The Languedoc-Roussillon / Herault region


This region, the Languedoc, is France's best kept secret. With its sleepy villages of sun-warmed stones and red tiled roofs, surrounded by magnificent scenery and herb scented hills, it is ideal walking country. It is France’s largest, up-and-coming wine producing region and there are many opportunities to taste its excellent wines.
If you can tear yourself away from such over-abundance of nature's generosity, there are many local places of interest nearby. Or an hour's drive takes you to splendid Roman towns such as Avignon, Nîmes, Arles to the east, stunning Carcassonne and the Cathar castles to the west.
The sandy beach at Meze is only a 10 minute drive. Mediterranean beaches are 20 minutes’ drive and Lac Salagou for fishing and non-motorised water sports, 20 minutes. For a touch of true French sophistication, Montpellier, 40 kms, offers the arts, theatre, shopping, an international airport and train station. The Spanish border is only 1.5 hours' drive.
The Meze area
The sandy beach at Meze is ringed with a wide choice of restaurants which specialise in local seafood.
There are restaurants and supermarkets at Pézenas, 5 kms, which is famous for its antique dealers and big Saturday street market, also a public swimming pool.
Brilliant local markets, concerts and festivals year round include truffle and wine fairs. Private wine domaines hold classical concerts in lovely surroundings during the summer - under the stars in a fabulous chateau courtyard or in an atmospheric wine store - followed by wine tastings
