There are many interesting towns and villages to see, including the famous Carcassonne 90 minutes away, and noted for its 'Cathar' history. From the coastline, up into the mountains, there are many unspoilt locations to explore! The villa is in the heart of Catalan. One will not only hear French spoken, but Catalan is spoken freely.
Nearby Ceret is a typical traditional French town and has a Catalan character. There are many good restaurants and bars within the centre. The market each Saturday is the largest in the area and second to none and there are regular local festivals throughout the year with music, dancing, food and wine.
The hamlet of Le Vila is situated on Le Tech river. It is peaceful and quiet and ample opportunities to walk and discover.
The climate can be warm all year around but generally, the good weather is 'set in' from May to September. July can be the hottest month. Banyuls just 25km away has been described as the sunniest place in France!
