Oasis of well-being

For the 6th time, we had a vacation in this beautiful holiday home and it felt like coming home. But it was different this time, Jean-Pierre was missing. We missed him. The house: very well equipped, 2 bathrooms = luxury, great kitchen facilities - new stove and everything else was perfect. The location is ideal, everything can be reached: beach, restaurants, nature, shops. Not far away is a well-stocked SPAR supermarket with exceptionally good bread. Narbonne-Plage is very conveniently located for excursions: there is a market every day in St. Pierre. In Narbonne, the bus stop is just around the corner and you can ride for 1 euro. Gruissan is a beautiful old town. But the main attraction is the kilometer-long sandy beach. There is a "non-smoking beach" and a "dog beach". Everyone can find their own spot here. Narbonne-Plage and the holiday home "La Mer" are always worth a trip. We are looking forward to seeing you again next year. Alex and Gisa.

Nice house, highly recommended

We felt very comfortable in the Weyand house. The kitchen is a dream! Everything you need to cook delicious dishes in southern France is there. The house was very clean. The area is quiet, with nice neighbors. The beach is just a few steps away. And the 2 terraces are very pleasant (unfortunately, there were a lot of mosquitoes in June, but the Weyand family is not responsible for that). We can definitely recommend the house, although not for seniors or families with small children due to the steep stairs (in our opinion). Many thanks to Mrs. Weyand, who always responded to our questions promptly, in detail, and in a friendly manner.

Travel guide Southern France

arrival

How do I come to Southern France?

Off to the south of France


Southern France - the beautiful land of longing between the Bay of Biscay and the Gulf of Lyon, these are the unforgettable cities of Bordeaux and Toulouse in the west and the coast between Perpignan and Nice on the Mediterranean coast. This is Brittany and Provence. The journey to your holiday apartment or holiday home in southern France is most convenient and fastest by plane or by car via Alsace. There are numerous daily flights from all over Germany to the south of France. Major airports are located in Nice and Marseille, Bordeaux, Lyon, Montpellier, and Nantes. There are car rental agencies at all airports. Booking in advance via the internet is recommended to save time and cost. Of course, you can also get to southern France by train in an environmentally friendly way. A train journey from Munich takes between 15 and 20 hours. By car, you can reach your impressive accommodation in southern France in about 12 hours from southern Germany. Both car and train journeys to southern France lead through scenically attractive regions where stopovers are recommended. Book a huge accommodation with a pool directly on the fascinating sea or one of the cozy villas full of luxury in one of the most beautiful parts of France and enjoy the unique beaches and nature during your journey.

weather & climate

How is the weather in South France?

Le Midi - Region of the Midday Sun


Wherever you rent your holiday home or affordable holiday apartment in southern France, the climate is perfect for switching off from everyday life in Germany and enjoying the southern French way of life. Le Midi de la France or simply le Midi, as the French call the region, translates as "midday" and refers to the position of the sun in the south. The southwest, the region of the Bay of Biscay around the city of Bordeaux, is somewhat cooler than the Mediterranean coast. On the Côte d’Azur with the capital Marseille and the jet-set city of Nice, it is Mediterranean warm with mild (but windy) winter months and hot summers. On 300 sunny days, temperatures climb to around 30 °C in summer and 15 to 20 °C in winter. The Atlantic coast is about 5 °C cooler. The bathing temperatures are 23 °C during the season and 18 °C in the Atlantic – perfect for a beach holiday in southern France. If you want to spend your holiday with your dog in southern France, spring and autumn are the best travel times. The excellent temperatures are pleasantly warm to take extensive day trips with your four-legged family members. The Pyrenees between France and Spain, with their peaks over 3,000 meters high, offer excellent hiking opportunities. In the small state of Andorra, surrounded by mountains, there is a high-altitude climate.

food & beverages

Where can I eat out in South France?

Eating and drinking like a god in France


The typical kitchens of the south are as diverse as the landscapes. The Mediterranean and the Atlantic shape the people and their cuisine. On the French Atlantic coast in Brittany and Normandy, fish and seafood dominate. Further inland, it becomes meatier and heartier. Try bean stew from the Périgord, duck dishes, or entrecôte with porcini mushrooms from the Bordelais. A fine selection of delicious cheese varieties, some of which melt so tenderly that they can be eaten with a spoon, is a must-have for the end of a good meal. Provence scores with a fresh herb cuisine. The fields of blooming lavender are famous. Basil, sage, rosemary, mint, bay leaves, and wild fennel go into the pot. We are already in the olive region in Provence. Cold-pressed olive oil is a must. Try lamb specialties with fresh vegetables. Fewer and fewer fish are landed from the overfished Mediterranean. Just enough for a classic bouillabaisse, a traditional fish soup from Marseille. In return, the region scores with outstanding meat dishes such as bœuf gardian (bull stew from the Camargue) or pieds-paquets (stuffed lamb tripe in wine sauce). Vegetarians can enjoy a soupe au pistou, a vegetable soup made from white beans. All these delicacies are accompanied by wine in southern France, whether on the fascinating coast or in Provence. Bordeaux is the classic from the west, probably the most famous red wine in France if not the most famous wine in the world. The west scores with fresh and fruity red wines from Provence and Languedoc and stronger ones from the Côtes du Rhône. Digest by hiking through idyllic nature, for example in Burgundy, or taking a walk in the area. Explore the region and visit the attractions of the country.

sights & activities

What do you need to experience in South France?

Between two seas - From west to east through the Midi


Your affordable and cozy holiday apartment or holiday home with a pool on the beach rented privately in southern France is located in a breathtakingly beautiful and diverse cultural landscape - whether in Brittany and Normandy in the west or Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence in the east. Start your tour of southern France at Pilat on the Atlantic coast with Europe's largest sand dune. It stretches over three kilometers and is over 100 meters high. Further inland, the famous vineyards of Bordeaux unfold. A fine sandy beach stretches along the Atlantic coast to the Spanish border. On the way to the west, you will arrive in the ville rose - the "pink city" of Toulouse. The name comes from the many red-brick sights. The Gothic Cathedral of Saint Etienne dates back to the 13th century, the Capitole, Toulouse City Hall, to the 16th century. The Canal du Midi between Toulouse and Séte connects the city with the sea. The canal is on the UNESCO World Heritage list.

On the Mediterranean coast, continue to Carcassonne, Montpellier, Nîmes, and Avignon, the former papal city. The old town of Carcassonne, the Cité of Carcassonne with its medieval fortress, is one of the most visited places in all of France. The size and condition of the double wall ring, towers, and houses is unique in Europe. The entire old town is part of the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage. Nîmes fascinates with its many buildings from the Roman period. The 1st-century Pont du Gard aqueduct is 250 meters long and 50 meters high. The amphitheater of Nîmes also dates from this period and once held 25,000 spectators. Popes and antipopes resided in Avignon from 1309 to 1417 in the papal palace. The old town within the city walls is one of the highlights in southern France. In addition to the papal palace, the famous bridge of Avignon, the Pont Saint-Bénézet from the 12th century, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. France is also known for its many magnificent cathedrals.

Follow the excellent coast further to Marseille in the Golfe du Lion. Numerous museums and a vibrant gastronomy scene attract visitors to one of the largest port cities on the Mediterranean. As previously mentioned, bouillabaisse originates from Marseille. In the far east of southern France are the cities of Cannes and Nice.
