There is a good view over the river "La Clamoux" and the village of Villeneuve Minervois. Access is possible on foot for shopping in the centre of town, or to go to the café or restaurant in the historical centre. Villeneuve Minervois and the Gorges de la Clamoux offer nature-lovers a complete change of scenery, away from the tourist trail. Between the Montagne Noire and the vineyards of the Minervois, 20 minutes from the mediaeval city of Carcassonne and 50 minutes from the Mediterranean sea, Villeneuve is a welcoming village nesting at the foot of the mountain country on the road to the Giant Abyss of Cabrespine (Le Gouffre Geant). Its promenade shaded by plane trees is an oasis of coolness during the summer. Some of its festivities and activities include its Truffle Markets, its Christmas Market and Villeneuve Tuesdays. To quote the official tourist site for the village: 'Villeneuve, with its emerald vineyards, and its silvery olive trees cradled by the wind... Villeneuve, land of history, whose visitors lose themselves amongst its shaded paths, its dozing capitelles, its eternal chapels... Nestling in the heart of the green foothills of the Montagne Noire like a pearl in its shell, Villeneuve will enchant you as soon as you arrive from any direction: From the road from Carcassonne, you will look down on the village and see two majestic towers rising up from the flame-coloured roofs of the houses. From the roads from Sallèles and Caunes Minervois, it is the village vineyards which welcome you. And coming from Cabrespine, le Vallée de Clamoux leads you into the plane-lined avenues which are so typical and unique to the village.' There is a small supermarket in the village, plus a bakery, a butcher's shop, a restaurant, a café bar, a Post Office, and a super historical centre. Carcassonne is a good shopping centre for everything required!

Location in France

The Aude lies in the Languedoc-Roussillon on the edge of the Pyrenees, and as usual within France, such a diverse country, there are a wide variety of landscapes. Vast areas are devoted to wheat fields and vineyards, and mountains and vast forests are scattered throughout the area. The department also has around 50km of Mediterranean coastline, which is always appealing!
The city of Carcassonne is the Aude's most proud possession. The medieval town, which was the inspiration for 'The Sleeping Beauty', boasts an incredible 52 towers and 2 enormous ramparts. A stroll around the city's old town reveals many memorable views, and even form the autoroute, when lit up at night, it looks sensational. The historical city of Narbonne, not far from Carcassone, is another favourite.
The Aude has a large number of castles, reminiscent of its Cathar history. The most impressive citadel is Peyrepertuse, which has 2.5km of ramparts.
The Midi Canal, which flows through the department, is an incredible feat of construction. It took 12,000 men working for 14 years to complete it in the 17th century, and it runs from Toulouse to Thau, passing through Carcassonne. The canal is an incredible 240km in length nowadays, it is used most by the tourist industry and is a great way to explore the region whilst admiring the landscape at a leisurely pace.
The area is proud of its customs and local cuisine, including the world famous cassoulet. Castelnaudary is considered the world capital of this particular dish. There are very strict rules over what constitutes a cassoulet - most importantly, all the ingredients must come from the Aude!
Carcassonne has its own international airport with regular flights to the UK and other European destinations, as well as a TGV train station, so travelling to the Aude is easy.
The french property prices in the Aude tend to be slightly cheaper than the average within the Languedoc Roussillon, but the major cities naturally attract higher property values, particularly Carcassonne.
