We spent a very pleasant week in a comfortable, well-equipped, very quiet cottage. Many activities are offered (swimming pool, tour of the estate, mountain bike rental, etc.) and the region's heritage is very rich. Thanks to Mr. Graham and his entire team.

We spent a wonderful week in Le Moulin at Chateau St Jacques d’Albas with our 3 teens in August 2022. A beautiful, peaceful setting in an authentic vineyard, ideal for unwinding, evening strolls in warm breezes or relaxing by the pool. Spacious, homely, clean, accommodation, while teens enjoyed the fine well maintained pool and tennis court. Spent an entertaining hour with the discerning owner Graham who called in to welcome us, he has plenty of recommendations for local cuisine and tips for visits to Narbonne (1.5hr) and Carcassonne (15min). Included in our stay was an excellent wine-tasting experience with the very knowledgeable Martine along with a tour of the wine-making facility. We took home 6 cases of their excellent produce! Highly recommended, would love to return in the future.
