former barn has been converted into a comfortable guesthouse - here
we can now offer you 5 beautiful and spacious rooms and a cosy
breakfast room. There is also a suite, which is particularly
suitable for families. It consists of a double room and a twin bed
room - the rooms are adjacent and joined via a connecting door. One
of the double rooms on the ground floor complies with the French
norms for disabled access (please inquire when making your
reservation). The spacious rooms are fitted in a contemporary,
tasteful and friendly style and each has a small sitting/work area.
TV (satellite) and telephone are available in all rooms. They are
also fitted with heating and air-conditioning. All rooms have
comfortable en-suite bathrooms fitted with a shower, hand-wash basin
and toilet. The continental breakfast is served in a nice breakfast
room between 8.30 am - 10.00 am (buffet).

Nature, Sports and History and Culture! The Roussillon is an
immensely historic region. The remnants of the past can be
encountered everywhere, particularly here in the south. Whether
young or old, adventure thirsty or laid back - can enjoy this varied
region according to their own heart's desire. Hardly any other place
offers such a wide-ranging choice of close-up nature encounters,
thrilling adventure sports or conventional family fun and history
and culture. Where else in Europe is it possible to go skiing at
3000m in the morning and relax at the beach to soak up the sun that
same afternoon? Here, where the mountains converge with the sea,
practically the entire spectrum of outdoor activities can be found
within a small area: For walking, mountain biking and horseback
riding the landscape presents a paradise. The breathtaking beauty of
this largely unspoiled mountain world has so far been preserved from
the onslaught of mass tourism and thus still offers nature
experiences that have become rare in Central Europe


Airport-connections and driving-directions Despite of the dreamy
vineyard village atmosphere of Caudiès de Fenouillèdes, Cave
Ancienne is integrated remarkably well into the network of national
and international traffic connections. Situated about 40 km west of
Perpignan (London connection) and 70 km south of Carcassonne
(London, Brussels). Perpignan (½ hour) as well as Carcassonne (1
hour) have their own airports that also offer international
connections. Ryanair flies to both airports from Belgium as well as
from London. Other airports of the region are located at Toulouse
(approx. 150 km), Montpellier (approx. 160 km), Girona (approx. 1½
hours by car). Most of our guest make use of the air connection to
Girona in northern Spain. By car: Via Perpignan Perpignan is
connected to the southern motorway network of France. The A9 leads
all the way to Perpignan and continues on parallel to the coast down
to Barcelona. From Perpignan simply follow the signs for the country-
road D 117 (direction Foix indicated) till Caudies.


Skiing Information The lower valleys of this region usually remain
snow free during the winter months, but the ski resorts are never
far away. Despite the glorious location (so close to the
Mediterranean) and the awe-inspiring scenery, the Pyrenees have
remained a secret among skiers and winter sports fans. Though one
could hardly wish for a more beautiful winter sports environment: a
fabulous mountain world with fantastic panoramas stretching all the
way to the sea, slopes from blue to black and extensive cross-
country trails - whether skiing, snowboarding, skating or sledging,
the ski resorts of the eastern Pyrenees have something for everyone.
Yet, despite its 'hard to beat' location, the area has so far not
been overrun by tourism. The gorgeous sunny winter weather here in
the south makes winter sports a special pleasure. One can play in
the snow to one's heart's content all morning, indulging in all
the 'cool' fun to one's heart's content and in the afternoon descend
to the coast for Après-ski !!!
