Situated in the heart of the Pays Cathare and only minutes from the majestic cité of Carcassonne, Domaine de Campras is a peaceful, eco-conscious retreat ideal for couples, families and nature lovers. Perched to offer unobstructed views of the Pyrenees and the Aude plains, the estate has been welcoming guests for over a decade with independent, well-spaced accommodations that preserve privacy and serenity. The domaine offers an intimate selection of unique lodgings including charming guest rooms, a certified loft, a pretty roulotte and the handcrafted Cabane de Trappeur. Each accommodation is furnished with regional materials and artisan touches, blending comfort with authentic local character. The site is designed for relaxation: a heated jacuzzi is available for private sessions, and guests can enjoy a wide array of on-site activities — a shaded play area with slides, table tennis, babyfoot and a giant chess set, as well as picnic corners and a small duck pond. Domaine de Campras is committed to ecological care: no chemical products are used for outdoor maintenance, and the property is recognized as an LPO bird refuge (French Bird Protection League), making it a rewarding destination for birdwatchers and biodiversity enthusiasts. Practical comforts include heated accommodation, towels and beds made on arrival, free secure parking and the option of homemade breakfasts. Located within striking distance of regional highlights, the domaine is a perfect base for exploration: Saissac’s ancient Cathar castle is a five-minute drive, multiple Cathar castles and hiking circuits are within 10–20 minutes, a historical paper mill and local vineyards are nearby, and the medieval city of Carcassonne is about 20 minutes away. Outdoor activities such as mountain biking, horse riding and water sports are easily accessible. Host Fred favors simplicity and warm hospitality. He is available to advise on local visits, dining and activities and will help make your stay comfortable. Whether you seek a romantic escape, a family-friendly holiday or a nature-focused break, Domaine de Campras offers authentic charm, quietude and a memorable connection to the landscapes and heritage of the Aude.
