Location
The property is located in the village of Caux.
The medieval village of Caux (population 2,905) is located deep in the heart of the Languedoc vineyards, 6 kilometres North of Pézenas, between Béziers and Montpellier. Mediterranean coast is 16 miles.
Village has grocery store, wine outlets, café bars, take-away pizza, bakery, post-office, weekly market etc.
The Renaissance town of Pézenas is a 5 minutes drive for huge choice of fantastic, traditional restaurants and pavement cafés and bars.
Unmissable Saturday market. Beautiful architecture amongst the winding streets.
Artisan shops and many cultural events during summer - concerts and festivals etc. Four supermarkets and many antique shops.
Mediterranean coastline 30 minutes with almost endless child-friendly beaches. All watersports, restaurants and cafés.
Wine-tasting all around in the Languedoc vineyards. 'Le Prieuré Saint-Jean de Bébian is one of the oldest vineyards in France dating back to 1152.
Cap d'Agde (25 minutes) has further beaches and water sports, boat trips, beautiful harbour, golf, casino, fashionable shopping, nightclubs, waterfront restaurants and the very chic in-crowd of holiday-makers from Paris.
Béziers (25 minutes) has perhaps the best flower market in the whole of the south on Fridays in the beautiful tree-lined main boulevard. 4 day traditional party ('Féria') in August. Excellent covered market and large hypermarkets.
Don't miss a visit to the famous Canal du Midi which links the Atlantic with the Mediterranean. Miles of flat walks along the shady toe-paths, occasionally interrupted by fabulous cafés and restaurants. Nowadays, the only commercial traffic on the canal is the occasional barge loaded with wine. Boat hire is readily available and is a lovely way to discover the vineyards of Minervois or Corbières.
Lake Salagou (40 minutes) offers an alternative to the busy coast, with its freshwater lake swimming and water sports.
Spectacular scenery in the Languedoc National Park, with opportunities for walking and trekking.
Further afield;
Carcassonne 80 minutes.
Reviews
We just wanted to let you know that we have just returned from 2 wonderful weeks at the above property in the village of Caux. The house is beautiful - even thought there were only the two of us, we felt very at home and everyone we met in the village was very friendly.
Wainman family
Thank you for letting us rent your beautiful home. We had a fantastic time. I personally could have stayed forever. It was a very special time for us being able to spend time with my cousin from NZ and his family. The house really is quite stunning - I do think it should be featured in 'Beautiful Homes!'
