France to take a holiday villa or vacation rental. Languedoc – Roussillon has something for everyone – literally. It has the mountains of the Pyrenees and the Massif Central. The peaks of the
Pyrenees reach up to around three thousand metres and during the winter months are a magnet for skiers of all different levels of experience. There are many resorts offering fine skiing and snowboarding opportunities for all with ski chalets available to rent during the winter months.

As with most wine growing regions in France there are plenty of tours and activities centred around the wine industry. Being a relatively agricultural region there is plenty of fresh produce around and in fact the region is well known for its rustic and healthy Mediterranean cuisine.

It really is worth taking the time just to get out and explore a little bit, as the rewards for a small effort are great!
