It is close to a number of larger villages & small towns as well as numerous vineyards - many of which welcome visitors . Guests are very welcome to come & check out our own vineyard at Mas de Puech which is just over a mile away . Here you can do some wine tasting & depending on the time of year maybe even a little work on the vines . You can also buy some wine for drinking during your holiday or to take home at the end of your stay . Nimes , Montpellier & Marseilles are just 3 of the cities which are easily reached as well as the beaches on the coast or the skiing in the Cevennes. Please visit our website for detailed information about the many attractions & places worth visiting in the Languedoc region . There is one small shop / bakery in Canaules where you can get your fresh baguettes , croissants etc. each morning . To find it just walk down the village past the town hall & the Post Office & take the only left turn that you see . To walk from La Bastide de l’Amandier to the shop/bakery takes about 3 minutes . There is a well stocked small supermarket in nearby Lezan plus 2 larger supermarkets ( Lidl & Intermarché ) a little further on in Saint Christol . Local activities golf, cycling, horse riding, tennis, swimming, fishing, walking, mountaineering, mountain biking Food & Drink : While there are no restaurants or bars actually in the village of Canaules you are litterally surrounded by other small villages & towns which have an abundance of places for eating & drinking . One of our favourites is the small bar / restaurant in Saint-Jean-De-Serres which is just 2 kilometres away. Christian & Brigitte will look after you well when you tell them you are staying at La Bastide . You can also get really good take-away pizza here . A little further on in Ledignan (5km’s) there are a couple of places to eat & drink as well as another pizza take-away . For a selection of Bars & Restaurant’s there is of course nearby Lezan which is just 4 kilometres away . Sauve (11 km’s away) has some very good restaurants hidden among it’s narrow streets as has it’s next door neighbour - Quissac (10.4 km’s from Canaules) where you will also find a nice fast food / take-away. So all in all - No shortage of choice as far as eating & drinking goes . For a real treat you should visit the nearby mountain village of Monoblet where chef Eric in the local restaurant produces some really lovely food . Please visit our website at www.canaules.com
