Overview

Located only 90 minutes from the Mediterranean Sea, the Spanish border and the mountains, what can be better than to discover the surroundings of the South of France.

Domaine des Etoiles was in former times a wine producing Domaine, now lovingly restored by its current owner Steve Hedges to provide an eco friendly family home large enough to accommodate family and friends.

Hot water is produced by solar power and the winter rain water is collected and stored in the 200,000 litre wine cuves and used to nourish the garden plants during the long hot summer months.

Word got round about Steve's hospitality, friends of friends were asking to visit and very soon Steve had a permanent house party.

Before long, guests wanted to contribute to the running costs and the permanent house party became a business.

The one-time Masters House has become the family home and also provides B&B accommodation, and outbuildings have been transformed into two guest cottages for self-catering rentals.

Steve Hedges, in addition to being your host at Domaine des Etoiles writes a local newsletter the Aude Flyer and is a presenter of local interest programmes on Contact FM Radio and has a wealth of local knowledge which he is happy to share with guests - interesting places to visit, great shops, market days, the in restaurants, vide greniers (local equivalent of the car boot sale) property for sale, etc.......

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
