La Belle Ancienne

Holiday house in the Languedoc, Southern France

Translation to NEDERLANDS courtesy of Peter van Velzen

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!

** ADDENDUM **

La Belle Ancienne has recently been renovated and repainted with reconditioning to the bedrooms,
including a sitting room area with flat screen TV, DVD player and high quality sound system.

A large (pyramid) woodstove has been installed in the dining room, creating a cozy atmosphere.
High speed internet (wi-fi) has also been added for guests.

Another beautiful house - Carriera Granda - lies directly across the road and has
been added to this site as alternative accommodation or to provide addtional space for larger parties.
This house is available from June to mid October.
It hosts two terraces, two baths and is architecturally similar to La Belle Ancienne.

I have three slideshows I would like to share with you if you're into audio/visual:
