We loved staying here in such a tranquil location and were sorry to leave. Claude and Renee are lovely, warm, friendly hosts and made good recommendations for trips. We liked our very spacious room and very comfortable bed. We really enjoyed our meals with plenty of wine and good conversation and trying to speak French, with our hosts (we also... More

We have been twice now and will soon be visiting for a third time. Such a lovely place and lovely hosts. We can't visit France without coming back. I cannot think of a nicer place to stay. Exceptional.

We have overnighted at Villelongue Cote Jardins two years in a row, so much did we enjoy our first visit in June last year. We were equally delighted this year.

What a find! We came across the Villelongue Cote Jardin B&B in the Alistair Sawday France guide and it was simply fantastic. Sisters Claude and Renee are delightfully friendly hosts and this has been their family home for, well, pretty much forever. It's a lovely old home set among the trees in a tiny village surrounding the next-door abbey. And... More

The warmth of the welcome, the superb quality of the accommodation and the excellent food at both breakfast and dinner are unsurpassed in our experience of French B&Bs. Claude and Renee are engaging hostesses and within their superb home they provide unmatched quality and value for money.
