The village has everything to make your stay comfortable and is just a 4 minute walk away to the typical village square where various festivals are held throughout the year.
It has a market 3 days a week, a couple of cafes, 2 restaurants, 3 bakeries plus other shops. A large supermarket is just 3 minutes drive away.
Situated just 10 minutes drive from Béziers town the property is also convenient for the various cultural events available here. These include 'the Féria' in mid August, and the Fete Occitane celebrations in June to mark the 'Occitan', the ancient and still used local language and culture.
The countryside around Cazouls offers many opportunities as well, being ideal for cycling, rambling, fishing, climbing in the hills of the Languedoc, skiing in the Pyrénnées just 2 hours drive away, or canoeing practically on the doorstep at Réals on the River Orb.
The Canal du Midi is also within a short drive and as well as boats and picnics provides an ideal place for walking and cycling on its towpaths. Golf is available at St Thomas near Béziers or Lamalou the spa town in the nearby Languedoc National Park.
Cazouls is a 30 minute drive to the beaches and a 30-40 minute drive towards the Orb Valley road and more serious walking (the Espinouse Mountain Range and the High Languedoc National Park).
The tourist information centre is on the main road going out of Cazouls, towards Béziers. The staff are very friendly and there are often many impromptu events to join in with. Look at the posters on the bakery windows for news of any forthcoming events.
Get a tourist information leaflet on the local sights. Easy walking to the table of orientation set amongst the vineyards. On clear days it is easy to see the Pyrénées.
On the way you will pass the Parapluie, the remains of an ancient Roman hot spring used until fairly recently. You will also pass a winery; knock on the door and buy a bottle or two!
If you are feeling energetic you can carry on walking to the Abbey Fontcaude. Here,in the ancient hamlet there is a beautiful, medieval church and visitors centre.
For the less energetic the hamlet can be reached from the main Saint Chinian road.

The beaches of the Mediterranean are only a short drive away, while to the north the mountains offer a number of cooler lakes, ideal for a refreshing dip in the summer.
Cathar history is present almost everywhere and the ancient fortress of Carcassonne is only an hours drive away and is well worth a visit, especially on jousting days!
