The new ‘Riviera’<\/h3><\/div>

Southern France’s Mediterranean region of Occitania stretches from the snow-capped mountains of the Pyrenees in the west to just beyond Montpellier in the east, along the popular beaches of the Mediterranean. The area is rich in tradition, culture and fine seaside resorts.
You may enjoy cycling, hiking, canoeing or fishing in the rivers, horse riding, good food and locally produced wine, visiting historical sites and experiencing the imprint of history in the many medieval villages, towns and ancient Roman ruins, or just enjoying a cup of coffee in a French caf\u00e9 or lying on the beach. The choice is yours.

Occitania has played a central role in Europe for 1000s of years through Roman times followed by the Crusades and other famous historical periods whose monuments they left behind. This, coupled with one of the country’s largest wine production and recent rapid development and investment in the area, has made it the new, much cheaper, ‘Riviera’.
Its location also makes it the perfect starting point for a vacation with its miles of Mediterranean beaches and proximity to Spain, the Pyrenees, the Northern Massif, all the nature reserves, cities such as Toulouse, Narbonne, Carcassonne, B\u00e9ziers, Montpellier and Marseille. All within 2 hours drive from Beziers.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
