Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Our house was originally a "maison vigneron" where wine was produced from the owners vineyards. Marseillan is an ancient village with a small harbour through which wine used to be exported via the Canal du Midi. The village is separated from the Mediterranean beaches by a saltwater lagoon in which oysters and mussels are raised. The sandy Mediterranean beach is 12 km long and between Marseillan Plage and Sete is completely un-spoilt; there are virtually no buildings at all.

Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

A 12 km sandy beach on the Mediterranean is separated from the village by a saltwater lagoon which is popular with yachtsmen and windsurfers. The beach is less than 10 minutes by car. Alternatively, there is a very attractive cycle track to the beach that takes about 25 minutes.

There are plenty of restaurants in the village and Trip Adviser can direct. Too many to list favourites.

Local markets

About 45 minutes drive inland is the start of the Cevennes, ideal for hillwalking and canoeing.

Sophisticated shopping and galleries in Montpellier, 45 minutes by car

Local seafood aplenty
