The Experience

Rob and Jason left demanding jobs to turn this graceful 19th-century merchant’s house into an elegant, relaxed home. Stone stairs curve to two floors of bedrooms, soft with silvery colours, chandeliers and chic bathrooms. Balconies with French windows look over the town or gardens of the nearby château. Painted in the subtle hues of Farrow & Ball and beautifully beamed, the open-plan living space is coolly stylish with antique mirrors, books and oversize table lamps.

The kitchen is sleek, sociable and well-equipped for self-caterers, or B&B guests get breakfasts of fruit, breads, cheese and eggs on request. Ask about day trips; explore harbours and beaches. If you stay for a week you’ll even be invited on their speedboat – perhaps topped off with a visit to one of their favourite restaurants. Gentle hosts, serene surroundings, a communal apéritif on some days.

Visit pop-up beach cafés, oyster bars, wander to the town square.

Reviews

In sweet little Mèze on the Thau Lagoon where oyster beds decorate the gleaming water, is this fine old townhouse. Charming, chatty Rob and Jason will greet you with juice and expert guidance to local delights. Chandeliers hang in smart grey and silver rooms - one with its own terrace; modern bathrooms are original. You will find real comfort here - and riches out there in lovely Languedoc.

What a wonderful place to stay. Jason and Rob are the best hosts, so welcoming and informative, very laid back, making our holiday everything it should be. A beautiful house just a few minutes walk from everything in lovely Meze. The beach, restaurants, and twice weekly market on the doorstep. Perfect!

PAM, CHESHIRE Sep 2017

Lovely house, hosts & welcome. We were in Mimi on top floor which was a luxurious room with a very comfy bed, roll top bath & sep shower and even beach towels in bag! The large communal first floor is a beautiful space with interesting books and feels like a home even for a short visit. The guys are great company if you want to chat and offer complimentary wine and tea & coffee and nibbles. They really have thought of everything in creating this gem and we enjoyed a lovely stay and look forward to returning.

Location

The neighbourhood

Mèze is an active little ex-fishing town with an old château and a newly-planted municipal garden. You're very near the main square so you can walk to shops, cafés and markets. Hire bikes and set off round the Étang de Thau, learn to sail or kayak down the Hérault rapids (depending on the water levels), or hurl yourself in for a wild swim. The Languedoc awaits exploration, as do vineyards.

Local points of interest from Rob Budden & Jason Clifford

Mèze Maison is a 19th century wine merchant's house that used to belong to the local chateau de Girard. It sits in the centre of the old town overlooking the castle and its gardens, a short walk to all amenities.
L'étang de thau lagoon with opportunities for swimming, fishing, kayaking and sailing is less than a five minute stroll from the property. Book a week's stay with us and we will take you out on our speedboat, maybe to a waterside restaurant!
Mèze is home to a wide array of restaurants, many serving fish and shellfish from the l'étang de thau. The lagoon provides France with its renowned Bouzigues oyster which is often served with the local Picpoul wine.
Mèze is surrounded by vineyards, many of which produce award-winning wines. We can advise on which domaines to visit for wine tastings and tours.
Mèze is a short drive away from the medieval town of Pézenas, once home to the playwright Molière. The vibrant city of Montpellier with its leafy squares and wide esplanade is a 30 minute drive. Both have good bus links
Mèze has a daily indoor market and a twice weekly outdoor market (Thursdays and Sundays) selling local produce and arts and crafts. There is a local cinema which shows French and English language films. There is a weekly night market in the summer.

Introducing

Rob Budden & Jason Clifford

Rob and Jason, who met at university, are chatty and welcoming - they clearly love having guests. They moved here permanently in 2013 and have never regretted it. They both speak French and have thoroughly immersed themselves in the Languedoc, so do ask them about the best places to eat and things to do.
