Quiet village house, large peaceful garden, pool, all amenities, beaches 30 mins

Les Hirondelles was redecorated in 2021 and 22 and is a 19th century, stone built house, cool in summer, warm and centrally heated in the cooler months. It consists of two separate living areas on two floors. The ground floor is accessed from the front of the house and can sleep up to 4 people in a through lounge/sleeping area, and a separate large double bedroom together with a separate shower and utility room and toilet. Internet is available throughout the house.

The first floor is accessed by external stairs at the side of the house. It has four rooms that are all 13 metres square including the lounge, two double bedrooms (one with a king size bed the other with two single beds). In addition to this there is a well-equipped kitchen and a recently modernised (2022) shower room and toilet.

The house has Netflix, French terrestial TV (Orange) and UK satellite TV. It has many DVD's, book, games and jigsaws to help you relax and while away your holiday evenings.

The garden is on four sides of the house with many areas to relax in. The front has two private areas to breakfast, have a drink or take the sun towards the end of the day. The rear garden is laid to grass with 10m X 4M salt water pool and a tiled terrace. The garden is landscaped with trees, bushes and plants and gets the sun for much of the day. At the top of the house is a summerhouse that holds the pool and lounge equipment.

The house is in a quiet road 5 minutes from the centre of the village. The railway passes close by and the station is at the end of the road giving easy access to Beziers and Millau and Montpelier, Paris and Barcelona via a connection in Beziers.
