Collioure la nuit

Welcome in the Pyrenees Orientals (Eastern) and good holidays under the sun of the Catalan country.

Situated in the south of Languedoc Roussillon, I is a beautiful region and a true land of character that welcomes you.

Full of charm and magic the back country is a real meeting between art and History with its Cathar Castles, its gorges and fortresses and priories.

Go and discover the treasures of the Roman architecture and the colours of the Catalan landscape by visiting its calss villages among which there are the nicest in France : Collioure, Castelnou, Villefranche de Conflent, Eus, ...

For the lovers of old stones the nearest places round the Orangeraie will impress you :
Collioure is the jewel of the Vermeille coast with its Royal castle, its colourful streets with souvenirs of the most famous painters, Port Vendres and its fish sale by auction , Banyuls and its Maritime Natural Reserve, its coves.

We won’t forget the Catalogna on the Spanish side, it’s less than one hour drive, Figueras and Cadaques, Salvador Dali’s places that want to seduce you and the fascinating Barcelona, two hours far with its inimitable Gaudi architectures.

The unique Medieval city of Carcassonne is one hour far from Claira, offers more than one idea to wonder to everyone, young and old people.

Stirring with lights, music and perfumes, the Roussillon waits for you to escape with Mediterranean accents.
