Local Information

The property is located on the edge of the small village of St Jean de Minervois.
The village has a good restaurant and mobile grocery van 4 days per week.
All amenities in St Chinian, 15 min.

Only a few steps from the house one can start lovely walks through the vineyards, and impressive gorges covered in green oak, thyme, box and other regional flora that will remain green throughout the year.

The house is located in the department of l’Herault (southern most department of France bordering the Mediterranean) in the Languedoc Roussillon province land inwards from Béziers and Narbonne.

No shortage of beautiful nature in this area. The Parc Régional du Haut Languedoc with its 180.000 acres of magnificent forest and 247 species of birds is a very diverse area offering heather fields, beech forests, plains and meadows. All these contrasts can be seen in the enormous dale of Monts de Lacaune on the plateau of Sidobre.

The hinterland has some wonderful wine regions like Saint Chinian, Faugéres, Minervois and the Corbiéres. Narbonne is only 40 minutes drive away.

This town bordering the Mediterranean has lovely sandy beaches, (55 min) seaside resorts and summer activities.

But also culture lovers will be pleased with the area. The impressive remains (fortresses, castles, keeps) of the Cathars can be visited in the places like Minerve, Roquebrun and the astonishing Carcassonne. Narbonne is an ancient Roman port with it's beautiful cathedral and former arch bishops palace. The region has many old abbeys and other historical sites. And of course there is nice shopping in Narbonne and Béziers.
