“Villa Les Hauts”

Reviewed 5 Aug 2017

We had a fantastic fortnight at this Villa. The furnishings were fabulous and we especially loved the swimming pool, outdoor barbecue and outside dining terraces. When we did pull ourselves away from relaxing by the pool it was not far to venture to Leucate Plage where miles of beach and the clear sea were so inviting. Sigean Safari is well worth a visit too. Narbonne and Perpignan were just a little drive away so was Lagrasse. Would definitely recommend this Villa. Our family had a truly relaxing holiday.
