Enquire nowThe Languedoc-Roussillon / Herault region
The property is located in the heart of the small village of St Genies de Fontedit in the Languedoc-Rousillon wine-growing region of the Herault in southern France.
It is fifteen minutes drive from the outskirts of the old, busier town of Beziers, with regional airports conveniently only an hour away at either Montpellier, Perpignan or Carcassonne, or the larger Toulouse which is just two hours away.
The Beziers / Saint Genies de Fontedit area
The village of St Genies is quietly located just 3 km off the main D909 route to Beziers and the coast, and is very much in keeping with similar villages in the region. The village nestles in the foothills with surrounding vineyards, is close to the mountains inland, and yet the Mediterranean coastal resorts at Agde, Valras, and Narbonne are only 30 minutes away.
The climate is always warm, becoming very hot in the summer months (typically 35C), and remaining a pleasant 10-15C in winter. It usually rains only in late Autumn and in early Spring, with sunshine throughout the year tempered by cooling sea breezes.

Great value for money, outstanding attention to detail. You need a car, there is not enough to tie you to the village even for a day. But the world outside your doorstep is waiting to be discovered. People need to give their recommendations for good places to eat, as we took pot luck with all of our findings & only found 2 worth going back to. Valras & Cap D' Agde beaches were great. Take a trip also to Pezenas, Nimes, Montpellier, Perpignan and stop anywhere you can on the doorstep by the river Orb, we found quiet tucked away areas & saw great wildlife besides the river. There isn't anything you could possibly think of that the house didn't have, it's all there (apart from air con or Internet, but sometimes you just need to shut off, & it's not hard finding free wifi). |
