What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Quaint and rich with historic character after restorations by the new owners, the interiors are filled with romantic details: wisteria wallpaper by Laura Ashley…
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set right on the Canal du Midi towpath, you are a five-minute walk from the station and minutes from central Béziers.
The rooms
Turret alcoves become private reading nooks, with cast-iron bathtubs and views looking straight out across the Canal du Midi.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A natural swimming basin sits in the garden, shaded by century-old magnolia trees and flowering oleander.
Restaurant
Salon Néo-Mauresque
Meals are served under a seven-meter painted dome, with seasonal dishes highlighting produce from the organic kitchen garden.
At the table
Breakfast is served among vintage mirrors and patterned tile floors, with fruit gathered from the orchard.
How it began

Local wine merchant Martien Jullian built this bourgeois folie in the late nineteenth century alongside Europe's oldest canal.
