This pretty, one bedroomed house, nestling in the back streets of the old mediaeval village of Quarante, has been recently renovated to create a comfortable house for two people.
ACCESS
Quarante is about half an hours drive from the middle-sized towns of Beziers and Narbonne, where there are main TGV train stations, plus all the main car-hire companies. Ryan air do very competitively priced flights from Stanstead to Carcassonne, Perpignan, both of which are about 1 hours drive from Quarante, and there are also several car-hire companies to be found at these airports. Equally British Airways, Buzz and Air France do flights from London to Montpellier, about 1 hour 20 from Quarante. Toulouse and Barcelona are also within easy driving - 2-3 hours, and are perfect for international air flights coming from all over the world.
You can now fly direct from Beziers Cap d'Agde airport (30 mins drive) to London Stansted, or Bristol.

Abbey church at Quarante
The house is situated in the old part of the village, and retains a sense of antiquity with its narrow streets and arched doorways.
The church dates back to the 10th century, but there are remnants of a Roman settlement scattered around the square. Quarante boasts two bars (one having a restaurant), a bread shop, an exceptional butcher, a small supermarket, a chemist and a hairdresser. Who could ask for more?!
5 minutes drive from Quarante is Capestang, a larger town offering more amenities and a great Sunday street market. The surrounding countryside is beautiful, and there are many walks and trails that take you through the vineyards and garrugue, and up in to the hills. If you want to visit a city, Narbonne and Beziers are only 20 minutes drive away, and although the nearest beach is 40 minutes drive away, there are a few local rivers that offer wonderful freshwater swimming.
