The house
Are you ready for a wonderful, peaceful holiday? Then you have come to the right place at Les Armengauds! As there are no children, our entire domaine radiates tranquillity.
On our beautiful holiday paradise, we have set up 4 comfortable gîtes in the old Provençal-style farmhouse. They are fully equipped with a fully equipped kitchen, private bathroom and terraces with garden furniture. The beautiful authentic character has been preserved.
By the swimming pool you can quietly read or enjoy the beautiful view. Or have a drink on our cosy terrace. In high season, you can regularly join the delicious table d'hôtes and cosy barbecue in the evening. Or come to the cosy common room with TV (satellite), reading corner, games and information about the area.

Restaurants, food & wine
In high season, we organise a cosy Saturday evening barbecue with a choice of meat, fish or vegetarian. Of course with a buffet full of nice salads and sauces.
During the week, you can then sign up for a three-course menu, with the same choice of fish, meat or entirely vegetarian. On Sunday evening, we usually serve meal salads.
We make everything ourselves and work with fresh and local products as much as possible. We only ask you what you prefer not to eat. You can safely leave the rest to us.
We have agreed with our local artisanal baker that he will bring us delicious fresh bread every day in high season. You can place your order the night before, before 6pm.
Languedoc has the largest wine production in France. Wine lovers have a great choice, such as Corbières, Malpère, Minervois and the Blanquette de Limoux.
For other culinary needs, visit renowned restaurants in La Pomarède and Saint Félix (both have a Michelin star) or one of the many small restaurants nearby.
Activities
At our domaine for adults, you can enjoy a sun lounger by our quiet pool, have a drink on our cosy terrace and, in high season, join us a few times a week for the delicious table d'hôte or BBQ. For even more relaxation, join a yoga class taught by Marion. In the immediate vicinity, you can hike, cycle, swim in fine lakes or play golf. Time seems to have stood still a little in this part of France. The villages and markets are authentic and cosy. A visit to the famous city of Carcassonne and beautiful Toulouse should not be missing on your to-do list. As is a beautiful trip through the Montage noire or the Pyrenees. Of course, doing nothing is also allowed, because our domaine and its surroundings are perfect for that!

Astrid Martin from 's-Hertogenbosch,
We zijn al meerdere malen teruggekeerd op Les Armengauds. Voor de rust, de sfeer, het lekkere eten en de vriendelijkheid.
Ook het kindvrije aspect spreekt ons zeer aan.
Les Armengauds is een mooie uitvalsbasis om de mooie omgeving, rustieke dorpjes en prachtige steden te ontdekken.
Gite Hortensia heeft een ruime bovenverdieping met mooie badkamer en heerlijk slaapvertrek. De woonruimte en keuken zijn ruim en voorzien van alle gemakken. Het schaduwterras en zonnige tuin maken het compleet.
Wij weten zeker dat we nog een keer terug gaan!Jorinde Boekholt from De Meern,
"Wat hebben we een heerlijke vakantie bij jullie gehad. We denken er nog regelmatig aan terug! "La maison" was een heerlijk appartement waar we 2,5 week hebben vertoefd. Het appartement was helemaal compleet. Alle keukengerei om lekker te koken was aanwezig. En het extra "tuintje" wat erbij hoorde was voor ons een verrassing. We hebben heerlijk met onze stoeltjes onder de bomen gezeten en genoten van het prachtige uitzicht naar de heuvels. Bijzondere zonsondergangen. Alles was helemaal tot in de puntjes geregeld. Het zwembad was fijn, het appartement modern ingericht en schoon en de omgeving was erg mooi. Prachtige wandelingen gemaakt, leuke steden en dorpen bezocht en ons echt gevoeld als "god(in) in Frankrijk". Een aanrader voor iedereen die op zoek is naar rust, comfort en een mooie omgeving. Dank jullie wel voor de goede zorgen".
