References from guests follow, and there is a visitors' book in the apartment with comments from other happy guests. Brenda Spargo "We had a super holiday in the apartment at Gruissan. It is so lovely and light and airy and so tastefully decorated. Easily the best apartment we have rented for our holiday and so well equipped. It is so relaxing to be able to sit on the balcony, or go upstairs by the window and just watch the boats coming and going and generally observe life round the marina. The more we explored Gruissan and the surrounding area, the more we liked it. There was the chance to hire bikes and ride on the cycle path to Narbonne Plage and beyond, well away from the traffic (which we did); there was horse riding, which we intended to do but didn't get round to it, as we were too busy enjoying other things. The area is good for bird watching, we saw flamingoes which are common to the area, we watched a marsh harrier hunting over the lagoons, and we saw sacred ibis which I believe are not common to the area. The beautiful beaches all along the coastline, miles of golden sand to be enjoyed. We found a lovely place to sit and watch the sun as it sets beside the ruined castle of Gruissan - just walk along the marina, past the footbridge under the road bridge and sit there on the wall where the rowing boats are moored - perfect! If you enjoy sightseeing, we found Narbonne and Beziers paritcularly interesting, with the narrow streets and both with magnificent cathedrals. Carcassonne was about an hour and a half away (we took the scenic route through the miles of vineyards) and although we had been there before, we were still in awe as we approached the ramparts and towers. We watched the boats on the Canal du Midi at several different points; Narbonne, Beziers and Carcassonne specially interesting to see the holidaymakers manoevering their boats through the locks. As we left on Saturday morning, we took a final visit to the market in the town square of Gruissan. The spice stall and the rotisserie with the chickens cooking, the fruit, vegetables and cheeses gave off an aroma that made the taste buds jump to attention. It was lovely to just stand and take stock in this little crowded, bustling market. This is my final lasting image of Gruissan. We will return, sometime." Peter and Jan Stewart "Had a wonderful week in Gruissan - excellent apartment (especially upstairs) with superb views. We ate out every night and didn't use the cooker or BBQ, went to the beach every day and spent hours roaming around the harbour. Have taken photographs to give to friends at work. David & Jackie Brelsford "We are just writing to let you know how much we enjoyed our holiday at Gruissan. Your apartment was very well decorated and comfortable, with easy access to all amenities. We spent a lot of time up on the roof terrace with a bottle of wine just watching the boats coming in and out of the harbour. We have been going to France for the last 15 years and this apartment has been the best accommodation that we have had. There are other
comments, these are not to hand but in the visitors' book
left in the apartment. International airports to Gruissan are at Montpellier, (British Airways) Carcassonne and Perpignan (Ryanair) and Toulouse (Easyjet). Rail stations to Narbonne are near the airport - the apartment is 15 minutes by car from Narbonne station and taxis are available outside. Road connection
from all airports are available with the information
pack. To book this property please contact the owners:

of
South West France on the Mediterranean coast. The region,
rich in culture and history, was one of the first Roman
colonies. This part of France has great beauty, with its
mountains, the Pyrenees, vineyards and beautiful sandy
beaches all along the coastline with miles of golden
sands. Good wines and food are synonymous with this
unique region, and the Cave de Gruissan is just over the
road from our apartment and offers scintillating wines
from the area at very reasonable prices. The charming
town of Narbonne with the Canal du Midi running through
it is approximately 12 km away from Gruissan. Narbonne
with its narrow streets has excellent shopping and
markets take place every Thursday and Sunday morning.
There is a cathedral in the town square with shops and
cafés around, really pleasant to sit and watch the world
go by. There are very good rail and road connections from
Narbonne to the major cities in France and Spain. If you
enjoy sightseeing, as well as Narbonne, an hour's drive
away is the town of Beziers and also the medieval town of
Carcassonne with its historic castle and 
there is:
