About the Holiday Home

The 16x8 metre pool

Domaine de Clément is a 17th century stone watermill and its outbuildings, which have been converted into a private estate containing six separate holiday homes and the owners’ house.

The property overlooks the trout stream which once powered the mill, and is set in a lush valley surrounded by mature trees. It is a short walk to the nearby village and to wild wooded countryside.

The living area in Moulin-Bas

The mill building itself has been converted and divided into a pair of two-storey homes, Moulin-Bas and Moulin Haut. Moulin-Bas sleeps six guests in three bedrooms, while Moulin-Haut can accommodate up to eight in four bedrooms.

The other four gîtes on the property accommodate from two to eight guests. Each unit has its own private terrace with outdoor furniture and a barbecue.

The gardens and stream

All guests share a large 16x8 metre outdoor swimming pool, which is fenced and set apart from all of the houses. Sunbeds with parasols line the terraces by the pool.

The extensive grounds include plenty of open grassy space, shady trees, and a games area with soccer goals, table tennis, and badminton. Free wireless internet access is available to guests - please contact the owners for details.

Special features:	• Pool on the property • Pets welcomed • Bilingual assistance available on site
Swimming pool:	16x8 metre outdoor pool, shared with other guests on the property

About the Area

Domaine de Clément is set amid woods

It’s a short walk to the pretty nearby village of Fontiers-Cabardès, which can supply everything needed for day-to-day living. The village has a grocery, a post office, and a café-bar-restaurant. Another restaurant is five minutes’ drive. Also available nearby are horse riding, tennis courts, and bicycle hire.

There are numerous freshwater lakes nearby for swimming, and there are many quiet country roads and hiking trails for cyclists and walkers.

About the Region

The nearby city of Carcassonne

The fortress city of Carcassonne is 25 minutes away. Founded by the Romans, this city has a rich medieval history and is a UNESCO world heritage site. The whole region is dotted with ancient castles and monuments, many dating from the turbulent Hundred Years’ War and the Cathar suppression of the middle ages.

The Languedoc region produces some excellent wines, and the vineyards often welcome visitors for tastings. There are two 18-hole golf courses within a half hour. The beaches of the Mediterranean and the Pyrénées mountain range are an hour away, and the Costa Brava, on Spain’s north-eastern coast, is two hours.
