The house is in a superb location offering something for everyone. Every Monday there is a traditional French farmers market, where you can taste the locally grown and often hand made produce. Through out the year there are numerous fetes and festivals both in Mirepoix and the surrounding villages, including several night markets. There are also the great firework celebrations for bastille day in the nearby town of Carcassonne. You can visit the historic Cathar castles and explore the Pyrenees. There are a range of outdoor activity centres offering climbing, canoeing, windsurfing and sailing as well as organised treks into the mountains. For a more relaxed approach, there are the lakes Puivert and Montbel and the not too distant beaches of Narbonne. In winter the ski slopes beckon just 45 mins away in Mont d'olmes, and Ax les Thermes and Andorre an hour away also.
To get here:
There are numerous airports supported by budget airlines: Carcassonne 35mins, Toulouse 1hr, Montpellier and Perpignan 1hr 20mn and Barcelona 2hrs. The TGV travels from Paris to Toulouse or you can take a steady drive from the UK straight down the autoroutes. There is also the possibility of taking the ferry to Santander in Spain and driving across the edge of the Pyrenees to Mirepoix (about five hours)
