For buying and selling property in Montblanc
The village of Montblanc lies among the vineyards of the Hérault department, in the sunny central south of France. Surrounded not just by vineyards, but also close to the Mediterranean coast and steeped in history, Montblanc exudes a powerful southern charm and typical Languedocien character.
Montblanc is a particularly beautiful village, well cared for and a source of great pride to its inhabitants. The village dates back to early mediaeval times, celebrating its past with a mediaeval festival week being held at the end of April each year. Its ancient houses and narrow, twisting streets not only bear witness to its history, but also add enormously to its authentic charm, as does Montblanc's lovely 12th century church.
The population of 2,136 has demanded that the village provides well for its community, and you will find excellent small town amenities within the boundaries and even more just a short hop away in Pezenas. In Montblanc itself you can find a variety of shops, restaurants, bars and services, with small general markets being held on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Meanwhile the wine trade is alive and thriving in Montblanc. The village wine co operative is excellent, producing and selling local wines.
There can hardly be a better place in France to enjoy the immediate surroundings than Montblanc. The Mediterranean Sea is almost on the doorstep, with a vast choice of lovely seaside resorts, beaches, salt lagoons and quaint fishing villages to visit, while the nearby mountains and gorges offer the potential for challenging yourself to try adventure sports such as white water rafting or rock climbing.
Characterful villages are hidden around every corner, many of them carrying the scars of a battle worn past, as this is a Cathar region, the scene of the terrible battles between the Cathars and the Catholic Church in the Middle Ages. The great cities of the Languedoc; Carcassonne, Béziers, Perpignan and Montpellier all have beauty, heritage, history and the modern pleasures of shopping and dining in abundance. Meanwhile simpler and quieter ways to spend your days around Montblanc might include walking in the pretty countryside, visiting vineyards, viewing the area on horseback or simply sitting in the sun, sipping a glass of locally produced wine.
