Julian & Stephanie Browne come from Coventry in the West Midlands, England. In 2002 they bought a house in the Black Mountains of France, for their vacations and as a renovation project. Very soon the draw of the French lifestyle became too strong to resist, and in 2005 they sold their house in England and the house in the mountains, and bought "La Terrasse".
Together they have undertaken nearly all the renovation work. Firstly the restoration of "The Farmhouse", then the construction of the pool and pool house. In 2008 they completed the conversion of "The Stables" and 2011 sees the opening of their new gîte "The Lauragais".

BTW found the most immaculate & imaginative holiday home development North of Carcasonne yesterday. Well worth a look.

You have chosen the loveliest part of France, you have chosen the loveliest home, and your guests have chosen the loveliest hosts. The pool and pool house are real French Riviera class!

This is surely one of the most beautiful houses we ever rented in France. We were touched by your hospitality.

It has been wonderful to return to La Terrasse. We have been able to truly relax in idyllic surroundings. Your hard work has provided holidaymakers with a little piece of heaven
The Garsides, Bedforshire, UK.
We all had a brilliant time; there’s enough history, nature and culture, mad sports and action, good wine, food and shopping in the area to keep everyone happy. The properties are of the highest standard and a total delight. The grounds are not only well kept and beautiful, but interesting too. We highly recommend this property to anyone and have never in all our years of French, Spanish and Italian gîtes found a better to place to be!

We’ve had the best few days we could have possibly hoped for. It’s been gorgeous! The house is gorgeous! The pool is gorgeous!

We have been holidaying in France for several years and would have to say that “La Terrasse” is the best house we have stayed in so far. The grounds are superb and great for watching the wildlife and birds.

Our children loved seeing all the wildlife: hares, owls, snakes, frogs, lizards, crickets etc. The pool area is fabulous and we made full use of the fridge on hot days.

Houses were both clean and well equipped. You cater for all ages; we ranged from 6 to 85 and we all enjoyed it. Pool area fantastic. Gardens fab, enjoyed looking at wildlife. Found sitting by the pond very relaxing.
