Other Details to Note

Please remember that you're staying in an airbnb, not a hotel. Please treat the space with respect. If any problems arise, we will do our best to take action ASAP. The shared pool is open seasonally (May to October). Two double beds are on mezzanines above the living room. These are accessible via a spiral staircase. This works well for families or friends but doesn’t provide the same privacy as the ensuite bedrooms, and and may not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility. Couvent des Ursulines can host up to 32 guests in 5 apartments. Each unit sleeps 6-8 guests.

Neighborhood

Click ‘Show Host Guidebook' below for my personal recommendations. When you make a reservation, you will get an extensive digital guidebook with all relevant information of the Couvent, Pézenas and the surrounding area. Couvent des Ursulines is located in a quiet, residential area just a 10-minute walk from the lively historic center of Pézenas—a picturesque town in the heart of the Occitanie region in southern France. Known for its cobblestone streets, artisan shops, and centuries-old architecture, Pézenas offers the perfect mix of charm, culture, and convenience. This attractive old town is unspoiled by modern development, with narrow streets to explore and grand 17th-century houses. Its town center was one of the first in France to be protected as a historic monument. Pézenas was once the home of Molière and still carries the spirit of creativity in its theaters, antique markets, and art galleries. Each Saturday, the streets come alive with one of the best open-air markets in the region—offering everything from fresh produce and baked goods to handmade crafts and textiles. When evening falls, enjoy dinner at one of the many bistros or wine bars, featuring regional cuisine and local vintages. In summer, the town hosts weekly wine festivals and cultural events that make every night feel like a celebration. Pézenas is also the ideal base for day trips to nearby Mediterranean beaches (just 20 minutes away), wine tours through scenic vineyards, and visits to nearby historical gems such as Agde, Béziers, Sète, Carcassonne, Montpellier, Minerve, Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert, and the legendary Canal du Midi.

Entire apartment & shared spaces are included in this rental. Please, make yourself at home. Our property has a Walk score of 95 out of 100!

Un bel endroit très agréable pour quelques jours en famille ou entre amis. Le choix de l'aménagement contraste avec l'histoire du lieu et cela se marie parfaitement Le gros + c'est la proximité du centre-ville 5min à pied et un parking privé à disposition. Thomas nous as chaleureusement reçu grâce à son ton amical et proactif Je recommande +++

Très beau lieu, très bien équipé. Nous avons passé un très beau séjour. L’extérieur est très agréable. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le contact avec le gérant dispo au besoin et d’une grande gentillesse.

A lovely apartment in the idyllic setting of an old monastery. With a great pool and a charming village within walking distance. But above all: the amazing host: Warren! During our stay, our car broke down and had to be taken to a garage. Warren immediately stepped in like a true holiday saver. He helped us find a trustworthy mechanic, arranged transport, came along to translate, and even made sure we could stay an extra night at the monastery when the repair ended up taking longer than expected. All of that meant we still had a fantastic stay and we were even able to celebrate our youngest daughter’s birthday completely stress-free, even though it happened right in the middle of all the car trouble. A huge thank you! We 100% recommend this place!

Sehr sauber, gepflegt und tolle, angenehme Atmosphäre! Es gibt von den meisten Küchenutensilien genau 8. War beim kochen ungeschickt und man war ständig am spülen. Die Messer waren nicht scharf.
