This interesting, nicely situated property could become, after complete renovation, one of the nicest properties around Carcassonne. The large buildings would be ideal for a first class B&B and/or Gite business with horse riding facilities.
This property will be a jewel, in a beautiful romantic country setting!

Old trees and several walking tracks in the wood, one of them leading to a belvedere overlooking a small river in a rocky environment. All quite romantic.

But, once the renovation has been completed, it will - again – be one of the most attractive properties in the region.
