Home description
Beach House is, quite literaly, next to the beach, your garden gate opens out onto the sand dunes. The house is comfortable for four people, equipped to a high standard and within walking distance of restaurants, cafés and summer nightlife. Enclosed parking for one car.
It's a good idea to have a theme for a holiday - or at least a few days of it in order to be able to take home memories of an enjoyable holiday and here you will have no problem whatsoever, either from guide books, from the suggestions at the house or from the local tourist office.

The Languedoc-Roussillon / Herault region
The Langedoc-Roussillon area is one of the best served areas of France both by way of access and facilities. Travelling inland you will find yourself on the coastal plain and then in the foothills of the interior. There are dozens of villages to explore, their 'centre historiques" still intact and reflecting an age when time was less critical and people still had time to relax and enjoy life. The beaches are first class, many of them being Blue Flag beaches. Fishing villages are plentifull, as are restaurants. Bouzigues is famous for oysters and mussels. if you saw the Rick Stein TV programme, you may remember that he spent quite some time in the Basin de Thau, the large inland sea-water lake just behind Marseillan Plage, and was most impressed by the area, and particularly by the shell-fish.
Marseillan / Marseillan Plage area
In the surrounding areas you will not be at a loss for something to do! You can choose the sophistication of Montpellier with all that has to offer, including a very good zoo with a jungle area( parrots etc.), the architecture of Pezenas (home of Moliére and his theatre group for some years) where Lord Clive rested on his way home from India, or the more adventurous pursuits of tree climbing and nature trails in the regional park of Bessilles near Montagnac, or any number of sports such as horseriding on the beach, swimming, iceskating, bowling, in fact almost anything except for the snow type!

Further details outdoors: As the name suggests, Beach House is right on the beach in a private, gated,residential area. Marseillan Plage is the Mediterranean beach of Marseillan, a market town about five kilometres along the shores of the Basin de Thau. Cap d’Agde is the ‘new town’ of Agde having been in existence only 30 years or so, it has all the amenities one would expect in the South of France, yacht harbours, promenades, bars, restaurants etc. Although there are shops in Marseillan Plage, for weekly shops the nearest supermarkets are 10 minutes or so by car – either Marseillan, Séte or Agde. If you are arriving by train, Agde is the nearest railway station, autorail is to Narbonne or Valence. Our two nearest airports are Carcassonne and Montpellier. By road the A7 or the newer auto route, the A9 are both within easy reach.
