"With the Med furnishing fish, the Thau lagoon full of oysters and mussels, it’s not hard to work out what the local specialities are. But there’s also great lamb and beef from the uplands, and Pélardon goat’s cheese besides…”

Eating is a highly social affair in France, and well-practiced in the Languedoc. It’s common for work to stop for at least a couple of hours at lunchtime, and for visitors to the region it’s not hard to feel obliged!

We’re fortunate to have excellent places to dine in the village. In two minutes, you can stroll to 'L'Escampette' village bar or take a table at the renowned restaurant 'Les Goutailles'. Even closer to home, use the shaded summer kitchen to enjoy your own lunch of local produce.

Languedoc is home to France's best oysters - grown in massive beds in the Etang de Thau, just 30 minutes from Maison Dix. Here, you’ll find many restaurants lining the bay, where the quality is exceptional but competition and supply means unbelievable value for money.

Unsurprisingly Sète, with it’s large fishing fleet, offers the widest selection of waterside restaurants specialising in freshly-caught seafood.
