Charming, detached, romantic stone cottage in hillside village

New to the self-catering holiday market is this pretty, romantic stone cottage in the lovely village of Oupia. It's unique in that it is a detached property, newly-renovated, decorated and furnished to a very high standard. You can enjoy relaxing and al fresco dining in the private, walled courtyard. The owners have thought of everything here to make your stay more enjoyable - even down to supplying hairdryers and beach towels - great if you're flying with a low-cost airline. The cottage dates from 1881 and has an 'old' exterior but is modern inside with all new fittings and appliances. It comprises on the ground floor a lovely kitchen/diner, shower room and twin bedroom and on the first floor a master double bedroom, a bathroom with separate shower and a sitting room which over-looks the courtyard.

Just a couple of minutes away by car, or 10-minutes by bike, is the town of Olonzac which has a wider range of shops, restaurants and cafe-bars. Days out would include a visit to the Mediterranean beaches, Carcassonne, Narbonne, the Canal du Midi, the Cathar Castles and even a day trip to Spain. Sports Facilites: Watersports lovers will find sailing, diving, wind-surfing, water-ski-ing etc at the Mediterranean coastal resorts about 45 minutes drive away, or more locally at Lac du Jouarres near Homps. Locally cycling and walking are fantastic things to do - just to enjoy the lovely views. Within a half-hour drive golfers can enjoy the golf courses at Beziers and at Carcassonne.

Guests comments

The house was just perfect! Thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. We loved it and have enjoyed living here for a week! Stunning views everywhere - and the Canal du Midi is beautiful to stroll along. We would love to come here again and enjoy even more of the lovely weather and beautiful surroundings. Merco pour les vacances formidable!! Family from Suffolk, England. August 2008. A very beautiful house with a very private and peaceful courtyard. The village is lovely with magnificent views. The Tuesday market in Olonzac is definitely worth going to! We have had a wonderful time and would like to come here again. We would also recommend the house to others. Family form N. Ireland. August 2008.
