    What to do in Mirepeisset?

    Mirepeisset is a small medieval village which literally means 'the place to see fish' - due to the proximity of a lake, a river and the Canal du Midi (the latter two "cross" each other by means of the famous pont canal at the Porte Minervoise, a delightful 20 minute stroll from the house). There are two restaurants in Mirepeisset - La Taverna (centre village) and La Garenne (which overlooks the river).

    You can swim in the sparkling clean river (La Cesse) or its dammed lake (La Garenne) behind the house , and the sea and beach are within 30 minutes drive (with possibilities of kite- and windsurfing). The village itself has tennis courts and horse riding facilities for both children and adults, and since we're right beside the Canal du Midi, you can walk, cycle or cruise in the dappled shade of the platanes trees that line the paths and waterways (bicycles and boats for hire locally). Hiking (both gentle and rigorous) can be done along nearby gorges...
     
    We are also conveniently located for visits to Cathar strongholds and medieval towns as well as fashionable cities for shopping and sightseeing... (Narbonne and Beziers are within 20 minutes whilst Montpellier, Perpignan and Carcassonne are all about 1 hour by car.)

    All around Mirepeisset are many interesting foodie destinations many of which welcome visitors for guided tours, tastings and demonstrations. There are two old olive presses which are still active, and an award-winning, exquisitely located, goatscheese farm where you can see the goats being milked and cheeses being made. There are also a passionate beekeeper nearby where you can taste 12 completely unique honeys, a traditional artisan baker who might let you try your hand at making bread, and several Michelin-starred restaurants where one can still have a three-course lunch for under 30 euros... The area is scattered with many dedicated winemakers that still make their wines by hand, and Narbonne's covered foodmarket rivals the Boqueria in Barcelona.
     
    An hour's drive will get you to quaint fishing villages, the winery of the famous Noilly Prat Vermouth (indispensable for making a risotto or beurre blanc), the salt pans of Gruissan and the oysterbeds of Bouzigues... And in winter, the ski resorts are a mere one and a half hours away.

    On the artistic side there is also plenty to keep you busy: one of the world's most renowned patchwork museums can be found in Salleles, a village next to Mirepeisset, and there are impressive modern art galleries in Bages near Narbonne and in Lezignan... Narbonne's ultra modern theatre offers a daily changing list of events ranging from classic and experimental plays to concerts by artists from all around the world.

    How to get to La Souqueto?

    We are in the centre of the village Mirepeisset. Our telephone number is +33(0)468 407718
     
    If you come from direction Perpignan on the A9 take exit 38 (Narbonne Sud), then the N9 towards Beziers. At the second roundabout take a left (the D607 to Marcorignan). Continue all the way straight for about 12 kms, then turn right to Mirepeisset after Le Somail. In the centre of the village is a restaurant called La Taverna and there is a carpark on the righthand side of the restaurant. We are in the little alley right opposite the carpark entrance.
     
    If you take the A9 from Montpellier, take exit 36 (Castres, Mazamet). Turn right towards Castres, Mazamet, St. Pons then continue until the turn-off towards MONTADY (the 4th turn-off).

    If you come from Carcassonne, don't take the Autoroute - the D610 (the direct road from Carcassonne to Beziers, which becomes the D11 later on) is by far the easiest way. Setting off from Carcassonne Airport first follow the signs Centre Ville and continue in the direction of the Medieval city called La Cite. Do not enter The Cite but follow straight through towards Narbonne (a green sign). Then after a few kilometres look out for the sign for Trebes on the left which brings you onto the D610.
