Marseillan & a Lot of Languedoc: Lazy France: How to be Very Very Lazy in Marseillan and a Lot of Languedoc - Softcover
Synopsis
Life begins with lunch and the lazy journey brings the best views. So says Laurence Phillips in this award winning travel guide and great read that was voted Guidebook of the Year 2011 by the British Guild of Travel Writers. In what is part diary, part secret address book, multi-award-winning author Laurence Phillips shares his favourite places with gossip, witty observations and passion for the Languedoc lifestyle. Memories of local families, first impressions of strangers and plenty of tales learnt of long lingering lunches. Find the restaurant in Montpellier where you cook your own lunch in the kitchen, and meet a market stallholder in Beziers who will take your shopping and make you a meal then and there. Spend a week exploring the Canal du Midi, relive the ages of crusaders and Cathar heretics, discover a hidden Jewish heritage trail and find the seaside inspiration of a generation of impressionists and modern artists. Besides Marseillan's sights, sites and stories, discover over 150 places to eat & drink, 40 pages on the local wines & tipples. This insider's guide for travelling to and around the Languedoc includes 200 pages on other towns and villages across the region, two dozen beaches and has great ideas for City days in Montpellier, Sete, Agde, Beziers and more. Find simple quayside restaurants. Let lunch slip into supper and kiss your bonsoirs after another memorable bottle of wine. Dance with the winemakers or watch the seafarers of Marseillan water-jousting and taking the challenge of the Capelet greasy pole. Whether mooching in markets or mulling in museums, buying cheese from the goatherd in the hills, wine from the vigneron at the corner and oysters and fish from the pecheur who lives along the lane
