Hello Anja and Wim,
We have arrived at the house and it exceeds our expectations! Very beautiful and fantastic view.
(We received this enthusiastic response this season and would like to mention it.)

Beaufort has 320 Sundays a year!

Location:
Beaufort is 2 kilometers away from the lively Olonzac. In Olonzac it is a market every Tuesday. There is a large supermarket, cozy terraces and restaurants.

Beaches:
The beautiful and quiet sandy beaches of Narbonne and Beziers are 30-45 min away and are ideal for children of all ages. You can surf, kite surf and take sailing lessons.

Shop:
In the cities of Narbonne and Beziers there are plenty of shopping opportunities.

Culture:
Special is the Cité of Carcassonne, a medieval fortified city that was completely restored in the 19th century and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Minervois is a wine-growing region on the border of the departments of Aude and Hérault. The name is derived from Minerve, one of the most beautiful places in France.
On the Canal du Midi are many nice villages such as Homps, 5 km from Beaufort or Le Somail at 19 km. From these cozy harbors you can take a boat trip on the canal. In Le Somail you will find a large bookstore Le Trouve Tout du Livre, a paradise for literature lovers!

For the sporty holidaymaker, there are plenty of opportunities in the area: walking, running, cycling, mountain biking and canoeing.
Next to the village of Homps is the Lac de Jouarres, a large recreational lake where you can fish, swim and enjoy water sports (supervised in July and August).
