Location

 

The house is in the small hamlet of Arles-sur-tech.  Arles-sur-tech is situated in the south  eastern area of the Pyrenees-Orientales within the Languedoc-Roussilon region.  Situated at the foothills of the Pyrénées which run in the east down to the Mediterranean coast and to the west to the heights of Andorra.
The area boasts 300 days of sunshine per year.  Not only are the spring, summer and autumns exceptional times of the year, but the close proximity to over 20 ski resorts in the French Pyrénées, not to mention Spain and Andorra, make winter an exciting time to be in Arles-sur-tech.
Skiing on the French side of the Pyrénées is one and a half hours away while Andorra is a further hour.  The Spanish border is half an hour and the Mediterranean coast forty minutes.
