This charming, authentic 2-bed cottage is nestled in the hillside between the medieval village of Montazels and the lively market town of Espéraza in the beautiful Aude Valley, near the Corbières Massif, in the sought-after south-west of France.
The cottage is located within easy walking distance of Espéraza's shops, restaurants, cafés, bars, and famous markets. It boasts a large private swimming pool with a sunny, secluded garden with stunning views over the foothills of the Pyrenees and up towards the pretty hilltop village of Rennes-le-Château. It is perfectly situated for a relaxing holiday in the beautiful Aude Valley. A hidden gem in the South of France that enjoys an average of 300 days of sun per year!
Inside, the cottage offers a fully equipped kitchen/diner, 1 double bedroom (with king-size bed), 1 twin room, a family bathroom with bath and shower, and a spacious, sunny lounge with a wood burner, sofa-bed, tv/dvd player, Wi-Fi, iPod doc and patio doors leading out to a large, secluded terrace, ideal for al fresco dining. A further shady terrace is equipped with a bbq. The large 1/2 acre garden, which contains a beautiful fig tree and its own original well, enjoys the sun all day, and yet offers plenty of natural shade if desired. The large private pool (4.10mx8.10mx1.50 m) is surrounded by a wooden terrace in exotic wood and has sunbeds and parasols. From the garden and the pool there are stunning views up to Rennes-le-Château and over open countryside.
