  • Peaceful wooded site with spectacular views over the Pyrenees
  • Within easy reach of the UNESCO-listed citadel of Carcassonne
  • Organic store selling organic wines, craft beers and local produce
Spectacular mountain views on site, and hiking trails, swimming lakes and waterfalls nearby… it’s quite possible that mix of features alone will inspire you to book a stay at Aude site Domaine de la Vitarelle. But wait, there’s more… this rural glampsite five minutes’ drive from the village of Villanière is also half an hour’s drive from Carcassonne, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that’s well worth a visit, and the area is peppered with wineries, boat trips and bike paths to explore – surely an excellent menu of activities for any hols. And as if the splendid surrounds weren’t enough, the site itself has rather a lot going for it too… including a large outdoor pool, a pétanque court and a barbecue area for evening meals with a view. The site’s grocery store doubles as a bar selling organic wines, craft beers and local produce – guests can buy themselves a tipple to sip on the large grassy outdoor seating area next to the store (a most welcome idea after returning from one of the local hiking trails, non?) Comfy accommodation is part of the package too – each unit has its own kitchen corner, private bathroom (with shower, washbasin and toilet) and an outdoor area for taking in the fresh air and fine vistas.

Local attractions

Start your explores close to home: there are several hiking and bike trails that run through the area around the park, taking in woodlands and waterfalls along the way. Several horse riding outfits are in the local area too, and the team on site can advise on winery visits and Canal du Midi boat tours if you’re after something a little more leisurely. On a warm day you may well fancy throwing yourself into the open waters of Lac de la Cavayère (half an hour’s drive) – there are swimming areas over here, with an inflatable obstacle course for the daredevils to tackle. Alongside are picnic areas, pedalo hire, a treetop adventure park and a miniature golf course, so there’s plenty to fill a full day out. Among all of this it’s worth finding time for a trip to the medieval citadel of Carcassonne (half an hour) to take in the castle, the ancient bridge and the 53 towers and gateways of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. UNESCO have given their blessing to another site locally too: the Cabrespine Cave, one of the largest chasms in the world that’s open to the public.
