Christmas 2011


Strange as it may sound as I sip a chilled juice in the garden, we are receiving requests for Christmas 2011. Last year we announced our festive celebrations in July so forgive me now if we are two months early. So far, this is what we are organising…

3-NIGHT CHRISTMAS PACKAGE 2011
A genuine spirit of hospitality prevails at Maison De L’Orb – a hosue of decorations, a “gift” in every room and a blazing wood fire in the dining room. The focus as ever is on food and festivity and there is always a stash of tangerines, nuts, nibbles and chocolates to pick at.

Christmas Eve – Saturday, 24th December
Explore Beziers in the morning, the shops are open and there is always festivity in the air. Something fabulous from Jeff Du Bruges in your room, home-made mince pies in the guests room, a pre-prandial glass of champagne, four-course dinner to include coffee.

Christmas Day – Sunday, 25th December
Continental breakfast, a four-course Christmas lunch with all the trimmings (Vegetarians catered for naturally –we do a fabulous mushroom nut roast) and our very own Christmas pudding. A light buffet supper in the evening.

Boxing Day – Monday, 26th December
A (not too early) delicious and lazy brunch, afternoon tea with home-made Christmas cake, a four- course a la dinner to include coffee.

Bank Holiday – Tuesday, 27th December
Breakfast and farewells.

We are currently working out menus and prices as well as a New Year package but do email us for further information. If you would like to add Friday, 23rd December to the package, we would be able to offer a discount.

Maison De L'Orb

Maison De L’Orb is that rare thing...An intimate chambre de hote in the beautiful, sunny tranquil town of Beziers, South West France.

Breakfast is served daily offering a continental style breakfast with home made pastries, fresh fruit, homemade preserves, breads, muesli, homemade granola, yoghurt, and poached fruits. You may wish to indulge in our full English breakfast cooked to order.

Our dining area can cater to your needs. It enjoys splendid views over the garden and River Orb and there is an imposing open fireplace where we spit roast locally caught fish and game.

We can also offer a four course evening menu of tempting dishes prepared fresh daily from locally sourced and organic ingredients wherever possible. We offer regional specialities and there are vegetarian and vegan options on request. Barbecues and a delicious afternoon tea are a speciality. Sample menus upon request - all food is home-made. The food is complemented by wine from our young but developing cellar.

Each day is different and when the weather is hot and sunny we offer many events in our very own private garden overlooking the river. We offer wine tasting and complimentary appetiser’s, you can chat to the owners and other guests, plan the next day’s events or maybe wish to source further information on buying your own French property.

Beziers
Beziers is oozing with history and has a surprising number of attractions including parks and gardens, museums, art galleries, theatres and bars, and restaurants serving delicious local cuisine.

Beziers is not just a magnificent larder; its chefs also have flair. A number of young chefs, some of whom have “come down” from Paris to rediscover the taste of local products, have shown real genius in updating the Languedoc’s gastronomic heritage.

Unlike some destinations for a city break in Europe, Béziers does not have huge crowds, inflated prices and a mob of foreign tourists descending on it. This small city, with its stunning cathedral and fabulous Canal du Midi, has a more peaceful charm, so that you can walk the historic streets without being crushed. Béziers is surrounded by some of the prettiest countryside in southern France and is just a few miles from the Mediterranean coast, making it a perfect base for holidays in the south of France.

The city is also within easy access to Carcassonne, Site, Adge and Narbonne. Languedoc-Roussillon is typically Mediterranean - hot dry summers, rain in the short winter with moderate springs and autumns.
