6. Villa Castelnaudary

View Listing and Availability>>

The revered dish of South West France is the hearty cassoulet. The original and definitive recipe of the rich, slow-cooked casserole is attributed to the small town of Castelnaudary, on the banks of the Canal du Midi. Or so its residents would claim. The Toulousains, however, beg to differ. Their subtle variations, they insist, are the key to the true cassoulet. And then there are the Carcassonne. The region is accustomed to conflict. For nearly 6000 years this strategically-prized land has been fought over by Celts, Romans, Visigoths, and Saracens. This, too, is Cathar country - historically proud and independent-minded - feted in the works of Rostand and Dumas. Lying in the rolling foothills of the Pyrenees, below the animated village of Fanjeaux, is the Domaine de la Hille: a charming, restored farmhouse with origins dating back to the 11th century. The 8-bedroom property lies at the center of ten acres of manicured grounds and parkland, surrounding a shimmering Bisazza-tiled swimming pool and a soft-impact shaded tennis court.

8. Villa Corbiere

View Listing and Availability>>

Far from the razzmatazz and glitz of the Côte d'Azur, the Corbière region is a quiet land of contrasting landscapes and historical masterpieces, including Cathar castles and medieval Abbeys. Less than an hour from long sandy beaches of the coast, the romantic Canal de Midi, and the fortified city of Carcassonne, the region has a lot to offer the adventurous and curious traveler. At the elegant Le Clos des Vignes, lazing by the pool with a glass of Corbières red is a perfect reward for a day of exploring, in a home that combines historic location with contemporary style.

Considered by some as the last truly 'secret' region of France, travel over panoramic passes and green ridges on the trail of the mysterious Cathars, a religious sect who sought refuge in the perched castles and fortified towns still dotting the countryside today in the foothills of the Pyrénées. Discover Le Clos des Vignes, a former wine cave transformed into a luxurious retreat set on 120 stunning acres. Resurrected as an expansive country home with large, bright spaces, the interior design pays tribute to the surrounding landscape of lavender fields and thyme, both fantastic medicinal plants. Every detail - marble and cream-colored rooms, coppery fixtures, and elegant fabrics- was chosen to respects the colors found in the natural environment and provide guests with sumptuous comfort.
