Why the owner chose a home in this location:

We chose Maraussan after spending 3 months visiting various villages in the area and looking at their location in respect of distance to the beach, the mountains, the wonderful Languedoc National Park area and of course the easy access to all major road, rail and airport networks.

Also this area has its own micro climate which protects us from the high winds found in many other villages only 20 minutes away from here. There is so much to see and do in this region from wonderful scenic walks amid the profuse vineyards to canoeing, cycling and wine tasting.
