Extremely homely
Petra, the owner was lovely and very helpful, on hand for anything you needed. The house is so homely and everything you could possibly need is there. Being in the town of Bram was wonderful, step outside the back gate and you have all conveniences you could want for. The pool was a little cool for the little one (he was only 2 to be fair) but other than that, it was great, others said a bit small but for us it was perfect, the other two children was in it everyday and loved. Dining alfresco was perfect with a large table. All the rooms were comfortable. Would certainly book again.

Our multigenerational family stayed for 2 weeks at the property and had a brilliant time. Everyone agreed that it was a real home from home, there was everything that you could think of to enjoy the stay. Very well equipped kitchen and lots of lovely toys for the children including a cute childrens bedroom complete with its own TV. As mentioned in other reviews the pool is not huge, but it is a perfect size for the children to play in and for adults to cool off. Very handy for the train and the shops, but once you are in the garden it is a very secluded and private place to relax. Petra and her team were delightful and very responsive to any queries. Thoroughly recommend.

Great house / Great owners/ Small pool
We enjoyed our stay. House is beautifull and owners coudn't be nicer. The swiming pool is much smaller that it looks on picture. (It is really small). The villlage is nothing great. But still we enjoyed a lot our stay, and Loves the house. I recommend it

A brilliant week in Bram.
First things first - the house is delightful and Petra and Paul could not be more helpful, friendly and obliging. "Coup de Coeur " is beautifully appointed, sheer hard work resulting in a residence which manages to be both comfortable and stylish. This is an old property which has been updated in all the important areas - plumbing, white goods, etc - yet retains every bit of its hard-won character. We hired a car - as suggested - which gave us easy access to Toulouse (50 mins, easy parking at Jeanne d'Arc) and Carcassone (20 mins) which will the targets for most visitors. Alternatively, the house is a four minute walk from the train station which serves both the above cities and much, much more. We cycled to Carcassonne and then got the train back, for instance. Oh, and the bike hire is reasonable, very helpful and friendly and a couple of hundred metres away. Eating. Whilst Bram itself does not have a huge array of restaurants, you're only a 20 -odd minute walk from l'Isle aux Oiseaux, a charming restaurant on the banks of the Canal du Midi. Further up towards Carcassonne is la Rive-Belle at l'écluse de Herminis, a quite pricey but tremendous lunch stop. Petra was also fantastic in recommending places to drive to, though I'll confess we often ate out at lunchtimes (Toulouse, Carcassonne, Mirepoix - all great for this) and then made use of the excellent kitchen at the property in the evening. 350g entrecotes aren't necessary, but hey...:-) Practicalities are fine; there's a useful Spar shop open from 0830 'till 1930 about fifty metres away and the Carrefour's about a five minute drive. Places to see I'd recommend: Les Abbatoirs modern art in Toulouse; Les Grottes de Limousis; of course Carcassone la Cité. We didn't make it to Castelnudary until our last day and it's a place that begs for another trip. Great lunch by the river at Brasserie la Cybele - another Petra recommendation as I remember. But I'll tell you what - just sitting still in this fabulous property isn't a bad idea either. Great work guys. Alex

Absolutely amazing- beautiful house that completely met all our needs... and more
It was a pleasure to stay in such a gorgeous property. The area is great to explore with activities from Canyoning, trawling local markets, lazing and paddle boarding on the lake and exploring historical towns. We were three generations aged between 23 and 78 and we all had a fab holiday. We cooked most evenings and enjoyed local produce sitting outside and dipping in and out of the pool. Wonderful days and perfect evenings.
