The charming village of Siran, with a population of approximately 600, is set in the heart of the Minervois
wine growing region. Siran has a small local supermarket, a boulangerie & a friendly bar which serves
bar meals & regularly has live music. The village also has two excellent restaurants. Siran
has an anual village fete which is usually held over the first weekend of July & includes stalls, live music, dancing & wine from the area.
Siran village is 2km from the Pepieux leisure lake for swimming, boating and wind surfing. A short drive
to the north east brings you to the beautiful fortified citadel of Minerve with its ramparts and deep canyons. Alternatively, a short drive south will bring you to the tree lined banks of the Canal du Midi. A 30 to 45 minute drive will take you to the Mediterranean coast & the excellent beaches of Narbonne, Gruissan & Valras.
The walled city of Carcassonne with its narrow streets, museums, bars & restaurants is just 30 minutes away by car. Just outside the city is Carcassonne Plage, a man made beach on a fresh water lake ideal for
a family day out. Siran Church
