Spacieux, lumineux et magnifiquement rénové. Un chez-soi pour les plus exigeants.

This was the perfect holiday for us. The property is thoughtfully planned with every comfort in mind and incredibly clean, a real home. The patio is the perfect place to relax and stay cool in the summer heat. Ingrid is a kind and thoughtful host who went above and beyond for us. And the village itself is the perfect mix, it’s slow and sleepy but there’s a lovely selection of restaurants. We loved it!

We spent eight wonderful days in Ingrid’s stunning house. The accommodation is centrally located yet very quiet in the old part of Caunes-Minervois. We were already very taken with the tasteful décor from the photos, but the impression on arrival exceeded our expectations. We have rented many holiday flats and holiday homes in various countries; La Sucru is one of the very few that deserves a 5-star-plus rating👌 Ingrid is a wonderfully warm and helpful person and looked after us brilliantly both before and during our stay. We’ll definitely be back – thank you so much for a lovely time 🍀😊 Gabriela & Hans, Switzerland

This is our third stay and it remains the very best Gite ever (in over 20 vacations in France). Everything positive people say is true! Ingrid and Christopher are charming hosts. If you have the opportunity to stay here you are in for a truly memorable experience. Thank you so much!

We had a fabulous stay at Ingrid's house. The house exceeded expectations. The rooms are actually much bigger than the photos show. Ingrid was a very attentive and helpful host. The house was perfectly located for what we needed which was to visit old friends in the area. Caunes-Minervois is a lovely village.

Behind the door of this property on an ancient, unassuming street in Caunes-Minervois, you find the most beautiful holiday home, with the emphasis on 'home' !From the terrace with its outdoor kitchen and comfortable furnishings, to the generously open-plan kitchen and living area to the elegant bedrooms to the fantastic bathroom and walk-in shower room, everything has been created for the comfort and delight of guests. It is a real gem, and we shall definitely be back.

Absolutely wonderful. I won’t repeat the other glowing reviews — just add my AMEN! to those comments and add: if you love cooking, make sure you take a look at everything offered that I’ve not seen in a rental before: knife sharpener, measuring cups, an immersion blender and good quality pots and pans, including a Le Creuset casserole. The local market includes a Quiche truck with the BEST quiche I’ve had ever. The area of France is marvellous and we so enjoyed our hikes in the countryside. We have rented over the last 25 years 20 or so places in France. This has been the best and we are talking about coming back next year. Thank you so much Ingrid and Christopher.

The house had everything we needed, was beautifully presented and very comfortable. The terrace is unique in Caunes for a house in the middle of the village. We spent many hours sitting on it enjoying the sounds of the village and the Abbey bells. It was lovely to step out into the medieval streets. Our hosts were excellent and very welcoming. I hope we will meet again.

Highly recommend La Sucre. The house is so comfortable with an amazingly well equipped kitchen and the terrace is just beautiful. This was my third stay and will not be my last. Thank you Ingrid and Christopher.

I can't recommend this lovely property strongly enough. It's not often that you book and stay at a property that exceeds expectations but la Sucre did just that. The photos do not do it justice. It was by far the nicest we have stayed in; incredibly functional and well-equipped but stunning and full of character. AND located in the most picturesque village ever! We used this home-away-from-home as a base for our week-long exploration throughout the Languedoc/Roussillon area and it was perfect. Ingrid and John were excellent hosts, providing us with a lovely welcoming basket of fruit and bottle of wine, showing (not just telling) us where to shop for supplies and answering any questions we had. One lasting memory of our stay is our morning walk to the village boulangerie through narrow, winding cobblestone streets to purchase fresh croissants for breakfast to be enjoyed on the outside ‘terrace’. We would not hesitate to return and stay again.

This lovely, atmospheric house is carved into the rocks of the town ramparts and the cool stone interiors provided a blissful respite from the heatwave outside. The covered terrace was idyllic in the mornings - you can drink your coffee while watching swallows swoop and whirl over the adjacent rooftops - and the house was extremely well equipped, immaculately furnished and brimming with lovely touches, including plentiful bookshelves. We absolutely loved our stay and found Caunes a great base for touring the area as well as a pretty town in its own right. It’s not possible to drive right to the door of the property but that’s part of the charm of the historical location and we had no problem finding free parking spaces nearby. We’d love to return one day.
