Villa Méditerranée is on an exclusive, private residential development in an elevated position on the edge of Fitou village, overlooking the Mediterranean sea and the Etang de Leucate with the maginificent Mount Canigou as the backdrop. It's just a 10 minute drive to the beaches. There are fantastic views from the villa, terrace and garden towards the Mediterranean, the etang, the hills and open countryside. Relax on your terrace with a cool drink, take in and enjoy this charming vista. The accommodation is ideal for for 6 people and is on one level; ideal therefore for those who prefer not to climb stairs. The villa comprises a large, light, open plan living space, with comfortable sofas, a dining area and a well-equipped kitchen. Sliding glass doors open onto a spacious terrace, which is partly shaded from the direct sun and partly open, making it ideal for all seasons. There is a large garden with mature Mediterranean planting and a very large sun deck. There are 3 bedrooms: one with a queen size double bed, the second with twin beds and the third also with twin beds. There are 2 bath/shower rooms, one with WC and an additional separate WC. The villa has a WiFi internet connection for use with your own laptop, tablet or smart phone. Th elevated well-kept and well-maintained residential development on which the villa is located is just a short walk from the ancient village of Fitou and its medieval castle. Villa Méditerranée offers fantastic accommodation for two couples holidaying together, or perhaps an extended family with children, parents and grandparents. Fitou is just 10-15 minutes walk away or a couple of minutes by car. It has a small Spar supermarket for bread and daily provisions, a tabac, a post office, a take-away pizza outlet, a bar, tennis courts, a boulodrome, and many wine caves. There are 4 great restaurants in the village and a medieval castle which has a museum, a gift shop, and a tapas bar.

The towns of Perpignan (25 mins), Narbonne (30 mins), Beziers (45 mins) and Carcassonne (50 mins) are all within easy reach by car. Perpignan has a real Catalan feel, visit the narrow lanes and unique shops, wide squares lined with palm trees and the Palace of the Kings of Majorca. Narbonne, once a Roman port, is a delightful town divided in two by the Canal de la Robine - it has a great indoor market in Les Halles. Beziers - visit the Cathedral St Nazaire, the long tree-lined promenades, cafes and great shopping. Carcassonne - a must see whilst you are here with its two rings of fortifications and 52 fairy-tale turrets.
Sport facilities: Golf at Saint Cyprien (27 holes), walking, cycling, rock climbing, bird watching, swimming, sailing, wind or kite-surfing, canoe/kayaking, ski-ing in the Winter at Font Romeu and Les Angles.
Sightseeing/days out: The area has a lot to offer - here are just a few suggestions: locally the Fortresse de Salses and the African Nature Reserve at Sigean, the very lovely Collioure, Ceret, Carcassonne, the Canal du Midi, the Cathar Castles, Villefranche de Conflent and the border with Spain is only 30 minutes drive away, so a trip to Roses, for example, is an easy possibility.
Wine: The AOC wine produding area of Fitou is very famous. The grapes are grown either along the edge of the Mediterranean coast or on the slopes of the Corbieres hills. The grape varieties are: Carignan and Black Grenache blended with a little Syrah or Mourvedre to give the wine a rich, smooth taste. Wander along the main street in Fitou and try some for yourselves.
