white-water canoeing, rafting, swimming, fishing, boating, visiting caves, skiing, windsurfing, catamaran sailing, horse riding, golf and much more.
