Nestled in a tranquil medieval hamlet beneath the dramatic Escandorgue and overlooking the redruffe hills and the historic Château de Dio, this delightful stone cottage is a rare find for lovers of history and nature. The château itself, dating from the 11th century and built upon Visigothic foundations, sits as a striking landmark — its layers of history and noble associations (including the Fleury family and the Cardinal de Fleury) lending the area an unmistakable sense of provenance and charm. Set within the Parc Régional du HautLanguedoc, the property enjoys an exceptional natural setting: a dolomitic plateau with sweeping panoramas from the volcanic massif of the Escandorgue to the Monts d’Orb and the scenic valleys of Salagou. The area is a paradise for outdoor pursuits — waymarked walking routes, GR7 access for long hikes, excellent mountainbiking and horseback trails, with the picturesque Lac du Salagou and the cirque de Mourèze a short drive away. For those seeking wellness and relaxation, the nearby spa towns of LamaloulesBains and AvènelesBains add further appeal. The cottage is full of character, constructed of local stone and arranged over several levels to create an intimate, atmospheric interior. It offers two comfortable bedrooms, a wellequipped kitchen and a generous living area opening to charming outdoor spaces — perfect for alfresco dining, gardening and soaking up the views. Its compact scale and delightful setting make it an ideal holiday home or weekend retreat for those based in Béziers or Montpellier, yet it also presents strong yearround letting potential thanks to the region’s outdoor attractions and proximity to thermal towns. Practical details: convenient road access with Béziers approximately 35 minutes and Montpellier about 55 minutes. The property represents a unique opportunity to live in a closeknit rural community, surrounded by outstanding natural beauty and rich historical interest. For those seeking a poetic countryside lifestyle with history on the doorstep, this cottage is a charming and versatile proposition — equally suited to a peaceful permanent residence, a regular holiday escape or a lucrative holidaylet. Viewing is highly recommended.
