Photos and Description of this Carcassonne holiday apartment One double Bedroom apartment, sleeps two, Central location, off Place Carnot

Apartment Cartier Bresson is one of three beautifully restored apartments located in the heart of Carcassonne old town La Bastide, just off the market square in Place Carnot. Each of the individually decorated apartments occupies one entire floor of the property and named after a famous French photographer.. The apartments are perfectly located for the weekly market, shops and alfresco dining but quiet enough to escape the bustle and haste of the 20th century. The property dates from the 1730's and the owners have kept the character of the property but with all the benefits of modern fittings, antique furniture and fine art. From the moment you walk into the apartments you will be transported to the elegance and romance of 18th century France, but with all modern comforts. Huge beds, Egyptian cotton sheets and duck down pillows, antique furniture and modern kitchens. The apartments are perfect for couples wanting a romantic break or for small group bookings of up to three couples.

Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Carcassonne, France

Carcassonne La Cite: Carcassonne is has one of the most beautiful fairy tale castles to be found anywhere in the world. It is the cultural and historical capital of the Aude region sitting upon the Aude river and crossed by the breathtakingly beautiful Canal du Midi. During the summer it is host to innumerable festivals, and has the largest and most spectacular firework display in France on the 14th of July. Even in low season and winter there is plenty to do with the winter markets, truffle and duck fairs and antique fairs. The Carcassonne Festival takes place throughout Jul with many of the events taking place in Place Carnot.

Cathar Country: The region around Carcassonne is world famous for the Cathar history, and for the many castles that were built from the 12th to the 14th century. Many of these have survived and worth visiting especially for anyone interested in the legend and myths of the Holy Grail. Within an hour you can be walking or skiing in the mountains of the Arriege, and within two hours in the Pyrenees. The number of places to visit in one week is almost unlimited and there is plenty to occupy you in Carcassonne alone for a week.
