Why they chose this property
Durban Corbieres is in the well known languedoc wine region of France and is set in a hilly area with beautiful views and marked walking routes . In Durban Corbieres there is a Cathar Castle on the hill in the old part of the village.
The small river runs through the middle of the village - separating the old from the new. There are several local wine and honey producers from whom you can buy local produce. The region does have a Spanish influence both in language and cuisine. There are festivals in Durban and the surrounding villages in August and before Christmas.
Younger visitors - there is a wild life park at Sigean (20 mins) and aqua sports on the Mediterranean coast ( Le Franqui beach 25 mins)
For the adventurous there is water skiing, wakeboarding and other water sports at a number of the coastal resorts, or Skiing , white water rafting, canyoning etc in the Pyrenees as well as many thermal spas.
Cycling is very popular here also - due to the lovely winding roads through the vineyards and hills.
