There are far reaching panoramic views from some rooms inside the gite across the valley towards the snow capped Pyrenees. Relax with a glass of wine on your outdoor sofa whilst the children play on the terrace and make friends with other children or play the owners cats. You can take a swim in the heated pool, cook delicious local food on the BBQ or in the well equipped modern kitchen. In the gite you'll find all the home comforts, including a log burner for cosy winter evenings. Whether you want a romantic getaway or family friendly holiday you can find it at Les Coumayres, the perfect place to relax and unwind in wild beautiful nature.

Gite Les Cathares has a private terrace with comfy sofa to watch the stars on. There are table and chairs for six people. Inside the rustic gite you'll find a spacious living room overlooking an open plan kitchen and dining area with charming exposed beams and stonework everywhere. The main bedroom is at the top of the house with it's own bathroom and private roof terrace where you have incredible views over the valley or the stars at night. A second bedroom has a double and two single beds with a further bathroom. The kitchen has gas hob and electric oven to cook the produce you buy from the excellent local markets, or if the weather is nice you can use the BBQ on your private terrace.
