The area is called - Les Jardins St. Jacques -which historically was the garden for the monks of the St. Jacques church supplying produce to the growing connerbation of Perpignan.
This is a highly sought after location locally because of its peace and quiet and yet the entrance to Les Jardens st.jacques is right on the edge of a very attractive side of Perpignan. You can walk to the attractive centre of the city from the house. The majestic mountain - Canigou dominates the horizon and during the day, the gardens are a haven for many types of birds and some exotic species migrate to the farmhouse gardens.

The Languedoc-Roussillon / Pyrenees-Orientales region
The colourful and exotic city of Perpignan Right on the doorstep of Les Jardins des StJacques is the city of Perpignan. It takes two minutes by car and is a lovely walk from the farmhouse. It is hard to think how anyone would want for more from a city. It is full of sophisticated shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and music clubs. There are many interesting festivals held in the city during the year. The old quarter of the city is home to several multicultural food markets and full of fascinating Catalan architecture. The icing on the cake is that almost at every turn, the city is full of exotic palm trees.
Perpignan area
Roussillon, The Med, The Pyrenees & Spain This is a truly superb region for any type of holiday you could wish for and at any time of year. Roussillon is the sunniest part of France with approx. 320 sunshine days a year with the autumn being a real treat and break from colder parts of Europe. The Med resorts of Canet, Barcares, St.Cyprien and Argeles all with marvellous beaches are all just minutes away. The famous and beautiful Collioure, Ceret and Figueres in Spain are loaded with artistic history. The majestic Pyrenees wrap themselves around Roussillon and tumble into the Med, the lush countryside is quite simply carpeted with sun baked vineyards. If all that was not enough, the lovely Costa Brava of Spain is Roussillon's southern neighbour.
