Located within a 18-acre estate of vines, woodland and open fields, Domaine de Nérige offers a stunning escape with sweeping vistas stretching all the way to the snow-capped Pyrénées.

Just 30 minutes south of the UNESCO-listed city of Carcassonne and a mere 10km from the beautiful market town of Limoux, this idyllic retreat blends privacy and easy access to some of the region’s most celebrated sights. Whether you’re seeking sunny days in the garden or adventures in the surrounding countryside, the location is nothing short of exceptional. For those keen to keep active, a riding stable is only four minutes away, while tennis enthusiasts can enjoy courts in both Saint-Martin-de-Villeréglan and nearby Cépie.

Limoux (10km) is a delight to explore, with its charming central square, traditional restaurants, bustling cafés, a bakery and a weekly market offering irresistible local delicacies. It’s also home to Blanquette de Limoux, a sparkling wine said to pre-date Champagne, offering superb taste at a fraction of the price.

A little further afield, Carcassonne (25km) promises a wealth of experiences – from atmospheric medieval shows and summer festivals to Michelin-quality dining and lively street cafés. Golfers can take advantage of the 18-hole course with club hire and driving range, while nature lovers will relish the endless walking and hiking trails that criss-cross the surrounding countryside. The nearby Canal du Midi is perfect for cycling or simply lingering over a long, lazy lunch at one of its waterside auberges.

History and wine connoisseurs will be equally captivated. Explore Saint-Hilaire, just 16km away, with its ancient abbey linked to the Cathar trail, or tour the vineyards of the prestigious Minervois and Corbières appellations. The area’s gastronomic reputation is well-earned – even celebrated chef John Burton Race filmed his acclaimed “French Leave” series here.

For a day by the sea, the golden sands of Narbonne-Plage are less than 90 minutes away, while the Spanish border lies just over 2 hours by car for a cross-cultural adventure.

With such a rich blend of natural beauty, cultural treasures and indulgent pleasures, Domaine de Nérige is the perfect base from which to experience the very best of southern France.
