Acanthus is a wonderful holiday home located in the small village of St. Chinian in the Languedoc region of France. Langueduc is full of medieval villages, rivers, hills, vineyards, the Canal Du Midi and there is much to see. I have stayed in Acanthus six times and always look forward to my visit there. It is a beautifully furnished, very clean pleasant home with many personal touches. There is a large living room that has sun coming in on two sides and a small balcony. It has all of the amenities - books. TV, movies, radio, CD player. It is a wonderful place to relax. I love the kitchen, which is old fashioned but has everything you need. It even has a pantry. The second floor has two large bedrooms with comfortable beds and nice furnishings. The bathroom is a marvel. It is very large and are attractively furnished. There is also a bathroom on the ground floor and a washing machine, iron and ironing board. Acanthus has the feel of a French village house but still has many modern touches. The owners are exceptional. They are available and helpful. They have furnished the house with information about the area and are always ready to answer questions and help whenever they can. They take pride in providing a nice home for people on holiday and they do everything they can to make your stay there a good one. Acanthus is located in the center of St. Chinian and easy walking distance to the shops, bakeries, restaurants and banks. My favorite is the outdoor market on Thursday and Sunday morning. I look forward to the market every year when I arrive. There is fresh produce, jams, cheese, meat, fish, olives, etc. Everything you might need. After the market, you can set on the square and have coffee. St. Chinian is in a valley and in quite a beautiful and interesting area. Languedoc has a fascinating history and it is possible to take in the sights without going too far from St Chinian. And if you have questions about anything just ask the owners of Acanthus.
