Description for Gite

Welcome to the charming village of Minervois Pouzols! Located in the Aude region of Languedoc-Roussillon, this village of 320 inhabitants is dominated by its ancient castle and is conveniently situated on the Route Minervoise between Béziers, Narbonne, and Carcassonne.

As a stepping stone into the Cathar country in southern Minervois, Pouzols Minervois is renowned for its stunning scenery and exceptional wines. With its authentic character, this village has preserved the charm of the Cathar country and is only 35 minutes away from the medieval city of Carcassonne.

Climbing to the top of the village, you will discover numerous remains of fortifications that date back to the ninth century, showcasing the rich history of Pouzols Minervois. Another noteworthy attraction is the parish church of Saint Saturnin, a Romanesque church in Lombard style, classified as a historical monument in 1961.

Nestled in old stone buildings dedicated to wine-making, our two spacious houses (each accommodating 8 people and measuring 200 m2) offer a peaceful and tranquil retreat. Both properties are listed and highly recommended in the esteemed "Charming Bed 2008" guide.

Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, and just a few miles away from the Cave Cooperative of Olive Oil "The Oulibo," you will have the opportunity to taste the exceptional wines from the Cave Cooperative Pouzols and the private cellar of Mr. Bernard ALBERT, a national wine competition medalist.

During your stay in one of our lodges, you can explore the village and embark on a journey to discover the Cathar country, its fascinating history, its vineyards, and its regional specialties. Additionally, there are a variety of excellent restaurants in the vicinity, ranging from gourmet establishments to charming taverns along the Canal du Midi, ensuring that your taste buds will be delighted.
