This co-ownership property also quickly sold out IN 2006 and the original owner group still LOVE MAV and rarely part with a share. You will love this home as it is a stunningly beautiful property with a private garden where you can enjoy your favorite rose or apéritif.

About 10 years ago, Moulin a Vent was expanded to double its original size and was lovingly furnished with a combination of French antiques, wicker and pine furniture, firm beds, and unique lighting. For those who find stairs daunting, this is my only fractional property with a bedroom and living area on the ground floor.

In Quarante, the 11th Century Eglise Sainte-Marie is well known as a stopping point on the pilgrim’s route, Santiago de Compostela. As a wine makers village, it’s a treat to visit during the “vendange” (grape harvest) when tractor after tractor of local grapes make their way to the Cave Cooperative. Their wine is part of the St. Chinian appelation.

The lively local festival of the running of the bulls (la fête taurine) takes place in June. For the fête, the village erects steel barriers. The village square outside the church offers non-stop refreshments, long tables for enjoying the company of fellow villagers, and a brass band. This type of running of the bulls is called the abrivado. The tradition is particular to this part of France, in and near the Camargue region.
