Villelongue Côté Jardins

Making our way back from Collioure to Toulouse, we enjoyed our stay at Villelongue Cote Jardins in the lovely company of Claude and Renee. They kindly provided dinner for us on two occasions so we were able to savour delicious local produce, beautifully cooked and served. Carcassonne is within easy reach and we were charmed by nearby Montolieu, the French village dedicated to books.

Claude and Renée are truly friendly and attentive hosts and let us and our dog feel most welcome. It is a house with character with a beautiful garden, adjoining the monastery. During our three day stay mid of April, we enjoyed the special atmosphere of the place and enriching and pleasant conversations with the owners, it's a pleasure to listen to their stories!

What a delightful place to stay. The beds were comfortable, the shower excellent and the dinners quite special. We look forward to returning here in the future to continue our conversation with Claude and Renee.

I write on behalf of four of us who stayed for 2 nights earlier this month. We all enormously enjoyed our stay with the delightful sisters Renee and Claude . The rooms were spotless and very atmospheric with lovely period French furniture . The dinners were outstanding with fresh local produce beautifully presented and delicious. A pity we did not have more time to explore the area and enjoy the hospitality of the two ladies.

Wow! Amazing house, beautiful setting, fascinating area, glorious breakfasts & veggie food, huge bedroom, antique furniture, lovely shower room &, above all, 2 charming, generous, flexible, kind hosts whose local knowledge ensured great days out. Claude & Renee provide a very French experience. Their English is excellent and their knowledge highly enlightening. The house is a chateau adjoining abbey ruins and is a must for all history and/or food lovers. Their family of rescued dogs and cats is also enchanting. Don't miss this wonderful experience which combines past glories with all mod cons.
