Monthly Rentals in La Cité Médiévale, Carcassonne

This is a gorgeous apartment in the old town. It was a wonderful haven to escape to when it was crowded, and it was magical walking around the old town in the morning and evening when the crowds left. The place is exactly as depicted in the photos. The A/C was great. Fairly well furnished, but I wouldn't try to do a lot of cooking there. The bed was very comfortable. The patio is fabulous. We ate breakfast there every morning and enjoyed a glass of wine in the evening. It overlooks the dining patio of La Demeure du Cassoulet, which is such a fabulous restaurant, we ate there twice. We had difficulty finding the place. The address said #7; however, there was no #7 to be seen anywhere. I called the host, and he told me how to find it. It is basically behind you if you are looking at #8. Fortunately, we left our big suitcases in the car and just brought up what we needed, as walking two floors up the steep, narrow spiral staircase can be tricky. I highly recommend it!

Great little apartment, very convenient location right by steps up to the old town. You can see the old city from the attractive back terrace. Well equipped. Easy check in and check out. Would happily stay here again. For guests using the sofabed please note no proper door between the bedroom and the living room.

Laurent's accommodation is well located, close to the medieval city. The apartment is functional and clean. The garden and the unoverlooked terrace are a real plus. We recommend this listing and will gladly go back as soon as possible.

Just got back from a mum and son sightseeing trip to Carcassonne. We stayed 4 nights at The Secret Gardens, Matthew was a wonderful host, communicative, friendly and full of local knowledge. The accommodation was clean and spacious with a well equipped kitchen, although with such a wide choice of local restaurants and eateries we didn't feel the need to self-cater. We has great stay and would have no hesitation in recommending to family or friends.
