the stone house air-conditioned B&B near pezenas south of france languedoc
so, you're thinking
about joining us at the stone house b&b near pezenas.
that's great news! okay, so first things first: let's talk
about your arrival in caux.
park the car where you'd like, wear what you'd like . . .
and feel yourself begin to relax. take a deep breath of the
mountain air and make yourself at home as you step back in
time.
don't be surprised if you hear our mayor talking to you. he tends to broadcast the day's news - or whatever else happens to be on his mind - from loudspeakers perched on top of the cathedral. yes, really.
you'll also need to watch out for the village's older residents on their bicycles: bags of fruit and long baguettes can sometimes make them a little unsteady.
. . . and go easy on the croissants in the morning: warm from the oven, one quickly leads to another, and then another.
these are the only
things you'll need to worry about in caux.
the village of caux has two bars, a pizza place with a
small outdoor eating area, two bakeries, a pharmacy, two
newsagents, and a greengrocer. you can read more about caux
by clicking here.
we don't have a pool at the stone house, but this gorgeous
pool, below, belongs to les cordeliers, a friendly local
restaurant just five minutes from here . . . of course,
their lunch and dinner guests are invited to use the pool .
. . and (very) comfortable sun loungers . . . for as long
as they'd like.
pezenas, just a
five-minute drive away, was described in the rough guide as
'one of the most beautiful towns in southwest france,' with
its cobbled streets, pavement cafes, shops, artisan
workshops, and restaurants. fresh-baked bread and
croissants, warm crepes, waffles, ice cream, local wine and
cheese are everywhere - indulge yourself!
the coast and the
mountains are both less than 30 minutes away. for a taste
of civilisation, beziers (25 mins) and montpellier (45
mins) offer a wide range of galleries, concert halls,
theatres, museums, shops, cafes and restaurants.
. . . for the
sports enthusiast, the area offers everything from
horseback riding to kayaking, and from hiking to caving.
so, what are you waiting for? we know that your kids are
probably driving you crazy. or that your parents are. or
maybe both, if you're really
lucky.
ask for some time off from work, leave the commute and the
headaches behind, and come and see us. you won't need fancy
clothes, we don't use coasters, and we don't even own an
iron. just bring yourself, a good appetite . . and maybe a
book or two.
