A spacious, light, modern comfortable villa in a quiet residential area near the edge of Laroque des Alberes, with views of the mountains, the old fort in Laroque and over the plain towards the sea. Laroque des Alberes is a traditional Catalan village 10km from the sea at the foot of the Alberes hills. The historic centre of the village, containing an old fort and church, is a picturesque short walk away. Laroque has village shops - a small supermarket, tabac, bakeries, butcher, chemist - several bars and restaurants, a pizza takeaway, a small weekly market and a helpful tourist office. A larger supermarket is a few minutes drive away

Grapes thrive in this climate too and the famous Banyuls, Minervois and Cotes du Roussillon wines are produced locally and are widely available from the local vineyards covering the countryside
