Luxurious Medieval Maison de Maitre
This sensitively restored house dates back to the medieval period, but still provides a luxurious degree of modern comfort – full central heating and a broadband internet connection – for example. High ceilings with exposed wooden beams give a feeling of airiness and luminosity. The large roof terrace affords views down narrow winding streets and over rooftops to the church and Orgues in one direction, and to the Canigou, sacred mountain of the Catalans, in the other. Four large and highly individual bedrooms each have en suite bath or shower-room facilities. One doubles as a self-contained studio and may particularly suit early risers: there is a kitchenette for an early brew of coffee, and a side door to slip out and buy the morning’s croissants from one of the five boulangeries nearby.

This is held three times a week and is two minutes walk away. The winding wooden staircase leads to a spacious sitting room and large roof terrace.

There are thermal baths to pamper aching muscles, streams to canyon down and pools in which to swim among the trout. They flow down through vineyards producing fine wines and branch out into an intricate lacework of irrigation canals which give life to the orchards, olive groves and vegetables grown here. These form the basis of a delicious cuisine. A sweep of coast, from the Cathar castle-studded Corbieres, past the etangs filled with oysters and flamingos, sandy beaches and the rocky end of the Pyr
