Gruissan is a unique site in the Mediterranean. It has everything you may need for the perfect holiday. It is very French and quite a lively family resort in the summer.
You can get up in the morning and check out how the pavement artist below on the quay is getting along with his commissions, then walk 100 yards to the bakery where they will be baking fresh bread every hour and buy your hot baguettes and warm croissants for your breakfast. Sit on the terrace in privacy and watch the world go by. Then you can just lounge around the private pool or wander along to the village.
• Village - a medieval village built in a circle around the castle; with its narrow streets and old houses, tiny shops and family run restaurants. It is classed as one of the most beautiful in France.
• Marina - one of the Mediterranean's major pleasure boat harbours. Admire the yachts belonging to rich and famous, learn to sail or take a trip to Port La Nouvelle or the bird sanctuary to see the pink flamingos.
• Beaches - twenty miles of soft white fine sand that gently shelves into the sea for safe bathing and lots of room for games or just getting away from it all.
• Swimming pool and a paddling pool - private to the residences.
• Etangs - salt water inland lagoons that are a sanctuary for birds, especially the pink flamingos
• Local gastronomy - family run restaurants with recipes handed down from generation to generation.
• Night life for the young at heart - pavement cafes with groups playing every style of music. Jazz at the chateau (our daughter will sing there in June). Dancing at the Casino or at one of the four clubs, a 5 or 10 minute walk from our properties.
• Mountains - stunning views of the Pyrenees, walking and mountain biking in the Clape mountains behind Gruissan.
• Shopping - try the delicacies of the local market in the old medieval village – just a five minute walk from your apartment. Wander around the port for clothes and jewellery or explore the potteries in the countryside. For the serious shopper there is nearby Narbonne, Carcassone and Montpelier. We love the indoor food market in Narbonne, where local farmers display their produce with pride in the lovely old building.
• Canal du Midi – we regularly hire a boat for the day, great fun on the water with a picnic or stop at one of the many restaurants along the way for lunch.
• Little yellow train – one of our favourite days out with spectacular views of the Pyrenees as you ascend to the ski resorts (great in summer or winter).
• Cathar castles – the people in this area were known as the Cathars and broke away from the Roman Catholic Church in the 10th Century. They appointed a kind man in each village to look after the sick and work their crops instead of a priest. The pope was not too impressed and sent Simon de Montfort to sort them out (the infamous Spanish inquisition). Consequently, the Cathars built themselves castles spectacularly perched on the top of hills and mountains for their defence.
