About this property
Little charming castle
Welcome to Maris House!
The Maris House is a charming house of character nestled in the heart of the Ariège and the Cathar Pyrenees.
With a rural setting and an exceptional panoramic view of the Pyrenees and the castle of Montsegur, this house with a unique style is composed of 4 bedrooms and offers living spaces with beautiful noble materials.
Located close to the tourist village of Roquefixade nestled on the mountainside (300m from the heart of the village), it is the ideal starting point for hikes and walks that will take you on the paths of the Cathar 367 trail.
You can also visit the castle of Roquefixade dating from the XIème century which overlooks the village directly starting from the path in front of the house. Facing south, you will enjoy optimal sunshine and a spectacular sunset on the Pyrenean reliefs.
The house of more than 280 m² consists of three double bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs and a triple bedroom with its bathroom on the ground floor. You can enjoy during your stay a TV room and a large living room as well as a functional kitchen and its dining room. A 180° and 3000m2 outdoor terrace will welcome your moments of relaxation and disconnection. You can stay up to 9 people.
Less than 30 km from the ski slopes and bathing areas the location of the house offers many opportunities for outdoor activities both in winter and summer. Located in the middle of Cathar country the house is ideally placed to visit the various castles of the region (Foix at 20min, Lac de Montbel 30min, Mont d'Olmes 40min ski resort, Cité de Carcassonne at 50min, Pas de la Case 1h15, Toulouse Blagnac 1h15 and Spain at 1h30).

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Jean-Barthélémy Maris
Originally from Roquefixade and Ariégeois, I live in Toulouse where I practice my profession. In love with this pretty corner of the South of France, I have at heart to discover this magnificent terroir and this beautiful surrounding nature that I rub shoulders with since my earliest childhood. The Maris House is a family home to which I am very attached and which contains a lot of history. I will ask you to preserve it and respect it as if you were staying with one of your close acquaintances.
Not living there, you will be in contact with Margaux who will manage the entire activity. It will inform you about the activities of the surroundings and will be your only and privileged contact.
Do not hesitate to ask her to organize your arrival and stay, Margaux can advise you and indicate the places you cannot miss.
I hope you enjoy this accommodation as well as I enjoy sharing it with you!
