A perfect base for a walking holiday

Situated in the Haute Valle de l`Aude, Arques is surrounded by stunning scenery just waiting to be explored on foot.

With fourteen well signposted walks in the local area, you can have a different experience every day. Click on the image on the left for an example. From leisurely riverside walks to steep mountain climbs, it is up to you how much you stretch yourself. Walking in spring and autumn can be particularly pleasurable without the intense heat of the summer.

Local walking routes are provided in the gite

Cycling holidays

Whether you just want to cycle along, taking in the scenery, or whether you are a more serious cyclist, Les Reves in Arques is a great base for your cycling holiday.

Cycle routes for every ability are available in the area. Please click on the image on the left to see a variety of routes to be found locally. Cycling in the spring and autumn can be particularly pleasurable, without the intense heat of summer.

We even have some bicycles availabe at the gite!

Horse riding holidays

Have you ever wished that you could ride in France? Whether you are an experienced rider or more of a novice, we can create a package that is just right for you. Working with our next door neighbours, Jacques and Tania Raynaud we can offer riding holidays on a self catering basis.
Based on a 5 day/4 night riding holiday, in April, May, June, September or October, an example itinerary could look like this:

Day 1 Guests would arrive at Carcassonne airport and make the 45 minute journey here to meet Jacques and the horses. Settle in to the gite

Day 2 Half day hack (morning), then visit to Rennes le Chateau (featured in the Da Vinci Code) and Rennes les Bains, a pretty thermal spa town recently famous because of Kate Mosse's Labyrinth.

Day 3 Full day hack with picnic lunch

Day 4 Two hour hack (morning), then visit to La Cite at Carcassonne, famous medieval fortified town

Day 5 Departure
The amount of riding time could be adjusted to suit guests' needs.

Seeing this region from horseback is a wonderful experience. The stunning landscape dotted with fabulous chateaux is a sight to behold and your guide, Jacques, who speaks good English, is a font of knowledge on local history and flora.

The horses are beautifully cared for and have a very even temperament. Hats are provided. Riding during the spring and autumn gives both rider and horse a break from the intense heat of summer.

With rates starting from as little as £240 pp based on the above itinerary, four people sharing, your French horse riding dream can become a reality!
