We have many properties for sale in the Hérault department – in traditional villages among the vineyards between the Mediterranean coast and the spectacular Languedoc National Park. The benefits of the Hérault area are numerous; it is the sunniest in France, with approximately 300 days of sun per year, and there are not the strong winds you may find in other parts of the Languedoc, now called Occitanie. Our properties are mostly located in the areas of Béziers, Montpellier, Clermont-l'Hérault, Gignac, Lamalou, Pézenas, the Orb Valley and the Saint Chinian area. Within a 13-mile radius, you can find beaches, the Upper Languedoc National Park with mountains, cliffs, waterfalls, rivers, a lake, registered historic villages, traditional markets and many more curiosities to be seen and enjoyed by all.
Hérault (number 34) is part of the
region of Occitanie and is surrounded by the departments of Aude, Tarn, Aveyron, Gard, and the Mediterranean Sea (Gulf of Lion) on the south. The department is very geographically diverse, with beaches in the south, the Cévennes mountains in the north, and agricultural land in between.
From the shores of the Mediterranean to the majestic peaks of the Upper Languedoc National Park, Hérault's natural playground beckons. Traverse hidden trails with ancient oaks, scale dramatic cliffs overlooking hidden waterfalls, or paddle local rivers lined with charming villages. Dive into the crystal-clear waters of Lake du Salagou, a turquoise jewel nestled amidst volcanic rock, or surf the azure waves of the Mediterranean.
Hérault's allure extends beyond breathtaking landscapes. Vibrant towns like Montpellier, Béziers,
Pézenas, and Clermont-l'Hérault invite you to wander cobbled streets and enjoy the bounty of their bustling markets. Immerse yourself in the region's rich past, from the Roman aqueduct of Pont du Gard to the fortified walls of
Carcassonne. Indulge in the art of living the good life
à la française – clinking glasses with locals over a glass of locally-produced wine, sampling fresh oysters amidst harbour chatter, and savouring the aroma of lavender wafting through sun-drenched fields.
Imagine waking up to the song of birds, surrounded by rolling vineyards and the aroma of fresh bread. At My-French-House.com, we offer a collection of charming properties in the heart of this idyllic and warm region. Picture yourself lounging by your own swimming pool, grilling local delights on a terrace, or sipping coffee with loved ones on a balcony overlooking vineyards.
