We had booked a one night stay for the property's proximity to Carcassone airport. The room was lovely with kettle, teabags and fridge. If we had arrived at @ 4-5pm we would have enjoyed a relaxed walk around the Domaine and felt confident about driving back to Carcassone (30 mins) for an evening meal as we were told that there are no restaurants in any of the nearer villages. Unfortunately we were delayed and although we had phoned ahead to say that we wouldn't be arriving until 19.30 when we arrived there were no staff and we had to phone to find out how to access our room. We were at fault for not timing our journey better but we were surprised that this large Domaine had no residential staff. The only other pertinent comment we would make is that you need a good satnav to find it as the tracks to it are many, very narrow with very few passing places or opportunities to turn round.
