Holiday bliss in Roujan
The house did not disappoint, the photos of the property were very nice and I had been worried that the photos were too good! But the truth of the matter is that the house is warm and inviting, it is tastefully decorated and well appointed with all the amenities we needed, the courtyard garden is inviting and the pool a lovely spot to play with children safely and to cool down if the weather is hot.
The upper rooms of the house are light and airy and the air-conditioning very effective on warm nights. The first floor which is bisected by a high tiled hallway is comprised of the living room / study which is again air-conditioned. On the other side of the hall is the large kitchen and breakfast room. All though we spent a lot of time in the kitchen, most of our time was spent on the patio terrace, where we sunbathed, ate and spent the warm evenings. We only spent one evening in the living room, when an awesome storm crashed through the town, but it was a nice place to play games.
The downstairs bedrooms are cooler, but pleasantly so and the large open space was a perfect place to do yoga and exercise in the mornings. A table tennis table was also great fun.
The village has it all, good food and great entertainment at the Grand Cafe in the main street, fantastic pizza at Pitchou Pizza - run by the hardest working and friendliest owner. The village bar further down the street might be little 'spit and sawdust' for some but little bars like that are a reminder of the close French community. The boulangerie patisserie on the way into town opposite the Super U market called 'Le Fournil de Benjamin' produces divine pastries, breads and cakes, it's well worth jumping on a bike and heading down to it for breakfast supplies.
A wonderful holiday and a beautiful location, which I hope to return to again.
