Holiday home - Quarante, France

Description

Spacious vacation home on a large plot with private pool and magnificent views! In the village of Quarante, in Languedoc-Roussillon, is this quietly located villa directly in the vineyards with views of the distant mountains. In front of the house is the olive grove of the owner with about a hundred olive trees!
The villa impresses with its volume. The living room leads into the open kitchen with counter and a dining room as well as a cozy sitting area with TV adjoining. From this comfortable and well-equipped area you can access the beautiful and wide wooden terrace, which is elevated and partially covered. Enjoy the enchanting view from the deck chair over the pool to the olive groves further towards the mountains. Our little ones can let off steam while you relax. And if that gets too boring there is a table football game and other nice games for the whole family on the mezzanine. The car can be parked on the property or in the large garage, which can accommodate several cars.
Quarante bears the name of the river that flows through the village. It is a lively place near the Canal du Midi. It has a 10th century abbey and a fantastic viewpoint. All necessary stores, two cafes with terraces, a bakery and three restaurants are located here. At the end of the village, the cooperative cellar offers wine tasting and direct sales. In summer, the villagers regularly organize festivals with music. In Cruzy, a nearby village, a beautiful farmers' market is held every Friday. Like many hamlets and other exceptional villages, Quarante is part of the magnificent Occitania region, which borders the Mediterranean and stretches from the Canal du Midi to the banks of the Orb. All these villages welcome you in the heart of the vineyards of the ?appellation? Saint Chinian, Minervois and Languedoc, just a few kilometers away.
Festivities take place every 3rd Sunday in July (with exceptions) for the Grande Fête du Cru, the festival of fine wines, in St Chinian. About 60 booths offer tastings of wines and local products. Why not opt for the ecological discovery of the region during your excursions and enjoy preferably on walks, bike rides or horseback rides the unspoiled countryside lined with beautiful buildings such as the Capitelles, dry stone walls, mills, chapels.
