Photos and Description of this Marseillan holiday house 3 Bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 shower room, sleeps 6-7

The lively port town of Marseillan, on the inland sea 'Etang de Thau', surrounded by vineyards, is certainly becoming one of the most valued seaside holiday destinations. It is a combination of the old flavour of fishing practices, wine-making, nearby Roman sites and the modern, with smart restaurants, sandy beaches, wine tasting and activities, that makes Marseillan unique. This wonderful house hidden in the centre of the old village, 300 metres from the port, has been completely rebuilt on the inside to develop a mezzanine level bathed in sunlight, natural lime finished walls and all modern comfort including air-conditioning and internet ADSL access.

A wonderful experience...

Darrell & Fran Portland, Maine, US
Review Submitted: May 7, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
The house is extremely well-maintained, newly renovated, clean, well-appointed, and close to everything in Marseillan village. The owners were very responsible in all of their dealings with us, and the location makes a stay in the village a pleasure. One can walk to everything: market, supermarket, presse, beach, port, many restaurants, bakery, butcher, cafes, bars, post office, and so on. The Etang beach affords a wonderful trail for walking by the water, and fresh seafood is available throughout the neighborhood. We stayed a month, and would have welcomed several more!

Everything in the house works: dishwasher, laundry, kitchen appliances, and so on. And the owners have put much thought into the aesthetics of the place, making light, where it was difficult, adding artful;touches everywhere, providing a BBQ and outdoor table for the deck, and so on.

We recommend this rental without reservation.

A fantastic break in Marseillan

Mikra Lancaster
Review Submitted: April 9, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We loved our stay in this beautiful property, which is far more than just a holiday home. The house is quite unique with many really interesting individual touches and the owners clearly love it. We found the layout very convenient and spent a lot of time on the top floor, which offers every comfort and accommodates a super roof terrace.
Although we visited in March, the weather was really nice and we were outdoors a great deal. When at home, the peace and quiet was a real tonic.
Marseillan is pretty unspoilt and didn't feel over touristy at all. There was everything we wanted and more than we expected for a small town/village - the port is beautiful and there are plenty of places to eat out or just stop for coffee, a good choice of shopping facilities, bakeries and a market By the end of our 11 day stay, we were chatting to the locals and felt very at home!
There are no end of places to visit within reasonable travelling distance. We enjoyed our trips to Carcassonne, the Natural Park and Roqubrun plus the Camargue (fabulous but take mosquito repellant!) but it really wouldn't be too far to the Pyrenees or to Spain. More locally the beaches are really good, Pezenas is great and well worth a visit.
We'd love to return and would happily recommend this property and location.

Review Submitted: April 5, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
First went to this house with the family (four of us) two years ago and liked it so much that we returned last year. It has been beautifully converted with lots of unique features such as the mezzanine with a living room and fully-equipped kitchen area; the terrasse is ideal for meals outdoors and the bedrooms are quiet and cool - the addition of air-conditioning helps when the temperature rises. We took the car both time and have never had any difficulty parking and Marseillan itself is a delightful village, with cafés, restaurants, markets and of course the port, which is a central attraction both by day and at night. The beach is about 15 minutes away by car; cycling would also be viable; Sète and Pézénas are both great to visit and we have also had the opportunity to see Montpellier, Nimes, the Pont du Gard, as well as Béziers and Narbonne, so there is no shortage of things to do. The local countryside is delightful and there are lots of vinyards and caves so it's possible to try out a lot of different local wines. The children loved the house and the original style in which it is decorated, and everything works properly from the showers to the kitchen appliances, so we were always confident that we would not be returing from a day out to a scene of chaos (which can sometimes happen!!!) I would recommend this house to anyone - you certainly won't be disappointed!
