The Experience

A great spot for two in this unspoilt, cobbled fishing village, home of the Fauve artists. You walk from the street into the old fisherman’s house on four floors, with smooth oak floors and plenty of space. A bright, uncluttered kitchen leads to a spiral staircase and your bedroom with good lighting, full length windows and a smart mosaic-tiled bathroom.

Up more stairs is the peaceful living room which has two large sofas, works by local artists and a view out to a blue-shuttered house. Keep going up to find another sitting room with big sliding glass doors onto the sunny terrace with views to the bay and mountains; this is the best place for a sundowner and you’ll find a bottle of rosé waiting for you.

Step from the door into the old town, amble to two beaches, plenty of good Catalan restaurants, cafés, a modern art museum and twice-weekly markets. Gather up delicious local produce and bring it back to cook up a storm.

Reviews

We loved the character and charm of this old fishing cottage, especially the crow's nest feel of the roof terrace with its views across the bay. One could not ask for a better position to access all the amenities which this stunning seaside artistic village has to offer.

David, Haslemere

We were lucky to return to spend a week in this charming house - it’s a little gem! The location couldn’t be better: a beautiful quiet street just a short walk from beaches, great restaurants and local sights. The house is very comfortable, full of character and had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. Thank you Maria for all your help and for letting us enjoy your lovely home.


Catherine, Hertfordshire

We have just returned from a wonderful week in Collioure. The house was on a beautiful cobbled lane with beautiful flowers. The house was unique and had all the facilities we needed with a comfortable bed, good shower and wonderful terrace. The location was just perfect, close to beaches and restaurants. Collioure was a very special place and I will be retuning. A big thanks to Maria who provided brilliant info and recommendations about the area. A truly wonderful break.


Nick, Newcastle under Lyme

We found Collioure to be a lovely place to visit, with 14 Rue du Mirador within one of the prettiest streets. The area was very clean, with plenty of local art, restaurants and shops. Although we managed to find shops that catered for vegans, it was harder to find restaurants that were accommodating, although not impossible. The house had plenty of charm, was clean and well equipped. The only negative being there is no air conditioning so it was a struggle with the weather being so hot.


Jayne, Leeds

We spent a lovely week in Maria’s fabulous house in Collioure. The house is very comfortable and very well equipped. We loved sitting on the roof terrace with a glass of wine after a day pottering about the village and exploring the area. The location is great with everything to hand in easy walking distance. We went to the twice weekly market and it was lovely to stock up on provisions and stroll by the sea back to the house. All in all a super relaxing holiday and we would not hesitate to go back.


Location

The neighbourhood

A privileged position in a row of fisherman's cottages, right in the heart of one of France's most enchanting and iconic resorts, once home to Les Fauves and very busy in high summer. You are surrounded by art galleries, craft shops, seaside restaurants and cafés, but set back just a little from the main shopping hub. Collioure has lots to do and there are two beaches.

Local points of interest from Maria Parviz

  • Collioure is known as the jewel of the Mediterranean, there's plenty to see and do all year round. From Jan-Dec there are festivals, events, music and art exhibitions. Check with the Tourist Board to see what's happening during your stay.
  • Relax on the beaches, explore the forts, the windmill or the Museum of Modern Art. If you want something more active then there's diving, windsurfing, kayaking, tennis, cycling, boat trips & scenic coastal walks.
  • There are usually 2 spectacular fireworks displays in the summer: the Festival of St Jean in June and the festival of St Vincent in August
  • If you want to travel further, Ceret is a lovely town with a very good Museum of Modern Art. The Spanish border is only 30 minutes away, take the coastal road to Cadaques and visit the Dali Museum. Girona is also worth a day trip.
  • If you haven't got a car, there's a great bus service, and the train station is only 10 minutes walk from the house.
  • The house is just a minute away from two beaches. Shops, restaurants, cafes and bars are just a couple of minutes away

Introducing

Maria Parviz

Maria bought the cottage many years ago and renovated it with loving care. She and her partner David are based in the UK but come to the property themselves whenever they can, which is probably why it has such a homely, personal feel.
