Description

Surrounded by vineyards and fields of sunflowers, Le Trabet is located only fifteen minutes away from Carcassonne with its many activities and cultural sites.

The large infinity pool (7x15 meters) is shared with two other smaller gîtes ;there are 3 separate lounging areas for a maximum occupancy of 15 guests. We count 8 guests for L'Olivier plus a maximum total of 7 for the two smaller houses.

Getting around

Arrive by car, then relax and walk, hike or bike - there are many tiny paths and small country roads to explore. The Montagne Noire is ideal for a more ambitious ride, or you can go along the canal at a more leisurely pace: a convenient picnic basket is attached to one of the bikes.

“Friendly welcoming owners, well-equipped property”

Reviewed 21 Aug 2017

We felt very welcome at Le Trabet and the owners and property maintenance staff were consistently friendly, polite and helpful. The accommodation is as described and well equipped - everything worked and when small issues arose during our stay they were dealt with promptly. It is perfect place for a relaxing family stay. The peaceful pool is a highlight with comfortable sun loungers and plenty of sunshades. Inside the property, the thick stone walls keep things pleasantly cool (not having air con was a worry before we arrived but it really wasn't an issue except on one particularly hot sticky night) and the furniture is comfortable and practical. Thank you very much!

“Perfect french estate with lovely owners”

Reviewed 20 Jan 2016

The property and the owners were delightful! The owners were very helpful and supportive when planning our week in France. They recommended great antique stores, restaurants and winerys. Especially the dinner which was organized on the estate was exceptional! Lovely, clean and spacious rooms which are all individually and very lovingly decorated. Waking up in the morning with a great view of the estate, made for a perfect start to every day. There is a nice pool area and yard to relax in after some sightseeing in Carcassone, winetasting or antique shopping in the area. After our week there, we were sad to leave and we will definately be back!

“Relaxing getaway in charming French town”

Reviewed 7 Jan 2016

Loved our gite at Le Trabet. The hosts were lovely and inviting, the property was charming (a small fruit orchard, a big yard, and a beautiful swimming pool) and the nearby towns were great to explore. Carcassonne is a great place to check out with quite a few options for food and sightseeing (I traveled with my husband and two year old daughter). Nearby Le Trabet is L'Ambrosia, a Michelin-rated restaurant with great prices—definitely worth a visit!

Le Trabet is beautiful, everything is very well maintained and clean. The pool is a great size and the gardens are beautiful. Also the Lohner family that owns it are great. We had delicious breakfast with them and dinners! We had the best of time! I recommend it to everyone I know!
