South of France holiday villa with private pool, to sleep 8 in 4 bedrooms.

Weekends possible in low season contact us for details!

This very beautifully renovated large South of France village house has been cleverly designed and lovingly furnished. A young architect made full use of the large open spaces which used to be a family winery before the conversion. 

The furniture is extremely comfortable (something holiday makers tend to expect more and more from their holiday accommodation) - big modern sofas to sink into after a hard day at the beach or winetasting!

The holiday gite has a neat small walled garden of apprx 200m2 and the alarmed private pool is 8m x 3.5m.

Maison Mirouze is situated at the end of a quiet street with views of the French Corbieres countryside, yet the holiday villa is only 30-40 minutes from the South of France beaches. 

The sister property Maison-minervois with 4 bedrooms and 2 pools is nearby, ideal for a large family holiday where each family can keep their independence. 

Large South of France village house, cleverly designed and lovingly furnished.

A young architect made full use of the large open spaces which used to be a family winery before the conversion. Light plays on the exposed stone walls giving the open plan living and dining room a warm and happy feel. The colours are quite 'natural' and muted allowing the eye to appreciate the beautiful pieces of furniture and paintings that the owners enjoy collecting.
