Set in a spacious garden with pine trees in a small Aude village, La Pinède is a delightful holiday home that brings together the comforts of modern living with the gentle rhythms of rural France. Thoughtfully arranged as two architect-designed villas just 20 metres apart, this spacious abode is tailor-made for extended families or groups of friends seeking both connection and privacy.
Within the expansive grounds, manicured lawns unfurl beneath mature pines and fruit trees, offering dappled shade and space to roam. At the centre, a private swimming pool glistens beneath the southern sun, flanked by a sun terrace with loungers. There’s also outdoor dining areas by both houses.
Each villa is fully self-contained, complete with modern open-plan kitchens, a living-dining space and French doors that invite the outdoors in. In total, there are five bedrooms and four bathrooms (three en-suites) offering ample flexibility for different group dynamics.
La Pinède lies just outside the tiny village of Bellegarde-du-Razès, perfectly placed between the market town of Mirepoix and the legendary medieval city of Carcassonne, both rich in history and local flavour. Sample world-class sparkling wine in Limoux, explore ancient abbeys along the Cathar trail or cycle beside the Canal du Midi beneath leafy canopies.
Whether you’re here to explore the region’s culinary riches, trace its fascinating past or simply spend slow days beside the pool, La Pinède offers a welcoming base for your Occitanie adventure.
