Hérault (number 34) is part of the Occitanie region and borders the departments of Aude, Tarn, Aveyron, Gard, and the Mediterranean Sea (Gulf of Lion) to the south. The department features a diverse landscape, with beaches in the south, the Cévennes mountains in the north, and farmland in between. From the Mediterranean coast to the towering peaks of the Upper Languedoc National Park, Hérault's natural environment invites exploration. Discover hidden trails lined with ancient oaks, climb dramatic cliffs overlooking secluded waterfalls, or paddle along scenic rivers dotted with charming villages. Swim in the crystal-clear waters of Lake du Salagou, a turquoise gem set among volcanic rocks, or surf the azure Mediterranean waves. Hérault offers many advantages: it is the sunniest region in France, with about 300 days of sunshine annually, though strong winds can occur elsewhere in the area.

The Gem of Languedoc

Hérault's charm goes beyond stunning landscapes. Vibrant towns like Montpellier, Béziers, Pézenas, and Clermont-l'Hérault invite you to explore cobbled streets and enjoy their lively markets. Immerse yourself in the region's unique history, from the Roman aqueduct of Pont du Gard to the fortified walls of Carcassonne in neighbouring Aude.

Treat yourself to the art of living the good life à la française – raising glasses with locals over a glass of locally-produced wine, sampling fresh oysters amidst harbour chatter, and inhaling the scent of lavender drifting through sun-drenched fields.

Between Coast and Nature

We have many properties in traditional villages among the vineyards, between the Mediterranean coast and the spectacular Languedoc National Park. Our properties are primarily located in the Béziers, Montpellier, Clermont-l'Hérault, Gignac, Lamalou, Pézenas, Orb Valley, and Saint-Chinian areas.

Within a 13-mile radius, you can find beaches, the Upper Languedoc National Park with mountains, cliffs, waterfalls, rivers, a lake, registered beaux villages, traditional markets, and many more curiosities to see and enjoy. Picture yourself lounging by your own swimming pool, grilling local delights on a terrace, or sipping coffee with loved ones on a balcony overlooking vineyards.

Common House Styles in the Hérault Department

  • Winegrower Houses: Traditional homes attached to vineyards, often featuring stone or brick facades, functional layouts for winemaking, cellars for ageing wine, courtyards for storage, and tiled roofs.
  • Maisons de Maître: Elegant, detached manor houses built for wealthy landowners, often set on large plots with landscaped gardens. These homes boast high ceilings, ornate mouldings, and wrought-iron balconies, and many have been restored to preserve period features while adding modern comforts.
  • Apartments: Buyers will find both period apartments and modern new-builds, many with balconies or terraces, offering an alternative to the gardens of detached houses.
