There is a double USB charging point close to the bed as well as a double English socket, so no need to bring an adaptor.

Parking
Ample parking to the rear of the Gite.
The Gite is all electric and the main house has an array of photovoltaic cells generating electricity. We generate a lot more than we use each year.

Patio - is a 16 sq. M decking which features a 6ft diameter wine barrel plunge pool overlooking the Aude valley with views of the Montagne Noire and beyond. Adjacent are numerous olive trees. Lie back on the sun loungers or cool off in the plunge pool and drink a glass of local Rosé (€8 for 5 Litres!!!) or two!
Olive Trees
The Gite has a number of olive trees close by that are actively used in producing my own olives for eating and oil.
Village
Just a short 2 minute walk away!!
Walking
Down the drive, up the small hill and you can walk all day as far as you want through the vineyards and along the Canal du Midi. Take a picnic or stop at numerous restaurants along the canal.
Cycling
There are ample cycle routes, the Canal du Midi towpath being a very obvious one. If you prefer mountain biking then we are not short of them either. Have a look at Mellow Vélos for Cycle Hire.
Plunge Pool - Cool off in the plunge pool, designed to resemble a large wine barrel. From the pool you have excellent views overlooking the village of Ginestas and its clock tower, to the Montagne Noir and foothills of the Cevennes in the distance and to our small olive grove.
Barbeque - Outdoor charcoal barbeque for cooking local delicacies e.g. duck breasts or perhaps a range of local seafood.
