Le Domaine Gabachou, an eighteenth century former farmhouse, is uniquely situated on the tree lined banks of the famous Canal du Midi.

Set in landscaped gardens that lead down to the tow path, there are plenty of quiet corners to enjoy a quick snooze in the sunshine or a glass of the local wine.

Alternatively sit by the pool from where you can hear the gentle ‘whoosh’ as the canal boats glide by or take cover under the shade of the ancient chesnut trees at the front of the house.

Rolling fields and acres of vineyards punctuate the surrounding countryside, in the heart of the Languedoc, – and yet the property is just a 20 minute drive from the unique walled ‘cite’ of Carcassonne.

Explore Cathar Castles, La Montagne Noire, mediaeval towns and colourful markets, all within easy reach.

For the 2010 season we have included use of modern cycles and, subject to status and insurance, hiring by the day for reasonable charges, a 1948 MG TD or a 1975 Panther J72 (both right-hand drive), or our small canal boat.

The gites, La Maison D’Olives and Le Tournesol offer peace and tranquillity, coupled with all the comforts you would expect in a real ‘home from home’.

Each gite has its own private seating area, but guests are of course free to enjoy the 2.5 acre/1 hectare garden and swimming pool.
