Independent Comment
Domaine de Clement is a world all of its own, a haven from the stresses and crowds of daily working life. Nestling in the wooded foothills of the majestic Montagne Noire, this private estate is a place to unwind and relax deep in the heart of rural southern France. We would especially highlight the unusually large swimming pool with acres of space for lounging, and lots of areas for recreation and games activities in the spacious grounds. The accommodation in Le Moulin Haut, Le Moulin Bas and l’Ecurie is particularly spacious, light and airy, with great character, and finished to a reassuringly high standard with all the equipment and facilities suitable for a relaxing holiday.
