Location and Map

This marker is for indication purpose only

The villa is on the edge of the village of St Geniès-de-Fontédit. The centre (village square) is about a five minute stroll from the villa, with a mini market which stocks everything you need, baker (fantastic bread and cakes most made on the premises) and a tabac. The vine yard we go to for our local wine is under 10 minutes walk from the villa but there are others all around the village.

The main supermarket (Intermarche) is a five minute drive from the villa.

The centre of the village is one of the many medieval circulardes in the area.

Golf is available at Lamalou Les Bains (25 mins) and Beziers (30 mins).

Less than a 5 mins drive is a wonderful restaurant and wine shop at Chateau Grézan, owned by the famous Lanson family.

Beziers and its fiesta of flamenco and bullfighting in August and the Canal du Midi is 25 minutes away.

The historic town of Carcassonne is an hour away.

The ancient town of Pezenas with antique shops and large number of restaurants is 25 minutes away.

Walking, lakes and river swimming are all available in the National Park 20 mins north.

Set midway between historic cities of Montpellier and Carcassonne, the villa can be found at St Genies de Fontedit. The village of St Genies is a major wine-producer with its own wine co-operative and local outlets. During the summer there are summer fetes. There are local markets in nearby villages/towns all days of the week.

Beziers is the nearest airport (25 mins) served by Ryanair from Bristol and Luton (not all year). Montpellier and Carassonne both an hour away, Perpignan and Nimes just over an hour away. If driving; 10 hours drive from Calais, 8.5/9 hours from Le Harve or Caen. Use of a car is essential.

There is a large number of beaches within 25/40 minutes drive, ranging from small to Cape d’Agde with a water park and water sports. River swimming and canoeing along the rivers, Roquebrun being one of the most popular villages for this. Lake Salagou north of the villa in the National Park has an artificial beach and sailing facilities which is cooler than the beach on hot summer days.

Customer Reviews

  • Sebastian V. | August, 2021

    We spent four wonderful weeks in this lovely villa!

    We spent four wonderful weeks in this lovely villa. The location is very quiet, the pool/garden area is completely secluded and offers total privacy. The bedrooms are comfortable and three bathrooms are real luxury. We had a great time here and when we returned home we were totally relaxed. The villa is the ideal spot for holidays in Languedoc. Many tourist attractions, vineyards etc. are within easy reach. The only thing we missed was a real restaurant in the village (there is only a bar which serves a little food and a take away pizzeria). So we cooked ourselves which was an pleasure in the well equipped kitchen of the villa. And dining on the terrace was great.
