La Tuilerie is a serene, peaceful and quiet estate which is situated on a one hectare land franked by the river Orbieu, a 84.2 km long river in Aude commencing from mountain of Corbières near Fourtou flowing down northeast towards the coastal area of Narbonne. The meandering river has pristine clear water, surrounded by a bamboo forest on property, and is a respite for the hot summer sun. 

The property consists of a 150 year old majestic French stone house on two floors, with three beautifully appointed bedrooms and a luxurious spacious bathroom. 

The indoor dinning room is comfortably designed for eight, and can be extended for ten.  There are several optional outdoor dinning venues to be enjoyed on gorgeous weather from Spring to Autumn.  

A large spacious terrace is available for outdoor streches, yoga and qigong. The property is dotted with many quiet corners for hamac or meditation, so even in a group, privacy and space is always available. 

It also offers a self contained luxuriously furnished one bedroom ensuite Chalet for two, with private kitchenette where light meals can be prepared and dined, an oversized sofa with Burmese teak chairs to enjoy unobstructed full view of the open field and mountain which gives the sense of spaciouness for retreat. 

For the more modest and reserved, a rustic Chalet facing the cedar forest with an external bathroom is an ideal choice for the hermit. 

Unlike any hospitality establishement which trives on pleasing its guests to create more revenue hence higher profits, we are invested in you developing your resilence and finding your inner freedom as we ourselves are quietly on the path as evident by our choice.

At the end of a weekend retreat, you may wish to extend your stay at La Tuilerie and discover the magnificent surroundings of the house.

Domaine de la Tuilerie is located in the village of Lanet, at the crossroads of several destinations rich in historical and cultural heritage. In the heart of the Hautes Corbières and bordered by the Orbieu Valley, the property offers direct access to a number of Natura 2000 sites, areas that are particularly noteworthy for their ecological interest and their flora and fauna.

Depending on which direction you choose, you can reach a number of villages in the Corbières, including Lagrasse, famous for its classical music festival Les Pages de Lagrasse, and Laroque de Fa and its summer market.

Continue on to Narbonne, where the cathedral overlooks the town. Just a few more kilometres and you're on your way to the Mediterranean beaches, why not Gruissan and its port, with its many restaurants and summer shops, as well as some quiet, sunny sandy beaches away from the hustle and bustle.

Heading in the opposite direction will take you to the other colours of the Haute-Vallée de l'Aude. Picturesque villages like Rennes-le-Château full of mysteries ; the hot springs at Rennes-les-Bains and the famous Sunday morning market at Espéraza. For a more natural experience, there's the sentier vert and its labyrinth at Nébias, a forest with a fairytale feel; the gentle ascent of the Bugarach peak; and the lakes at Puivert and Montbel.

Heading towards the Carcassonne region, you'll pass through Limoux, home of its famous Blanquette, which is no match for the Champagne region! Then on to Carcassonne and its citadel, a majestic city that watches over the town. Not forgetting, of course, the monuments of Cathar country: the Cathar castles of Quéribus, Puilaurens, Montségur... and other abbeys and museums, twenty-two sites to visit to feed the curiosity of all generations.

Finally, let's not forget to mention that our region is a land of winegrowers: everywhere you look you'll find welcoming wine cellars offering a variety of grands crus, to be discovered with pleasure and moderation.
