Slightly further afield, although very much worth the 50 min drive, is the Auberge du Vieux Puits. The restaurant, run by Gilles Goujou, has three Michelin stars and has been described as displaying some of the most sophisticated cuisine in France

For a truly French gastronomic experience, do also try the Château de Cavanac, a personal favourite of ours that serves great food and wine in reconverted horse stables.

With its 700 000 acres of vineyards, the Languedoc-Roussillon is the largest wine-producing region in the world and was the first French region to be introduced to vine-growing and wine-making by the Romans. The wild Corbières area that surrounds the property is home to some outstandingly good-value quality wines, many of which are now organically produced by a new generation of young and energetic winemakers. This is red wine country, although interesting whites and rosés are now also beginning to emerge (including local varieties of Picpoul, Terret, and Clairette), and the region is also home to the first sparkling wines, the Blanquette and Crémant de Limoux, precursors to Champagne.

Arts & Culture

During the summer months the region truly becomes alive with cultural events, ranging from local village festivals and fairs to music concerts. The Festival de Carcassonne which takes place in July is unique and extraordinary in its energy and diversity, and in a decade has established itself as one of the ten biggest festivals in France. The setting is unique and unrivalled—the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Medieval City. Around 100 performances are offered throughout the month, including theatre, opera, ballet, and music, attracting the likes of Elton John, Supertramp, and Sting. We also highly recommend that you do not miss out on the firework display on the 14th of July.
