Jane Neal and her friend Lits welcome you to her home, a Maison d'Hotes located in the Orb Valley of the Haut Languedoc Natural Park; the unspoilt South of France, with its sunny Mediterranean climate.

We offer bed and breakfast (maison d'hotes) and a home cooked evening meal (tables d'hotes) on reservation. We are passionate about our food and use only fresh local ingredients in the preparation of our meals which are served 'en famille' on the old stone terrace.

The house is a 19th century gentleman's residence. It has 5 very comfortable ensuite bedrooms and is adjoined by a beautiful garden shaded by a 200 year old Cedar.

It is an ideal location from which to explore the traditional towns and villages full of history, the magic and the mystique of the Cathars and the Knight Templars. There are wonderful walks and footpaths all around the house from which to explore the countryside, and hills full of wild flowers herbs and mushrooms...we can even pack you a picnic!

The Mediterranean is only a 35 minute scenic drive away with its miles of natural sandy beaches. Swimming is also possible nearby in Lake Salagou or 'en plein air' at Lunas or Bedarieux. We also have many suggestions for excursions by car or train to interesting sites and destinations a short distance away, or of course, you could just relax and read in our garden!

Surrounded by vines in a region with an abundance of wonderful wines to discover and taste, we offer guided tours and tastings either at the table or in the vignerons' cave.

We assure you of a swarm, friendly welcome and a relaxing peaceful holiday.
