Superb local surroundings



Languedoc is an ever popular region of France sitting sunnily in the South West corner of the country where the border with Spain meets the Mediterranean.


The Canal du Midi runs right through the area and at its nearest point is just a few km away from the villa making lovely days out by the waters edge very easy and even hiring a craft from Capestang or any of the many canal centres dotted along its route is fun to do.


In the village of Agel itself all is peace and tranquility. The nearest small shops are 2km away in the neighbouring village of Aigues Vives or 4km in the delightful Bize Minervois so a car is essential but it would work as a holiday with just bikes to get around with if you wanted to fly hire and taxi!

The drive from UK is a full day but its a very pleasant one with the Millau Bridge (Sir Norman Foster) one of the many highlights en route.

Paris is easily avoided and although I like to break the trip overnight in Orleans it is very doable in one day if you plan your tunnel or ferries accordingly!

Bize Minervois



Situated between Narbonne and the black mountains on the river Cesse near Minerve, Bize is a small village with all that you need for a good family day out in summer.
