24 rue de la Gaffe- Accommodation in Carcassonne
Our house is situated within the truly medieval Labyrinth
of alleys and small streets beneath the Cite ramparts in the
picturesque Trivalle district. The area is
under the jurisdiction of the Architects for the Historic
Monuments of France who impose strict building controls to maintain
the historic nature of the area. The house is therefore renovated to
a very high standard in keeping with its historic surroundings.
Although rue de la Gaffe is a small street it is
accessible by car for unloading with free parking nearby. However it
is not essential to have a car as the house is within a few minutes
walk from shops, restaurants, markets, river, rail & bus
stations, canal du Midi & other attractions including the
Historic Cite.
The accommodation
is stylishly refurbished incorporating natural features such as
exposed beams with traditional French finishes on walls to maximize the feeling of rustic grandeur, while all
modern conveniences have been incorporated into the design.
The large covered roof terrace ( 16m2) has
unparalleled views of Carcassonne whilst allowing all
year round dining alfresco.
