Poussines
Description of accommodation and area: The property is ideally located for visiting the glories of the Languedoc, from Cathar castles to Cistercian abbeys, outstanding vineyards to seemingly endless beaches. It has excellent facilities, a private garden with a large swimming pool and ample parking. Pepieux is a charming village with a superette, bakery/boulangerie, post office, pharmacy, computer/internet shop, two hairdressers and a bar/restaurant. Wines can be purchased from three renowned local wineries (organic producers, Hachette Guide) and from the cave-cooperative.
The Cosmofil experience: Come and enjoy being part of French village life, slow at times, but always amusing; plenty of local markets and fabulous food and wine .
