La Belle Ancienne (Ancient Beauty) is nestled in the quaint hamlet of Assignan (936 AD),
built on a hill near St Chinian, in the heart of a region steeped in history, as well as wine: the Languedoc.
It can comfortably accomodate four adults, on three floors of rustic French decor,
with the addition of a new roof terrace, overlooking the vineyards and rolling hills beyond.
Exposed stonework, large wooden beams, a classic winding staircase from cellar to roof terrace,
fireplace, marble sink and original tiles preserve the antiquity and charm of its medieval character.
You gain entrance on Carriera Granda, in the oldest part of the village.
Come on in if you'd like more information!
