14 rue de la Taillanderie - La Livinière

Come and rejuvenate yourself at Casa Lavineira, a charming, cozy and elegant house located in a village amongst olive orchards and world renowned vineyards (A.O.C. La Livinière), between the Mediterranean sea and the Black Mountain, a stones throw away from the Cathar castles, the Canal du Midi, the Cité de Carcassonne, the medieval city of Minerve, the Narbo Via museum of Narbonne, and in the heart of the Minervois wine making region. Choose a Wellness retreat to get pampered and to bring back the magic that's within you, or come and spend your vacation exploring our magnificent region. You will discover incredible sites thanks to our exclusive sightseeing itineraries. Casa Lavineira is the ideal vacation home and retreat for an unforgettable stay with your partner, family, or by yourself. Our medieval village has all the amenities necessaries for your stay (restaurant, café, bakery, grocery store…), and numerous walking trails start almost right out the front door to walk through our magical landscapes composed of vineyards, olive orchards and our enchanting garrigue. On a clear day, you will see the Pyrenees mountains and the gorgeous Canigou, a sacred mountain. Casa Lavineira gets its name from the old occitan Casa (house) and one of the original names of the village of La Livinière (Lavineira) dating back to 1069. You'll be seduced by the way we renovated this old vegetable peddler's house (they would sell through the big window downstairs), keeping a good bit of the beautiful original stone walls, and pairing them with exquisite travertine tile, environmentally friendly clay covered walls and wood. The downstairs ceiling is a rare but typical "French style ceiling" which we restored to its original appearance. We furnished Casa Lavineira with details that blend in with the house, but also add special touches which make guests feel right at home in a cozy, warm and charming space. Whether you like exploring, or vegging out, or anything in between, Casa Lavineira is the perfect place for you to escape the world and get closer to nature.

Retreat in the true sense of the word!
Our stay was magical- from the guided walking tour of the village (love the old sycamore trees), winery tour, and view of the mountains to the quaint bakery and of course our gete! Three floors of comfort and charm with everything you need to feel at home. We will definitely return!!

Perfect cozy stay in charming maison de village
My husband and I spend 17 days in Chris' lovely maison de village in La Liviniere over New Years and into January. The house is decorated with great charm, and suited our needs perfectly. The two bedrooms are not large, but perfectly sufficient, and very comfortable. The bathroom is very small, but cute and quirky, with exposed stone walls. We enjoyed the two restaurants in La Liviniere, both within a walk of several minutes, and would also recommend La Cave, in the neighbouring village of Siran. One of the best bottles of wine we had came from a vigneronne at the bottom of the street, and there are apparently two dozen others right in the village. Chris was easy to communicate with, and very helpful overall. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend L'Oliviere.

Languedoc Vacation Chris and Jackie Pinard
You will find your home to be amazing.. New yet old world charm…washer/dryer so don't pack heavy.. Tassimo espresso machine.. Fully equipped kitchen.. This is first floor.. 2nd floor are the 2 bedrooms with ohhh so comfy beds and bathroom.. 3rd floor has your tv, computer, sofa, chairs, and sink all in a large beautiful open area.. Views from windows look onto the old street.. Could see the gorgeous full moon from bedroom window and hear the soft chime of the church bells…as Jackie said.."pat yourself over your heart to seal this memory forever". Jackie and Chris were always there if I needed them and always so gracious to offer suggestions on superb places to dine and visit…the hiking with lunch is a must.. Chris is an excellent chef…another is dine by the Canal du Midi and watch the house boats drift by…Tuesday market in Olonzac is a must to feast your senses on…day trips to the Cathar castles/mountains are a must.. 2 weeks are only a taste of what the real South of France has to offer…come and you will want to return !!!

Perfect Base Camp for relaxing in the South of France!
Getting to the destination from the Midwest (USA), took a layover, but well worth the effort! I especially enjoyed the village, and hiking around there. So peaceful. The difficult part of the trip was deciding which day-trip itinerary to use, so many great choices! We were affected by rainy weather, which was very, very unusual, on some afternoons. The wine has never tasted so good. What a great place to unwind and rejuvenate. I will certainly return. I would actually like to hike more in the Pyrenees!
