Description:

3 bedroom apartment with private terrace in beautiful South of France medieval UNESCO world heritage site village

Vacation Rental Description

Set in the beautiful department of Languedoc-Roussillon, which lays claim to 134 miles of beaches, and over 300 sunny days a year, the medieval fortified village of Villefranche is: 50 minutes from the Mediterranean coast, 50 minutes from the ski slopes, 1 hour 10 minutes from the Spanish border and 1 hour 50 minutes from Andorra. The village occupies a prized location at the confluence of the Cady and Tet Rivers and lies at the base of three mountains, one of these being the sacred mountain of the Catalans, Mount Canigou.

As you approach the village, you see only its ramparts and fortifications, which, founded in 1092, have remained untouched by subsequent development. Its civic architecture, (22 thirteenth- and fourteenth century facades are registered as historical monuments), is as well preserved as its military ramparts. Within its walls, the village comprises a series of medieval lanes with beautiful wrought iron signs identifying the numerous shops and restaurants.

This luxurious and spacious apartment can accommodate up to 9 people. It is to be found in the heart of the medieval village, just across the road from the traditional Catalan bakery. Oozing character and charm, it is newly refurbished in such a way as to retain original features such as marble and polished wooden floors and traditional wooden beams. Featuring an eclectic mix of antique and classical furnishings, combined with modern fittings, it is designed to provide comfortable and yet authentic accommodation. The apartment has three double bedrooms (one of which offers a four-poster bed, with a second offering a traditional ¾ bed and a single bed, both fashioned from brass and cast iron), two shower-rooms/WC, and a salon comprising kitchen/sitting room/dining room. This apartment also benefits from a fully-enclosed terrace area which backs onto the medieval city walls. A travel cot, extra single bed, pushchair and toys are available to take some of the headache out of travelling with young children.
