Vacation Rental Description
The property was carefully converted into a home full of character. There are four bedrooms, two with double beds and two with twin beds, to accommodate up to eight guests in comfort. Around the house, the garden abounds with a variety of flowers, trees and bushes, and offers two very large lawns. The pool (11m x 5m) is surrounded by a granite terrace and a pool house. In the orchard, almond, fig, and olive trees grow.
The home is filled with interesting furniture, paintings, drawings, photos, and crafts.
A terrace covered in antique tiles provides an ideal spot for outdoor meals. It overlooks the pool and gardens and has a great view of the countryside beyond. The warmth of the village, the charm of the countryside, and the history of this family dwelling combine to make it an ideal retreat.
The house enjoys a splendid view of the surrounding countryside. The plain unfolds through the adjacent vineyards and runs to Le Mont d'Oupia far in the distance. The nearby village is free of tourists, even though it is within a short distance of many points of interest.
The village is located in the Minervois, a part of the Languedoc Roussillon region. One of the latest wine labels is called La Livignière, which is well appreciated by Robert Parker, the renowned wine expert. The area is often compared to Tuscany, in Italy, because of the similarities in the regions' agro-tourism resources. Both are known for their olive groves, olive oils, a wide range of culinary treasures, vegetables, fruits, cheeses (mostly goats' cheese), and of course their wines.
The Languedoc region is full of history. The village of Minerve (7 km from the house) was a strategic location for the medieval Cathar sect, and an important stopover for pilgrims on their way to Santiago de Compostella in Spain during medieval times. It was also the home of Simon de Montfort, the medieval nobleman who crushed the Cathars. Another key site of the middle ages, the abbey at Fontfroide Abbey is 25 km away, and well worth a visit.
Don't miss the chance to see the medieval citadel of Carcassonne, a World Heritage site, which has a wonderful covered market and an eighteen-hole golf course. The town of Pézenas is where the playwright Molière used to spend his summers away from Paris. His plays are performed there on a regular basis. Pézenas has plenty to see and do, with great museums, art and antiques galleries, crafts, and a variety of shops. Further afield is the Roman aqueduct of Pont du Gard, and the ancient cities of Arles and Nîmes, both of which have arenas dating back to the Roman era.
Narbonne hosts a beautiful covered market, which is open every day from 7:00am till 1:00pm. Many important wine caves are scattered all around the region, and sampling is encouraged. On the way to Béziers, stop in Bizes (20 km), a small village that has the only olive cellar in the area, where one can buy different types of olive oil, olives, numerous types of jams, crafts, soaps, and much more. Every Sunday morning there's an excellent market in the village of Ferrals les Montagnes, up in the mountains (15 km) where one can find lots of different types of food including bread, fish, meats, cheeses, jams, and much more.
The world famous Canal du Midi, declared a world monument An afternoon boat ride on the Canal du Midi is a must. The nearest departure takes place in Homps, 7 km from the village. There are many restaurants right on the edge of the canal. The lake of Jouarres (7 km away) is a popular destination for surfers, thanks to its strong and regular winds, while others enjoy flying their kites on the shore. For beach lovers, the seashores of Narbonne-Plage and Gruissan are only 35 km.
Airports are located in Béziers (50 km), Toulouse (160 km), Montpellier (130 km) and Carcassonne (45 km). The high-speed TGV stops at Narbonne, 28 km away.
