Location description
The villa is one a small group of cut stone houses built in the traditional style around a lovely courtyard. Beautifully appointed to the highest standards and fully equipped with every modern convenience the villa is just a few minutes’ walk to the pretty village of Durban. Located in the heart of the Corbieres, Villa La Cascade overlooks a range of beautiful hills that stretch north of the Spanish border. Vineyards, ancient monasteries and medieval castles punctuate the landscape whilst the golden beaches of the Mediterranean are just a short drive away.
Other activities
This is Cathar country – one of the most inspiring and dramatic landscapes in Europe. Located in the heart of the picturesque Corbieres hills, Villa La Cascade is just perfect for either an activity packed holiday or a relaxing getaway. Within a short distance there are the ancient monasteries at Lagrasse and Fontfroide, medieval castles at Queribus and Peyrepertuse, the historic walled city of Carcassonne and the beautiful Canal du Midi meandering through the countryside north of the hills.
Local events
the thriving market towns of Narbonne and Beziers provide a wide range of shops and services, whilst the city of Perpignan offers a vibrant mix of influences – more Catalan than French in atmosphere. Swimming and wind-surfing are available in the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean at Cap Leucate, just 30 minutes away. The snowy peaks of the Pyrenees rise dramatically the south and a range of winter sports are available in ski resorts only a 2 hour drive away. Golf, tennis, horse-riding and sailing are within easy reach and the hills are criss-crossed by lovely walks for every level, all with magnificent views to the foothills of the Pyrenees.
Down the hill just 5 minutes walk away is the village of Durban - a typically southern French affair, with a café, supermarket, bank, pharmacy and of course the local cave cooperative. The African Reserve at Sigean is one of the most highly rated wildlife parks in Europe and is a just 25 minutes drive from Villa La Cascade. The reserve provides an outstanding range of wildlife from lions, elephant, rhino and cheetahs and many more animals - all to be seen in a convincingly natural environment.
Tourist attractions
Castles
Rising out of the Languedoc plain and guarding the old border between France and Aragon, the Cathar castles are not to be missed. Like ancient sentinels they gaze across a landscape barely changed since medieval times. Within a short drive of Villa La Cascade you can visit Queribus, Termes, Peyrepertuse and a host of other stunning monuments, each with a unique and often tragic history. Today, they are visible reminders of when this part of France echoed to the sound of horses’ hooves and cannon.

Guestbook
Languedoc Villa Perfection with a Pool
This is a really beautiful house in a great location and it ticked so many of the boxes for our holiday. For starters the villa is so lovely and the photos barely do it justice. It’s very well furnished, nice and spacious and has everything you’d need. It was also spotlessly clean and we were made very welcome on our arrival.
Valerie was also very helpful in answering all our questions in advance and the directions and check in were all highly professional.
The villa location is excellent – just a short walk to the village, easy to get to from a range of motorways and airports and there’s loads to do in the area. More than anything though, the views from the house are just gorgeous. We really think we chose well and we spent a lovely fortnight admiring probably the best view from a holiday villa we’ve ever experienced. We agreed that France in the imagination and the real thing are sometimes quiet different but this was the real south of France!
We flew in to Carcassonne for our holiday.As a base for Narbonne and the coast Villa La Cascade is ideal and the little villages in the area are all very pretty. The house has wifi, the bedrooms are en-suite and outside the seated dining areas are a great place to relax and take in the scenery. When we were there it was hot and sunny and the garden was a real haven with great views of Durban Corbičres castle – the old fortress is just like something out of the middle ages!
If you are looking for a really relaxing holiday in higher standard of accommodation than normal (and in a convenient location) with outstanding views than Villa La Cascade really does have it all and we would recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing break.
