Needs and animals

1 Cat

Winston is an indoor/outdoor cat with a cat flap who wants generous doses of loving and food! He has a special food due to a tendency to urinary tract infections and only likes to drink running water (from the tap) so we've been trained to turn it on when he hops onto the sink.

House

Recently renovated house in charming village, amidst vineyards. Three bedrooms, two bath, a living room and a fireplace room. Roof terrace with great view. 20 meters from front door is a small grocery store which sells are the basics including fresh baguettes, croissants and very great, affordable wine.

If you have a car, the nearest big town is Lezignan-Corbiere which has four large supermarkets and all the things you might need (medical, etc...). There is a weekly open market on Wednesdays. If you don't have a car it is restrictive.
In winter, I would ask you to pay for the cost of electricity. This runs about 240 Euros per month to heat a room or two at a time.

Tourism and Leisure

There are lots of places to do wine tasting very nearby and the coast is only a 40 minute drive away. Carcassonne's world famous "cite" is half an hour away and it is only an hour to the Spanish border. The area is famous for the Cathars ruins perched on the hills and the Font Froid abbey which is only 5 kms away. Its easy to go almost anywhere from here as there is a autoroute entrance within 10 kms.

Camille's home in Boutenac set amidst beautiful vineyards and hills in the south of France was real pleasure in which to spend 5 weeks. With stunning views from the terrace and bedrooms, this updated old village home has all the modern conveniences, and yet is a work-in-progress. Being a DIYer, I enjoyed doing a little projects around the house. Camille was very thorough in her orientation. She picked us up at the Lezignan train station and showed us around town. Since she allowed us to use her car for a nominal daily fee, it became quite convenient for us to not only do our shopping, but also to explore and enjoy the surrounding region. We enjoyed hiking on the trails around the village. Camille's friends and social circle in the village warmly welcomed us and kept us socially engaged throughout our stay. Last, but not the least, we really had the best time with Winston! He is beautiful, lovable and easy going cat. He followed us on walks and cuddled next to us, but also enjoyed his alone time. The chip-activated cat-flap made it easy for him to go in and out as needed. It was very easy to care for him and we really miss him now! We would definitely recommend pet sitting for Camille and given the opportunity, would love to do it again.
