The best sunset view and lovely large house with pool

We had a great stay and there's plenty to see relatively nearby. Lots of kitchen equipment, wifi was fine and the pool was a great size. The views were amazing too. definitely follow the advice of the owners to view nearby ancient villages and we went quite far out one day to Carcassone as it's incredible but a 2 hour drive. Lots local though. The supermarket around 15 mins drive away too. Recommended!

A wonderful stay

A beautiful house in a beautiful and quiet area. Nice views. Lots of space in and arround the house. Very nice and large swimmingpool. Beds were for a few of us (allmost 2 meters and 95+ kilograms) too small and could have been a bit firmer. Communication with owner was very fine. We had a very nice stay and a wonderful holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Anne Cadman

We bought La Poumayrette the year my third child was born and it became a wonderful family holiday home for many years as the children were growing up. Nowadays they visit with their friends and are keener on climbing than building dens in the forest! I live in Devon - so obviously have an affinity with the south west - and visit La Poumayrette regularly throughout the year. My main challenge is the garden! Temperatures can reach 40 in the summer and plunge to - 15 in the winter. Add the attentions of the deer and the wild boar and you can see the challenge! A big thank you to all the guests who care for it during their holiday.

Why they chose this property

We travelled extensively in France before buying the house. I just love the area: it's relaxed, unspoilt and local people are very welcoming. Lying beside the pool watching the buzzards and listening to the crickets is my idea of heaven!

What makes this property unique

La Poumayrette has something special to offer in every season. Summer's long hot days are wonderful, but in autumn you can hear the bellow of the rutting stags and their clashing antlers, and in Spring and early Summer the meadows are full of orchids and other wild flowers. I suppose what I love above all is that sitting on the terrace with a glass of wine in my hand I have spectacular views down the valley for over 50 kilometres without another house or human being in sight!
