Gite Jade - Rural Gite on a vineyard in Fitou region
Cottage with 2 Bedrooms, Sleeps 4
This countryside retreat in the Fitou region is situated adjacent to the Maison de Maitre on an organic wine-producing 'domaine' on the edge of the village of Cacastel-des-Corbieres about 30kms south of Narbonne. The domaine owners will share with you their love of the wine produced from almost 30 acres of vines, all with Appellation d'Origine Controllee - AOC Fitou, Corbieres, Rivesaltes and Muscat de Rivesaltes.
Stone walls, terracotta tiles, rush-matting and period furniture blended with modern give this gite a rustic feel. You can savour life as it has always been in this unspoiled beautiful region of France.
Whilst in a rural setting, you are in the midst of Cathar castle country and yet only 25 minutes drive away from the Mediterranean beaches. It is only a short walk to the village of Cascastel.
