About this property
Sunny Winemaker's House in Canal du Midi Village with Pool near Beaches
Located in the beautiful, canal-side town of Poilhes in the Languedoc Region in the South of France, La Fontaine has been tastefully renovated from a former winemaker's estate to a contemporary holiday home, retaining its original charm but now with the advantage of modern conveniences. Featuring a private swimming pool (open from late April to beginning October), three bedrooms each with an en-suite bathroom, a spacious sun-soaked courtyard, and a flower-lined entrance, La Fontaine is perfect for a flexcation/staycation or as a home base to discover the extraordinary Languedoc Roussillon region. La Fontaine is perfectly situated as the courtyard gets much sunlight throughout the day, yet because of the stone structure, the house does not overheat and stays cool during the warm summer period. The enclosed courtyard walls offer protection from the wind. Free street parking is available nearby/a minute’s walk from the house.
Surrounded by vineyards, the picturesque village of Poilhes with its 500 inhabitants, is just the place to spend a calm, relaxing holiday. The Canal du Midi, which flows through the center of Poilhes, is located steps away from La Fontaine. This beautiful area is just 20 minutes from the long, sandy beaches of the Mediterranean and 30 minutes from the mountainous Haut Languedoc national park. There is a small shop and three restaurants in the town for your convenience.
(For stays of 14 days or longer, we provide a discount- please message us.)
