The village of Azillanet is a brisk 15-minute walk from the villa, or 5-minutes in the car. It's a pretty village with lots of stone houses, a little grocer's who sells bread, a boulangerie van that arrives daily at 8.30am, and an 'auberge' open in the summer months for delicious local cuisine, with wine included, at a very reasonable price. Azillanet also boasts a great wine cave 'Les Trois Blasons' where you can taste the local wines and buy direct. The neighbouring town of Olonzac, and other local villages have further shops, banks, markets, bars and restaurants - all within an easy drive.
You can swim in the pool here, or for something different try swimming in the man-made 'swimming hole' in the River Cesse at Bize-Minevois, or from the Blue Flag beaches on the Mediterranean coast 45-minutes from here. All types of watersports are also available at the coast at Narbonne Plage or Gruissan - and many at the Lac du Jouarres more locally.
