On the doorstep
This is our local village - a 10-minute stroll from the gite. It is small but has a variety of businesses and everyone is made welcome. It is a proper, living village with its own quite unique personality. We love it!

An incredibly well preserved fortified village. Sometimes known as Carcassonne in miniature (let's say very miniature) but very beautiful. 2 Good restaurants and activities for children

City/town information
This is our nearest town and it is lovely. Originally the Roman capital of Southern France it is rich in history with a wonderful museum. Many of the buildings are constructed using the technique of "colombage" - a rather beautiful feature of the architecture of the region.
