About this property
Beautiful countryside home with pool + views
Beautiful Holiday Home in Southern France. Located near the village of Fanjeaux within the rolling countryside of the Aude (Languedoc) region, with views of the Pyrenees.
L'Obit Ouest is a 4 bedroom converted barn, with many original features. The house is decorated with a neutral, sophisticated feel.
The spacious open plan kitchen, living room and dining area is the heart of the house, providing a sociable space for guests. The room is flooded with light from triple aspect windows, and large glass doors on to the South facing terrace with incredible views of the countryside, Pyrenees mountains, and amazing sunsets. On the terrace you will find a large dining table and chairs for 10-12 people, an outdoor sofa, and a BBQ for all day entertainment and lounging in the sunshine.
There are four ensuite bedrooms (3 kingsize + 1 double), all with air conditioning.
Guests will have private access to the walled swimming pool (10x4m)*, with sunloungers and pool towels available for guests to enjoy.
The house is surrounded by a large garden (4000m/1hectare), with a landscaped lawn and shrubbery to the South aspect in front of the terrace, and a large grassed area perfect for children to play to the North of the barn.
Guest access You will have sole access to the whole house, gardens and pool during your stay. Guests will not have access to the storage/garage areas underneath the property.
Other things to note The garden is open to the countryside
We have one neighbouring property, however the houses have an entirely separate feel as the neighbours house, gardens and pool face a different way from L’Obit Ouest. Our house, garden and pool remains secluded and are not directly overlooked by the neighbours.
*Pool is open from April to September only
For winter guests, the house is heated by electric heaters in all rooms, as well as the air conditioning units providing heated air in the bedrooms. The master bedroom ensuite bathroom is fitted with underfloor heating.

The deck overlooking the countryside and the view of the sunsets makes this a spectacular place to stay. We enjoyed several evening meals there in October. On top of that, the living/dining room is spacious and the bedrooms had very comfy beds. Our hostess was diligent in solving a stove top problem and it was resolved easily within 12 hours. We enjoyed the pool late in the afternoon. It was a very peaceful place to stay.
Off season stay for our group of four adults being a bedroom and bathroom each. Plenty of space within the home and outside although the weather reduced our outdoors use.
Beds comfortable, three lounges made the sitting area very comfy with a great kitchen and dine area.
Walking trails from the home, great sunsets, bar b q, we did not use the pool because of the weather but it looked inviting. Certainly o e of our favourite stays in France in our 6 months so far.
This is on farm land well off the main road so a true get away experience.
We enjoyed 2 great weeks at this wonderful property, which had everything we were looking for to have a relaxing holiday. The recently refurbished large house is superbly equipped and designed and is clearly well looked after. There is plenty of seating indoors and outdoors and it is very comfortable whatever the weather. The house is surrounded by beautiful, peaceful countryside and enjoys spectacular views to the Pyrenees, especially from the west facing deck, where we enjoyed many sunset barbeques. Phoebe is a great host and communicator. We strongly recommend a stay here.
Grande maison avec un grand espace de vie et une vue exceptionnelle sur la campagne et les Pyrénées. 4 chambres avec 4 salles de bain. Maison très bien équipée.
Les photos ne sont pas mensongères, elles reflètent la réalité, le descriptif aussi
Location très spacieuse, très belle rénovation. Idéale pour plusieurs couples. Phoebe est très à l'écoute pour que tout se passe au mieux. Merci encore !
