Large Village House Fully Renovated 20 mins from the sea

Valros  is a pretty village surrounded by miles of vineyards (wonderful walking,  jogging, and biking country). The main square is shaded by ancient plane trees  and there is an excellent general store providing everyday needs. The village  also has a bar, a unisex hairdresser, a tabac, an hotel with restaurant, a  boulangerie and loads of antique shops.  Nearby  Pezenas was once the centre of French culture when the King came south and  Molière played in one of the theatres. It is now full of antique shops,  bookstores, restaurants, shops, as well as a large Saturday market, and  supermarkets.

In another  direction - the Mediterranean is 20 minutes  away, with the fishing villages of Sete, Marseillan, and Meze, providing a host  of fish restaurants. The beaches are clean, sandy and stretch for miles.  Some are developed seaside towns, others  offer vast stretches of uncrowded and undeveloped beaches.

The close  access to the autoroute provides access to sights further afield such as  Spain with the Dali museum in  Figueras, or the cosmopolitan delights of museums, shops and nightlife at  Montpellier.
