If you want to experience true French village life in
a quaint comfortable home you cannot do better
than this lovely French home. The home radiates a
feeling of comfort and homeiness, just the thing
after a full day exploring the Pyrenees countryside.
You are in the center of Quillan, just a few doors
from the rushing Aude River with restaurants,
bakeries and the Tourist Office just steps away. We
loved market day, the surrounding French villages
and the very friendly people who tolerated my very
limited French with a smile. We can't wait to return! |

| It was a lovely place to stay. The house is charming and well equipped, the beds and pillows were comfy (a real treat!), the bathrooms new and spotless. The very pretty village has good bakeries and other shops in easy walking distance, plus fresh food markets twice a week, making self-catering a pleasure. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone else - unless they had problems climbing stairs, as the bedrooms are on the second and third floors. We would have liked to stay longer! |

The owner was wonderfully responsive and helpful as we prepared for our trip, and our time in Quillan. A lot of care is evident in the house--comfortable furnishings and very clean. A special treat in this rural village was the town's pre-celebration of July 14th. From our window, we were treated to amazing fireworks over the old ruins. We were astounded that the fireworks were so extensive and beautiful, given the size of the town. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the understated Canal Restaurant!

| Our stay in Quillan was fabulous! Located in the beautiful Pyrenees mountains, ancient hiking trails that lead into the surrounding foothills are easily accessible from the front door. Also only a few blocks away is the store, post office, laundrymatt, and many restaurants. The house itself is beautiful. Celine and David have done an amazing job remodeling. The house has great amenities and was very comfortable. Additionally, for those of us who could not afford to eat out every night, the kitchen is perfect, everything you need to cook a full meal is there! |

Lovely old house in a great location in the village centre (the square was once the site of an old monastery). The house is very comfortable and is ideally situated close to restaurants and bars. It is also very close to the River Aude, which you can hear rushing past as you lie in bed having probably consumed too much foie gras, cassoulet and the excellent local wine.
all in all a fantastic place to visit. |

What a wonderful experience, and a great house. We really felt like part of the community. People were nice to us and even put up with our mangling of their language (but we tried to speak it, that goes a long way). The house was beside the river and only two streets away from the best patio/bar in the village "Le Palace" beside the river.
We loved Market day, the Jazz festival (free) and just being able to shop, and explore all the way around the valley. We even went to Spain one day for lunch, the coast road is astonishing. We couldn't have asked for a more wonderful experience and after the bustle of Paris it was most welcome. Thanks to Kelly, Celine and David for their kindness and warm welcome. |

| I have traveled to Europe before, but have never had an opportunity like this to really experience the culture. Listening to the church bells and meeting the wonderful citizens of Quillan will be a memory we will cherish forever. The home was comfortable and modern. It was like a home away from home. Quillan was a great place to be staying because it has the comforts of a larger village and allows you to explore all the sites of the majestic valley. Thanks David and Celine for a wonderful experience! |
