Autumn Make Over


A little garden make over is now complete in time for autumbal sunshine and for those guests wishing to snatch a few hours relaxing with a book and glass or two of something.

The pool has been removed for the next season and replaced with a gazebo - excellent for late seasonal barbecues. We have four new loungers, an additional four seating area, newly pruned trees and bulbs planted ready for spring. We have also disposed of the table umbrella and replaced it with a clean bigger umbrella which has UVC 80.

Pictures to be added shortly. Lets hope the sunshine stays for a few weeks yet.

We are also one dog down sadly - more of that and other news can be found via our diary blog at www.maisondelordiary.blogspot.com

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.
