I'm Julie, born in the Manchester area, UK. I will be here to welcome you when you roll up the lane. I have lived here for over 43 years and live on the same property. Furthermore, I will not be far if you have a problem, want information about the area and what is going on, or just a chat. You may occasionally meet me in the pool when it gets a bit hot. Jean Luc my husband is French. He is a retired landscape gardener, which explains the beautifully kept gardens and country sides. The Roubichoux hamlet of nearly 95 Hectares(234 Acers) of fields and woodlands belongs to the family.
Jean Luc my husband and I just have 2 grown up boys now both living away.
For nature lovers, here you will discover a lot of wild life around the villa and in the nearby surroundings. You will get to see rabbits, fox, wild boar, deer and a wide variety of birds and birds of prey if you are an early bird, or just lucky.

We built our home and the gîte 'Tour Basse' that sleeps up to 9 people our selves here in the Kercorb region, because of the beauty and the calm. Initially it was part of our home, later we decided to let it out to holidaymakers who wish to discover this beautiful region. That means that you feel that you are staying in a home rather than a bland holiday rental. Jean Luc and myself love to take walks in the domain in some of the many well-kept windy paths in the woods of the family's domain.
Our self-catering villa is in a truly romantic setting on southern facing slopes of the foothills of the Pyrenees. It has glorious views. You have free use of the heated pool, with power jet swimming. The hamlet has its own restored ancient chapel, a semi-natural amphitheater, a castle ruin, a vineyard and woodlands where children can play in security and adults can roam in peace and quiet, a nature lovers paradise. There is no through traffic. Yet despite the rural calm one is only 10 minutes drive from shops and 20 mins from the historic bastide of Mirepoix, 50 mins from Carcassonne

At the Tour Basse you will find the ideal summer holiday rental for a large extended family or two families holidaying together looking for high quality self-catering facilities in a beautiful environment.
There is lots of space to play outside, so our holiday home is ideal for families with children as there is no danger of traffic or strangers passing by. We are happy to except well-behaved pets in our holiday home as long as the owners except the house rules and understand their responsibility.
