We could not have had a better stay in this charming French gite. From Katie’s wonderful communication about the house and her recommendations for things to do in the area, to the pristine upkeep of the rental home and pool, to all the marvelous sights to see…our family thoroughly enjoyed our French vacation.
La pièce de vie est spacieuse et la cheminée est très appréciable en hiver ! Le gîte est au calme à proximité de la cité de Mirepoix. Présence d’une piscine et d’une terrasse qui doivent être très agréables l’été . Katie est une hôte très agréable et très disponible. Nous recommandons cet endroit
Nous avons passé 5 nuits à la Bastide de Bousignac
nos hôtes étaient supers sympas, le logement quoique assez rustique était propre et en très bon état. La maison était grande bien entretenue, agréable à vivre et la piscine était superbe. Je le conseil à tous nous y retournerions sans problème.
Merci Cathy
Good location five minutes from Mirepoix with its huge market and cafes. The surroundings are truly rural in the hills amongst woods. The house is basic with limited sound insulation between all rooms which we all found entertaining! The first floor bedrooms were both attractive and simply furnished. The kitchen was well equipped and the covered area with a bbq was great to use in the evenings, as was the newly refurbed pool. Overall an enjoyable stay thank you.

About the host
Hosted by Katie and Rich
We moved to France in 2018 with our young daughters Effie and Matilda to start a fresh new life away from the busy London lifestyle we were both growing tired of. Renovating and launching Gites de Montcabirol, our four holiday rentals was challenging at times, but it’s incredibly rewarding as it allows us to meet people from around the world and show off this amazing part of France.
Why they chose this property
With its breathtaking countryside, views of the Pyrénées and a short drive from the medieval town of Mirepoix with its bustling weekly market, bars and restaurants, Gites de Montcabirol is the ideal location to unwind and explore.
What makes this property unique
Set in its very only hamlet, sit our four individual properties each with their own private terrace. Surrounded by gardens and orchard, our large swimming pool is the perfect location to relax and unwind. We’re located in the heart of the Cathar region so there’s plenty to see and do for every age group.
