Cocoon yourself by immersing yourself in the exceptional landscapes of Fenouillèdes. At the top of a wooded hill. Exceptional view. Calm and full nature. In a small mountain region enjoying a Mediterranean climate with practically constant sunshine. Completely renovated, this gîte was the old village cafe. Its decor is inspired by the Catalan firebird: the hoopoe.
You will have the entire accommodation in complete independence. In a large bright room opening onto the balcony-terrace by two large windows, there is a comfortable kitchen area as well as a lounge area with TV. Nice cozy room with two twin beds. Brand new bathroom with walk-in shower and separate WC. Ideal for a couple. Not overlooked. Comfort. WIRELESS. Baby equipment. Possibility of an extra bed. Pets welcome. The sea is not far!
The farmhouse is very old and was built on a rock, on a promontory. We see the rock outcrop in the lower bedroom. The church next to the gîte dates from the 12th century. Since Felluns is away from the road and has only 50 inhabitants, it is safe to walk around and let the children play freely. A small playground adjoins the gîte. We also have access to a bowling green at the top of the village. There are no shops, but a bakery-grocery van passes almost every day. In the neighboring town (St Paul de Fenouillet) there is a supermarket, a petrol station, banks, etc.
Felluns in an authentic and wild Mediterranean setting, the Fenouillèdes, one of the 7 regions of the Eastern Pyrenees. At the crossroads of very different landscapes between sea, mountains and Cathar country. One hour from the gîte, you can discover:
- in the North the Corbières with the Gorges de Galamus, the Pays Cathare and its castles: Peyrepertuse, Quéribus...
- to the east, the Roussillon plain, the sea and its beaches: Toreilles, Canet en Roussillon and further Collioure ...
- in the South the Canigou massif, the Conflent, its medieval villages and its Romanesque abbeys.
- in the West, the very rural Haute Vallée de l'Aude with the Bugarach massif, Rennes-le-château ...
Starting from the gîte on foot, you can discover the vineyard, dolmens, a Roman aqueduct, Caramany lake, an orientation table, magnificent panoramas and a swimming area in the secret river (which will be revealed to you at the gîte). .. Many hikes are possible all around Felluns and throughout the region. A few minutes by car from the cottage, you can practice canyoning, rafting, climbing and discover the many swimming areas in the area (natural pool, lake, river, gorges, fun pool ...)
Another of the unknown riches of this incredibly beautiful country: its wine: Côtes du Roussillon, Maury, Rivesaltes ... The opportunity to taste these wines with a strong personality.
