Our house is a traditional Languedoc village house. It is a large house, covering three floors. It provides ideal accommodation for a large family, or two families holidaying together.
On the ground floor at the front of the house there is a large garage for visitors' use.
Stairs lead from the front door to the first floor, which consists of the kitchen, containing a sink and double drainer, a big fridge-freezer, a self-cleaning gas cooker with five gas rings and an extra large oven, a dishwasher and several cupboards. An arch leads to the dining-room, where there is a dining table and chairs, a sideboard and a dresser. The kitchen has a window overlooking the road, and the dining-room has glazed doors leading to a balcony.

At the back of the house is the sitting-room which, because Servian is on a hill, is on ground floor level and has two sets of glazed doors leading out to the rear garden.

The sitting-room measures 24.7 m² and is comfortably furnished with sofa and armchairs, and there is a selection of books in French and English and some board games and puzzles.

The courtyard garden measures 53m², including the pool, and is very secluded. The pool is a raised-up pool of 14.5m² in area and 1.20m depth. There is a barbecue and table and chairs for outside dining and external lighting for the warm summer evenings. A wooden gate leads out onto the road behind the house. On this floor there is a bathroom with bath, handbasin and bidet, a separate w.c.

Washing-machine, ironing-board and iron can all be found on this floor.

A curving staircase leads to the next floor. There are two bedrooms at the front of the house. The first measures 19m² and has a double bed and a single bed, and the second measures 13m² and has twin beds.

Both bedrooms have windows overlooking the road. The next bedroom measures 10.6 m² and has twin beds and a window onto the terrace.

 

This terrace leads to two more bedrooms. One is a double-bedded room, measuring 13m², with an en-suite shower-room and w.c., and the other is a double-bedded room, measuring 9m², with a door to a second terrace. There is also another bathroom on this floor, with bath, handbasin and bidet, and a separate w.c. Both terraces overlook the rear garden..
There are tiled floors throughout the house, and the rooms are well-furnished and comfortable. Gas and electricity for both hot water and cooking is included in the rent. We can provide full equipment for a baby, if required - stair gates, cot, pushchair, highchair, playpen, baby bath, even a paddling pool. AlI bed Iinen can be provided on request at no extra cost. There is a telephone for in-coming and emergency calls.

The front entrance is in a street just off the Place du Marché, where you will find a variety of shops including bakers', a butcher's, a chemist's, a tabac and a couple of small grocery shops. There is also a bar-restaurant, just one of several bars and restaurants in the village and surrounding area, and, as the name implies, a regular market. Servian is a flourishing wine-producing village with an historic church and centre, and many narrow, twisting streets. There is, of course, a Cave Co-operative selling the locally produced wine, as well as several independent producers. There is a supermarket on the edge of the village. There are tennis courts and a large municipal swimming pool in the village and golf and horse-riding are available nearby. . The magnificent Lac du Salagou provides bathing, wind-surfing, fishing and excellent hilly walks. The village is surrounded by vineyards and beautiful open countryside and many good walks and picnics can be had in the area. The Mediterranean beaches are close by, ranging from a 7-mile long stretch of sand at Marseillan Plage to lively, cosmopolitan resorts like Cap d`Agde - where can also be found Europe`s largest naturist resort. The Herault River and thc Canal du Midi offer numerous opportunities for walking, swimming, fishing and boat trips. Pezenas, the nearest town, boasts a lively Saturday market, two supermarkets, banks, bars and restaurants.. In the other direction from Servian is Beziers, 20 minutes' drive away, a city with a turbulent past but now one of the jewels of the Midi..We think our house is ideally situated. We are 20 minutes from the Mediterranean, but far enough inland to avoid the crowds of July and August. We are surrounded by countryside and waterways offering every opportunity for a "get-away-from-it-all" holiday of peace and relaxation, whilst being within easy driving distance of lively towns and cities offering everything from street markets to classical concerts. You need never leave the village, or you could pack your holiday with endless activities and excursions. The choice is yours!
