In the wine village of Faugères, Maison Capitelle blends the warmth of tradition with modern comforts. Once a working wine-maker’s house, this characterful Languedoc home now offers a charming retreat with its private pool, flower-filled garden and air-conditioned bedrooms, just moments from local vineyards and village life.
Inside, the home unfolds across two main levels. Thoughtfully restored, the living spaces feel relaxed. The bright sitting room leads out to an elevated terrace with sweeping views, while the colourful kitchen encourages long, leisurely meals chez vous. Three inviting bedrooms, all air-conditioned, ensure restful nights even in the height of summer, complemented by two family bathrooms.
Outdoors, relax on the elevated terrace or follow the staircase down to the swimming pool and flower-filled garden. There’s a summer kitchen with a fridge to keep your drinks cool as well as a barbecue. Meanwhile, table tennis adds a playful touch.
Maison Capitelle’s location invites you to experience the best of southern France at an unhurried pace. In the village of Faugères, known for its namesake wines, you are a just stroll from a café-restaurant and cellar doors. Spend mornings walking to the organic boulangerie just outside the village and exploring the village windmills, then venture to Béziers, Pézenas and the golden beaches of the Mediterranean, just 40 minutes away.
Whether you’re here to discover the surrounding vineyards, dip into regional markets or simply relax in an authentic village setting, Maison Capitelle offers a welcoming base in southern France.
- Air-conditioning is featured in the bedrooms only.
- Due to the stairs (internal staircase with no handrail and exterior staircase down to the pool area), this village house is best suited to guests who can safely manage stairs (and probably not young children/toddlers).
