Our Village

Trausse Minervois is an old village built around a tower. The village is not very big, it has only 450 inhabitants, but there are lots of interesting alleyways and paths to explore through the village. It is ideal for hide & seek! Outside the village there are vines everywhere, but depending on the season you will also come across fig trees, almonds, olives and cherries. This part of the languedoc is famous for cherries and there are cherry orchards in the area.

Biking is good, there are plenty of metalled roads through the vineyards, and for the more adventurous there is the Montaigne Noir to explore. You can cycle into them directly from the village. There is a windmill nearby on the road to Felines Minervois from where you can see Trausse. Within the village there is a grocery shop where you can buy most things including bread, milk, cheese and wine. You can walk to the shop.

The village also gets a daily visit from a baker in Pyriac and a van drives around the village with bread. The van drives past the front gate of the house and you simply flag it down and buy your bread.
