Well protected from the northerly ‘Mistral’-winds, Mas Labau is embedded in a most beautiful Mediterranean landscape setting, just below the limestone cliffs of the ‘Hortus’-mountains, a nature preserve, covered with the stone-oak and pine forest and the local Garrigue-vegetation. Access from the next village is provided by a small road that winds up-hill through vineyards, patches of beach-pine forest, olive plantations and ends below the old, hamlet-like buildings. In just 2 minutes walking distance one enters the forest where one can walk for hours, climb the peaks of Hortus or the neighbouring Pic St. Loup or explore the underground caves. Though secluded in its natural setting the lively village of St. Mathieu (7 km) provides all basic services: shops, super-market, doctors, a couple of restaurants. Within 25 min drive one reaches the Herault valley, an opportunity to swim and to hire a canoe.
