Further details
Puisserguier has a history that dates back to medieval times, and belongs to a type of village called “the circulades”. This style of architecture comes from the Romanesque period where the streets are built in concentric circles around the base of the chateau, which itself dates from the 11th Century, and brings back memories of Simon de Montfort and the Cathar Wars of 1209. Parts of the original walls of Puisserguier can be found around the village, and in the Rue Parmentier and the Impasse Lapeyronie you will find the remains of old water wells. These originally led to underground passages that connected with the castle at Maureilhan and the 17th century priory of St Christophe, which lies in the pinewoods just outside the village in the direction of Cazedarnes. Golf, fishing, horse riding, tennis, canoeing, walking, wine tasting and a selection of excellent restaurants are all to be found nearby.

Guest comments
‘Have so enjoyed the scenery, the walks, the house, and living the French way of life for a week’.
‘House is very well equipped, and very well located to explore both hills and coast’.
‘A very pretty area, the vineyards and the plein trees will stay in my memory, also the many places we visited including the old city of Carcassonne’.
We would just like to say how much we enjoyed our stay at Le Four a Chaux. The accommodation was excellent and the children loved the pool (as did we)! We couldn't believe how relaxing and picturesque the area was we had a fantastic holiday and absolutely loved the house. Thank you for providing such welcoming and comfortable accommodation. We would certainly consider coming back again.
