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.
Inspected Mark Sawday's Inspector

Tim, Hartley. Kent

Via the train from Montpellier Airport, we were delighted to discover the gem that is Collioure and this beautifully restored Fisherman’s Townhouse. Moments from the beach, the property is full of character and finished to a very high standard. Maria Parviz and her husband David have gone out of their way to ensure that their guests can enjoy a comfortable and relaxing stay yet you are also only steps away from a great selection of bars, restaurants, shops and water-sports. We would highly recommend this property to another couple looking to discover this hidden gem in the Pyrénées-Orientales.


Jo, London

Beautifully proportioned townhouse, stunning decor, well equipped kitchen. A short stroll for an early morning dip, return via the baker for the freshest croissant and bread you will have ever had, aperitifs on the sun deck look at the superb view over the med, numerous dining options taking in vistas of the Chateau, Castle and Church. Hike through the vine clad hills, or day trip to Gerona if you can pull yourself away from your sun bed on the beach. Fabulous!


Andrew

We had a wonderful stay in this gorgeous french village. The house was superbly located with great character and well cared for. We would definitely recommend it and hope to return one day.


David, Chester

Ideally located close to the centre of Collioure, only a few minutes walk from the harbour, shops, restaurants and the twice weekly market. Collioure is a blend of French and Spanish influences, with a Catalan character. The house is well equipped comfortable and on a picturesque narrow street, with art galleries close by.


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.
