This B & B has a great location to visit the Cité Médiévale. The breakfast is very good, and the owner, although she speaks little English is very helpful and gave us several tips. The path of the B & B to Cité is surrounded by vines, which guarantees great pictures. Two days are enough to meet the region.

We stayed for 2 nights at Ecuries de Sainte-Croix and loved it. Rustic and rural and very easy to find once you have found the main gate to the old City. Finding the main gate however can be a bit of a challenge, but once you have it's a doddle.

We left the car at the B&B and had a lovely walk (about 2km max) to the old city through the vineyards. This also saved around 20 euros in daily parking charges in the car parks by the main gate. We only used the car to head back to Carcassone in the evening for for a meal.

Our room was of a good size, clean and perfectly adequate for our stay. Breakfast in Madame Huck's house was a hearty one of homemade jams and fresh croissants/bread, cereals, cold meats, cheeses and lovely fresh coffee.

We would disagree with the comments for a need to speak French. Madame Huck's English is better than my basic French and although neither of us were anywhere near fluent we were able to converse perfectly well enough. All part of the enjoyment and adventure. Madame Huck also gave us ideas of other places to visit and even lent us some of her own guide books during our stay. On leaving she recommended we visited Minerve on the next stage of our French tour. What a gem. Thankyou!

We stayed one night at this B&B in the beautiful city of Carcassonne. Although our GPS had a slightly hard time finding it, there were signs and with a bit of luck we came across it and were pleasantly surprised. Our room was big, clean, cool and quiet. There was a little bit of a language barrier between us and the caretaker on duty when we arrived as we don't speak much french and no spanish. In the end everything was sorted out and we enjoyed our stay. The continental breakfast which was included in our room rate was delicious and the croissants were amazing. We were driving so it was easy to get from the B&B to the medievil city but I'm not sure how you would get there if you weren't driving. Definately recommend when in Carcassonne.

The location was easy to find as it was only a 3 minute drive from the car park outside the Citadel in Carcassone. The farmhouse sits surrounded by vineyards with a panoramic view of Carcassonne and the surrounding area. We received a warm welcome from Genevieve on arrival and were very pleased with our 2 room accommodation. The swimming pool and hammock in the garden looked very inviting, although we didn't use them ourselves. The room in which breakfast was taken was much darker and more cluttered with furniture than the picture on their website suggests, but the quality of the typical French style breakfast was more than adequate with plenty of bread, croissants and preserves, and was able to be enjoyed at a leisurely pace. Genevieve was most helpful in giving us recommendations for places to visit in the area. Her suggestions turned out to be perfect for us.
