Beziers

If you want to rent a holiday villa near Beziers, the town is about an hour north of Villa La Cascade and the next town north of Narbonne. It’s a town steeped in the history of the Cathars and overlooks the River Orb. The Canal du Midi, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, passes through Beziers.

For those staying in our Languedoc villa, Beziers makes an interesting day trip. The old town is a pretty and worthwhile destination dominated by the Romanesque Cathédrale St-Nazaire. Beziers is famous for its Feria or bullfighting and the festival takes place in mid-August and last for 4 days and brings a little bit of Spain to the Languedoc - meanwhile Beziers flower market is held in the allees Paul Riquet every Friday morning
