A large supermarket and several restaurants are just a few minutes drive away and the village has all facilities including doctors, dentists, chemist, etc

Ideal for quiet relaxed holidays or for those looking to explore this beautiful area, the house makes an excellent base.

The Languedoc-Roussillon / Herault region

With 300 days of sunshine a year the region has one of the finest climates in Europe, and with the Mediterranean never far away one some of the finest beaches in France. The region specialises in the wine trade and is called Faugeres becoming famous for the quality of its wines and part of the worlds largest area of land dedicated to vines. These wines are becoming more and more popular and nearby also are St Chinian, and Minervois wines along the Canal du Midi.

The geography resembles that of Tuscany and offers a truly exciting historical area to explore. The hills of the Haut Languedoc are within 20 minutes and the Mediterranean beaches are just 25 minutes away at Valras Plage - see photo. Carcassone is an hours drive away and the Pont du Gard 1hr 20 minutes; Barcelona is 3 hours but for those with a need to shop or enjoy the many festivals year round then the towns of the Herault are nearby Beziers is 15 minutes, Pezenas 25 minutes and Montpellier 55 minutes drive.

The Beziers / Autignac area

The towns of Pezenas and Beziers attract many visitors each year both for there history and the local festivals, such as the Feria in August in Beziers or the Mirondella des Arts in Pezenas in July. Every village has its own fetes to complement these and close to the house is the best preserved chateau open to the public in the Herault the Chateau de Cassan which has many musical events as well as exhibitions, and of course its wines.

Carcassone is within an hours drive as is the Pont du Gard, the famous roman aqueduct. But there are many Roman and Greek places to visit both nations having conquered and settled here in the past. Bedarieux has a great market every Monday and Pezenas every Saturday with smaller local markets held in all the villages. One place well worth visiting locally for the view of the Mediterranean coastline is the Moulins or Windmills of Faugeres just a few minutes away by car. Or the International canoeing centre on the Orb at REALS which is also great for picnics by the river - you can even join in!
