Villeneuve les Corbieres is a small village in the Aude département in Southern France. It has about 200 inhabitants.

It is on the D611 a very scenic road that twists and turns through many similar small villages. There is not much in Villeneuve les Corbieres but it does have a Distri-Cabanel which is part of a chain of small grocery shops which sells almost everything food and drink wise. There is also a small bar restaurant called Le Corbierou run by a very friendly family which serves good food and drink and has some outside seating, although the seating is right on the main road which does get surprisingly busy with passing traffic. There is also a post office and another shop selling part DIY part electrical goods. As with many of the villages on this road it is more about the journey than the arrival, but it is still worth a little wander around on a sunny day.
