Le Mas de Lignières

A small family naturist centre created in 1987 by Jeanne and Gilles around an old mas on the southern slope of the causse, in the Haut-Languedoc regional park, among the vineyards of the Minervois. Just 28 pitches bordered by hedges (the 200 m² "grand confort" ones with water, drainage and electricity) plus six rental units: the deliberately small scale is its character. A pool that can be covered, a refreshment bar with terrace, evening pétanque on the floodlit pitch, Wi-Fi only in the common areas by choice; all around, garrigue of thyme and rosemary, wild orchids in spring, eagles and vineyards, with tastings at the winegrowers', guided walks, the Canal du Midi and Narbonne-Plage within day-trip reach. FFN-approved and rated 3 stars. Those who have stayed describe an extremely quiet place — almost too quiet for those looking for some life — with Jeanne's warm welcome as a constant; the only drawback mentioned: narrow access for large caravans.
