The historic and vibrant capital city of Montpellier, with its fine contrast of classic and ultra modern architecture, theatres and museums, is an easy 35 minute drive away.
The Mediterranean Sea, with its miles of beautiful sandy beaches, can be reached in only 40 minutes.
There are masses of excellent restaurants behind the beaches, and beside the Etang du Thau at Bouzigues, Meze and Marseillan Port, that specialise in freshly-caught sea food dishes.
The region is a paradise for artists and ramblers.
At A Place In The Vines you can choose whether to relax on the patio, in the pool or discover one of France's best kept secrets ... the beauty of the Languedoc.
