Le Marron

The Domain La Bauzeille Haute (50 hectares of pure nature) was formerly a hamlet of the village of La Serpent and is situated in the heart of the most unspoilt and most beautiful southern French countryside, the Aude, in the Languedoc-Roussillon at the foothills of the Pyrenees.

We are right in the middle of the Cathar legendary heritage and wow, a most peculiar microclimate provides us with 300 days of sun a year... We live only 40km from the notorious city of Carcassonne and 18km from the sparkling carnival city Limoux. Also, enjoy the ever present company of the mysterious mountain Bugarach.

This makes our gîtes an ideal all year round base for family holidays, groups of friends who want an adventurous getaway from it all, and even for romantics looking for a short break. As from 2010 smaller or big walks with our cute donkeys will be possible.
