Plaissan is a medium sized village in the heart of the Languedoc vineyards and Villa Rose is set in a peaceful position less than 5 minutes’ walk to the village with shops, bar, restaurant. Restaurants, supermarkets, street markets, shops, banks etc can be found in the lively market town of Clermont l’Herault a 15 minute drive away.

Swimming at Mediterranean beaches, 35 minutes, Lake Salagou (also fishing and water sports), and River Hérault (canoe hire) 15 minutes. Concerts and festivals are held in surrounding villages and towns throughout the year.

Whether you’re looking for sand and the sea, fabulous historic towns, picturesque Medieval villages, French sophistication, the region is so diversified you’ll find it all on your doorstep. You’ll certainly find the sun, with over 300 days of sunshine per year on average.

There are plenty of interesting historical sites to visit locally in this area, France’s best kept secret. An hour's drive takes you to splendid Roman towns such as Avignon, Nîmes, Arles to the east. Even more history unfolds itself with a visit to Carcassonne and the Cathar castles, which are within easy reach. Take a drive up to the Larzac plain to marvel at the amazingly well preserved fortified 15th century villages built by the Templar and Hospitaliers Knights.

For a touch of true French sophistication, Montpellier (40 min.) offers the arts, theatre, shopping, an international airport and train station.

The delightful little port of Meze, has a sandy beach suitable for young children, with swimming and is recommended for its superb seafood restaurants.

There’s a vast choice of clean, sandy Mediterranean beaches 35 kms. For swimming, fishing and non-motorised water sports try popular Lac Salagou, 10 kms or the cool, clean River Herault 15 kms.

Seafood is one of the area’s best kept secrets, with colourful fishing villages along this part of the French Mediterranean coast providing fabulous feasts. Sete is one of the most popular. You can dine extremely well on the fresh local seafood, enjoying the sunshine looking over the sparkling Mediterranean sea.

The stunning Gorges du Tarn, with magnificent scenery and numerous exceptionally picturesque villages can be visited in a day.

If you want to get active, try the recommended golf course at scenic Lamalou les Bains, a 40 minute drive, hiking in unspoilt forests or cycle some of the Tour de France route, which passes somewhere nearby every year.

This region, Languedoc, is France's best kept secret, with sleepy villages of sun-warmed stones and red tiled roofs, surrounded by magnificent scenery. It is the largest wine producing area in France and there are many tasting opportunities to be found in ‘cave co-operatives’ and private domains. Late August/early September is a good time to visit, when the grape harvest is in full swing.

Airports: Beziers (30 mins), Montpellier (45 mins), Nimes, Carcassonne, Perpignan one hour, Toulouse & Marseille two hours. The TGV from Montpellier to Paris takes 3.5 hrs.

Train: TGV Paris/Montpellier 3.5 hours.

Superb villa

5 of 5
Submitted: June 20, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
Villa Rose is a superb spacious villa with everything one could ask for in a holiday home. The property is well maintained and spotlessly clean. It comprises a huge living and dining room with bar, a large, extremely well equipped kitchen with utility room off, and three bedrooms, a twin and double on the ground floor and another double on the first floor. There are 2 bathrooms, an ensuite to the double on the ground floor and another cloakroom. Outside is a lovely pool area with outside dining, which we made good use of for sunny lunches. The owner's agent, Brenda, was extremely helpful with all aspects of the booking process and instructions and information about the villa and the local area. There are supermarkets within 15 minutes drive in Clermont L'Herault, and the Hyper U has an excellent fish counter if you are self-catering. We enjoyed the short drive to the coast on several occasions to dine out and can recommend Restaurant Le Thau in Meze, Chez Phillippe in Marseillan and Cote Bleu in Bouzigues, among others. For a day at the beach, Cap D'Agde is very pleasant with sandy beaches on offer. We regularly rent holiday villas in France, Spain and italy and can safely say that this property is one of the best we have ever stayed in.
Owner's Response: We are delighted to hear that our guests enjoyed their stay so much and hope to welcome them back in the near future.

Excellent villa, well equipped

Submitted: October 26, 2011 Stayed: July 2010
An excellent stay in a comfortable villa. The villa matched the description. On arrival the villa was excellently presented, sparkling clean, good quality bedding and soft furnishings. An excellent villa for a family with 2 adults and 2 children and a couple as bedrooms are located in separate parts of the villa. The kitchen is well equipped with every imaginable shape and size of crockery you could ever need! Plenty of outside chairs, huge dining table, very good sized pool.

W Family - September 2009

5 of 5
Submitted: September 25, 2009 Stayed: September 2009
Wonderful holiday property, excellently equipped with everything you could want!! Local 'contact', Bill, was also very helpful. Property is in easy reach of both tourist and other facilities. We had a great holiday. The visitors book at the Villa and the introductory paperwork sent by the Agent contained some recommendations for visits, including restaurants, sightseeing, local markets (inc. days & times). We tried many and thank both Brenda (Agent) and other visitors for their suggestions.

Just one word of caution - if you drive a 'low' (i.e. near the road) vehicle (like a Nissan Tino) watch out for the short 'stop' pole in the middle of the electronic gates entrance - it works out very costly to replace the entire exhaust system!!!
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Sightseeing
Owner's Response: We are so pleased to hear that the W family enjoyed their holiday and were kind enough to post their review.

We've been letting the villa for two years and this is the first incident with the gate stop, which is actually the standard size. However, we now advise guests driving ‘low’ vehicles to proceed slowly when entering the drive, although it is only a gentle slope up to the villa.

A Wonderful Villa

5 of 5
Submitted: August 9, 2009 Stayed: July 2009
The villa was excellent, clean, spacious and exceeded our expectations. The location was great, just on the outskirts of the village, but within walking distance of the local shop selling bread and provisions, and a take away pizzeria (a hit with the children). It is one of the best we have stayed in, with everything you could need. The agent Brenda was superb, in supplying information on what to see and do in the area before we arrived, and was always quick to respond to emails. I would thoroughly recommend this villa.
