Siran area:
Siran is a picturesque village near Olonzac, in the heart of the Minervois wine growing district. A small and welcoming village of approximately 600 residents with a network of narrow streets at its centre. The house overlooks Siran’s ancient church that has a clock tower which is a remnant of the former Castle of Siran.
Though small, Siran has a few local shops you may want to know about: the boulangerie (for daily fresh bread, savouries and patisserie) is just 2 mins from the house as is the Vival Grocery! The "Le Minervois Bar" recently renovated is a good place for a coffee or something stronger. Furthermore there is a post office, several wine producers, the village pump and a well preserved weighbridge! Siran also has the original Chateau of Siran that is now a first class hotel / restaurant.

Surrounding Area:
One of the neighbouring villages of Homps, a five-minute drive away, is a port on the Canal du Midi, the historic 17th century waterway that links the Mediterranean to the Atlantic. It is one of the most scenic ways to travel through the surrounding landscape of vineyards and pinewoods. Small motorboats can be rented, or there are day trips on old barges to the city of Béziers near the coast and Carcassonne to the west.

Beaches:
There are plenty of clean, sandy, shallow beaches along the whole coast. The nearest are about 35 mins drive away.

Rivers for Swimming:
The beautiful spot of Bize-Minervois is very pretty. The water is cold but usually very clear.
If you follow the road up towards Agel, there is another lovely river spot about 1 km before Agel.
Before Bize the river at the Cabezac bridge is also very pretty and shallow.
Heading towards Lagrasse in the Corbieres, the little waterfalls, rapids and shallows in the river at Ribaute is a very picturesque spot.
