L’écrin de l’orb
Our House
Relax, take care of yourself… Fancy a holiday and well-being?
To enjoy the benefits of nature, fresh air and authentic and exceptional landscapes of the Languedoc, in one of the oldest cities on the edge of the Orb, nothing better than bed and breakfast with garden and terrace to rest and relax. Far from the hassle of everyday life, the speed and stress of the city, place to well-being and relaxation.
It is in a friendly setting that we welcome you.
We have arranged the exteriors with private terraces, shaded or not, housed in the Mediterranean garden or under the Romanesque arches of the courtyard. So you can languish in the sun or sip a drink around a spacious table while listening to the song of cicadas, the murmur of water streaming on the fountain of goddess Dewi Tara or by sniffing the sweet scents of southern plants. And if ever ants come in your legs, you can leave from home to make pleasant walks, cycling or mountain biking through vineyards and scrubland accompanied by fragrances of rosemary and thyme.
But that’s not all. We also thought of well-being and serenity: what better than a massage, a professional indoor spa, a meditation session to let go, reconnect with oneself and the present moment.
Enjoying an exceptional location on the banks of the Orb, the environment is conducive to water hiking (canoeing, kayaking, swimming in white water, …) and swimming.
We have the possibility to allocate you bicycles. The bicycles available will allow you to escape on the brand new greenway between the Réals and Saint-Chinian.
For dinner, we offer a “table d’hôtes” (by reservation) where you can enjoy delicious dishes cooked by Brigitte with local organic products and / or those from our vegetable garden.
A romantic getaway, a birthday, a wedding night, a nature break … the magic of the place operates.
More than a bed and breakfast,
it’s a unique experience that awaits you, a trip to the antipodes … In short, a stopover in relaxation!
In fine weather, do not miss the pleasure of having breakfast on the shaded terrace overlooking the Mediterranean scents.
Our strengths are the calm of the surrounding countryside and the serenity provided by the river. Our house brings a very good comfort in a warm and healthy atmosphere. Another strong point is our commitment to sustainable development.
