Le Grand Soleil 2 bed apartment to rent Carcassonne South France - Our Opinion
This apartment in the heart of Carcassonne is a great option for a long term rental in the South of France.

Carcassonne is one of the most-visited towns in the South of France and is home to 2 UNESCO World Heritage sites (Carcassonne Castle and the Canal du Midi) and in the summer it is home to a very popular music and arts festival.
