Located in the wine-village of Autignac, Maison Portalet is a sensitively restored Languedoc home that blends traditional character with the comforts of contemporary living and its own private pool.

The interiors are thoughtfully arranged with four attractive bedrooms and four bathrooms (three en suite) spread across the main house and a garden annexe. Downstairs, the open-plan living-dining space and kitchen features high ceilings and tall glass windows opening to an enclosed courtyard for lazy afternoons beside the pool and leisurely barbecues on the al-fresco dining terrace.

Maison Portalet sits at the centre of Autignac, a wine-producing village surrounded by rolling vineyards and rugged Hérault countryside. Just a two-minute stroll brings you to the essentials of French village life: a boulangerie for morning croissants, a café-bar and a small handful of local shops. Known for its rich winemaking heritage, Autignac is one of seven villages within the celebrated Faugères appellation, offering ample opportunity for tastings and cellar-door discoveries.

The house is also ideally positioned for exploring the best of the Languedoc region of southern France. The historic town of Béziers is only 20km away, while the sparkling Mediterranean coast lies just 40 minutes from your door. Other wonderful trips out include canoeing along the Orb River, cycle rides beside the Canal du Midi and the Saturday morning market in Pézenas.

Whether you’re sipping local wine on the terrace, setting out for a day among the vines or simply enjoying the rhythms of village life, Maison Portalet is a fantastic base for experiencing good food, fine wine and glorious scenery.
