Charming Townhouse with Terrace

Welcome to your idyllic home-away-from-home in this spacious and serene space. Our house is in St. Saturnin de Lucian, a picturesque medieval village in the heart of Languedoc wine country. It is a beautifully restored three-storey townhouse offering the perfect blend of traditional charm and cozy comfort. Nestled in the tranquil L’Herault region, and set against the backdrop of rolling hills and vineyards, it is the ideal spot to relax and unwind. The space Spread across three spacious levels, this four-bedroom house can comfortably accommodate families, groups of friends, or couples seeking a peaceful getaway in the sun-drenched South of France. The ground floor has two entrances: the main one at the side of the house and a second one opening into the large, eat-in kitchen. The stone walls and tiled floors keep the downstairs area cool in the summer, but it also has a wood-burner to stay cozy on winter nights. Off of the kitchen is a formal dining room, a utility room with a toilet and washing machine, and a vestibule where bicycles may be stored. A staircase to the first floor leads into a large living room with a sofa that opens out to a bed, a television, books, and games. Off of this main room is the master bedroom with a super-king size bed and a full, en-suite bathroom. A second double bedroom can be found off of the other side of the living room. Another staircase leads to the top floor. The top floor may be used as a self contained flat, with an open-planned living space, complete with kitchen and eating area. This level is also comprised of two further bedrooms, one with a trundle bed and a fold out small double bed, and the other with a lovely double four-poster bed and it’s own private terrace. There is also a bathroom with shower. For additional sleeping space, there is a clic-clac sofa in the living room and a single, fold out futon mattress in the smaller bedroom. The crowing jewel of the property is the large sunny rooftop terrace. It is a private haven where you can enjoy your morning coffee, sunbathe, have a late afternoon aperitif, or dine under the stars. With views of the medieval village, it’s the ideal place to unwind. St. Saturnin is a charming village known for its friendly locals, quiet streets, and rich, natural beauty. We have a local epicerie which always has a fresh supply of bread and croissants as well as good coffee! In the centre of town there is also a restaurant if you fancy a meal out, or just a cocktail or two. Close by are hiking and cycling trails which wind through the Garrigue hills and olive groves. Also nearby is the Lac du Salagou for water sports, picnicking, and swimming. Or if you prefer the beach, Cap d’Agde is only forty minutes by car. Other attractions are the Cirque de Navacelles and the Grotte de Clamouse. The historic town of Clermont L’Herault with its markets, restaurants, and shopping is just a ten minute drive, while the medieval villages of St. Guillem le Desert and Pezenas are also close by. Whether you just want to stay at home and relax, or take a day trip here and there, this home provides the perfect base. Guest access The entire house. Other things to note Please be aware of that this is a village house which may not be suitable for very young children. While there is a lot to do in the area, the third floor terrace means they would require supervision. Please also note that like most villages in the area, the centrepiece of the town is its lovely church - which also has lovely bells which ring on the hour and half hour. We find that we don’t notice them after a while, but that might not be true for you!
