This evening, we drive to a nearby village to enjoy a delicious meal in a charming setting.

Recharge over a coffee at a typical French café on the Allee Paul Riquet, a lovely spot to take in the local atmosphere. After our morning ride, we’ll head back to the chateau to freshen up before heading back into town for lunch at a special café with a menu created daily from the freshest local produce.

After lunch, we’ll explore more of Beziers’ historic sites, immersing ourselves in the rich history of the town.

Lunch is a delicious gourmet picnic overlooking the vineyards before taking a walk up to the ruins of a 12th century chateau and wine tasting from a vineyard set somewhat uniquely in a meteorite crater, before returning to your luxury Chateau.

In the evening, we dine in a nearby village. This is a great opportunity to indulge in delicious local cuisine and learn more about the culture of the area.

One of our personal favourites. Picture postcard medieval stone villages, picturesque vineyards, stone bridges crossing flowing rivers and vast wild forrest. It really is a feast for the eyes and lunch is a feast for your tastebuds!

Today’s lunch is a true gastronomic treat and you can totally relax with a chilled glass of rosé as we will be jumping in the van for the transfer home.

This evening we take a short drive to the Mediterranean and our dinner spot overlooking the River Herault. After dinner take a stroll along the beach front and perhaps finish with a nice cold gelato.

On today’s ride on VeloRoo’s South of France cycling tour, we take you through two different wine-growing regions (or Appellations), known for their unique terroirs and wine styles, and a wonderful climb, winding up through fragrant Mediterranean garrigue scrub.

The climb is rewarded with a spectacular view across the vineyards and gorges to the Mediterranean. On a clear day, you can even see the Pyrénées from the top.

And there’s the chance to absorb the atmosphere of the local market before the final part of the ride and lunch in a village cafe on the way back to your Chateau.

An afternoon to chill by the pool before we take a drive and walk to one of our favourite hidden spots for sunset aperos and then pizzas poolside back at the Chateau.
