Holiday Rentals in Aude - A Guide to Aude
Holiday rentals in Aude are mainly known for the wonderful medieval city of Carcassonne. Being one of the departments that make up Languedoc holiday rentals, the department of Aude can be found south west of the Languedoc’s capital city of Montpellier and not too far from Toulouse.
Aude holiday rentals are a good choice if you live in Ireland and want to holiday in this part of France due to direct flights from Dublin to Carcassonne. Other airports such as Toulouse and Perpignan are also useful if you want to rent a holiday rental in Aude.
Holiday rentals in Aude can be windier than other parts of the Languedoc so be aware of this when booking your Aude holiday rentals.
Types of Holiday Rentals in Aude
Although the walled medieval city of Carcassonne is undoubtedly the focal point of this department, and something that must be seen, the most popular types of holiday rentals in Aude are to be found in one of the many villages dotted throughout the department.
Aude holiday rentals are typically 2-3 bed village houses sleeping 4-6 people, sometimes with roof terraces, if you’re really lucky you’ll find one with a garden, and if you’re really really lucky one with a garden and a swimming pool.
If you like the idea of something with a swimming pool then renting a villa in Aude is going to be your best bet. Most of the character village houses to rent in Aude were never built with gardens all those hundreds of years ago so most of the houses with any form of outside space tend to be roof terraces that have been created. You can get some great village houses to rent in Aude with roof terraces but if you want a pool then a villa is the way to go.
Depending on the size of your party a villa to rent in Aude can sleep between 6 and 20 people. Most of these Aude villas to rent will be very smart affairs with nice big gardens, perhaps you might even get something with a view.
As long as you’re paying the going rate then most of these private villas to rent in Aude will also come with little extras such as bicycles, DVD players, CD players, although more and more places now come with an iPod dock instead, and even games consoles such as Playstations or Nintendo Wii.
If your wallet can stretch to it then you can find holiday rentals in Aude with private tennis courts.
Aude Useful Information
Given the geographical position of the department of Aude, at the Mediterranean end of France, it comes as no surprise that the key months for renting a holiday rental in Aude are July and August.
This is when you’ll pay the most money for your house or apartment. But don’t be put off by this. Choosing to travel either side of these months will mean cheaper rents and often just as nice weather. I’ve often found that the end of June is when you can find the best weather for your Aude holiday rentals.
