Horseback Riding is available nearby and the views are amazing. Take a short trail ride or sign up for multiple days. Carcassonne is a must see and just one hour away. The medieval walled town lies on the right bank of the River Aude and is featured on UNESCO’s World Heritage list. It has 52 towers and 2 rings of town walls making a total of 3 km of battlements.

Lovely old house in a great location in the village centre (the square was once the site of an old monastery). The house is very comfortable and is ideally situated close to restaurants and bars. It is also very close to the River Aude, which you can hear rushing past as you lie in bed having probably consumed too much foie gras, cassoulet and the excellent local wine.

all in all a fantastic place to visit.

What a wonderful experience, and a great house. We really felt like part of the community. People were nice to us and even put up with our mangling of their language (but we tried to speak it, that goes a long way). The house was beside the river and only two streets away from the best patio/bar in the village "Le Palace" beside the river.
We loved Market day, the Jazz festival (free) and just being able to shop, and explore all the way around the valley. We even went to Spain one day for lunch, the coast road is astonishing. We couldn't have asked for a more wonderful experience and after the bustle of Paris it was most welcome. Thanks to Kelly, Celine and David for their kindness and warm welcome.

I have traveled to Europe before, but have never had an opportunity like this to really experience the culture. Listening to the church bells and meeting the wonderful citizens of Quillan will be a memory we will cherish forever. The home was comfortable and modern. It was like a home away from home. Quillan was a great place to be staying because it has the comforts of a larger village and allows you to explore all the sites of the majestic valley. Thanks David and Celine for a wonderful experience!
