Two bedroomed ground floor gite in renovated fermette within a Minervoise village Gite is ideal for families
Vacation Rental Description
Stay in part of a recently renovated fermette within the village of Badens. Sample the flavours of the area with locally made patisseries and locally produced wine, all while sitting in the walled patio area surrounded by fragrant flowers and herbs and overlooking vinyards. This ground floor gite is ideal for families with young children or those with mobility problems.  
The property is situated within a village surrounded by vineyards, the village has a boulangerie, bar, post office, hairdresser, butchers and garage. Within the village there are also many wine producers which offer tasting of locally produced wine. For the younger members of the party there is a good play area a few minutes walk from the gite, which has two excellent climbing areas, one for younger children as well as one for older children.  
Using Badens as your base it is possible to spend many days sampling the culinary delights of the area, learning about the Cathar history by visiting legendary fortresses and castles or enjoying galleries and museums. Alternatively, a boat trip on the canal du Midi or a swim in the Lac de la Cavayere will help you to relax. 
The town of Trebes (4km) with its abundance of flowers has much to offer visitors with many restaurants, supermarkets and shops including chemist, butchers, banks, English bookshop and a Toursit Information Office. Within Trebes there are also tennis courts and a covered swimming pool. It is also possible to take a trip along the Canal du Midi (included in the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1996) which is extremely relaxing. 
A trip to the area would not be complete without a visit to Carcassonne (both Le Cite and lower town) to learn about the local history and marvel at the impressive architecture and buildings. The breathtaking firework display which takes place on the 14th July is not to be missed and can be seen for miles around. 
If walking around historic towns or buildings is not to your liking, you could visit the Ostich Park, Les Aigles de la Cite (with its display of falconary) or the Australian Park to name just a few local attractions close to Badens/Carcassonne.
