Nourish the soul

Chalabre is made up of a small, square-shaped medieval quarter of small streets with the Market in its centre. The bordering avenues are lined with plane trees, chestnut trees and fountains. This beautiful, calm village is the perfect place to relax and watch the world go slowly by, yet with all the amenities on your doorstep, provides a superb location to enjoy the exquisite environment that Yobaba Lounge provides.

Chalabre, a medieval bastide in Cathar country

In the very south of France, the stunning area of Languedoc Roussillon - Hérault, Aude, Gard and Pyrénées Orientales - has everything you could possibly want within 30 minutes drive from wherever you might be located. Bordering the Mediterranean Sea, there are miles of sandy beaches, and on the plane expansive vineyards stretch toward the mountains, dotted with almond and olive trees, where more than 40% of France’s wine is produced and is the largest vine growing area in the world.

The climate is typically Mediterranean with mild winters and dry summers, and is France’s sunniest area with 300 days of sunshine each year.

Spend your day cooking, eating and lounging about. Explore the local castles, mountains and pilgramage paths. Play in the river behind the house or walk up to the Chapel where the route to Santiago di Compostella passes on its way to the Abbey du Camon.

Bank, shops, pharmacy, butcher, bakery and more are all in walking distance in the village.

With direct flights to Carcassonne, Toulouse, Montpellier and Perpignan airports, and excellent rail and TGV links to Paris, Lille & London, Languedoc-Rousillon is easily accessible.
